MS hasn't bought timed DLC since Phil Spencer took over to my knowledge. CoD Ghosts and CoD Advanced Warfare timed DLC deal was part of a multi-year CoD deal made last gen. The Division, Evolve, and Battlefield 4 timed DLC deals were made when Mattrick was still in control afaik. We haven't seen timed exclusive DLC on XB1 in a year and a half now, basically ever since Phil said it was a practice he didn't agree with. Sony on the other hand has done timed or fully exclusive DLC for AC4, AC Syndicate, Watch Dogs, Destiny 1, Destiny 2, Far Cry 5, Arkham Knight, Call of Duty (Black Ops 3, Infinite Warfare, WW2), and MvC Infinite so far this gen, possibly more. |
I would like to know how cost effective is to the brand to buy exclusive rights for DLC.
All the games you mentioned (i think) were bundled with a PS4, so there has to be something more about the deal.
Maybe it is me, but i dont give a shit about DLC.
Unless it is a proper Expansion of the game, like Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine Expansions for The Witcher 3.
But a skin? A side mission? A map?
Like...who cares?
For example, last gen when Microsoft secured The Ballad of Gay Tony and The Lost and Damned for GTA IV.
THAT was the scummiest move ever, specially because GTA 3 was exclusive for Playstation 2.
