PlayStation fans are in a tizzy as potential price tags for Call of Duty: Black Ops 1 and 2 ports have surfaced online, sparking concerns about costly purchases. With Xbox and PC listing these classic titles at $40 each, the fear is real that PS4 and PS5 players might face similar prices, without even including the DLC.
The buzz began when Microsoft updated its marketplace, setting a $39.99 price for each game. While Xbox players have long enjoyed backward compatibility, the update also brought DLC price adjustments, making them $10 instead of $15, and trimming season passes down to $30 from $50. Yet, with Activision planning to roll out PS4 and PS5 ports in July, fans worry about forking out big bucks for decade-old games. If you’re curious about other pricing updates, check out how SanDisk’s new PS5 SSDs have also stirred up some chatter.
The lack of official pricing details from Activision has only fueled the fire, leaving fans speculating if they’ll need to shell out $80 for both games, not to mention an additional $60 for season passes. This uncertainty echoes the restructuring chaos over at Xbox, where studios face possible shutdowns.
So, what’s next? Keep an eye on Activision’s announcements for any updates. In the meantime, you might want to explore some new Xbox Game Pass titles to tide you over.
