As I suspected after the out-of-the-blue Nuketown DLC, apparently it's not coming:

Ah well, looks like I'll be playing the Bayonetta 1 remaster and maybe Sonic Boom/90s Arcade Racer/Art of Balance/Watch Dogs for November instead.


there you go, its pretty much what ive been saying for a while. Think of COD for Ninty systems as a struggling TV, they are always skirting the line between getting renewed for a season and getting outright cancelled sometimes down to the minute. Its the same thing here.

It was obviously profitable in the past, or it wouldn't have taken until after the 7th Wii/Wii U COD to get the axe.

i never said otherwise. but at some point it stopped being profitable, hell i would argue that it just broke even most of the time and now it isnt even doing that hence the cancellation

Ghosts may not have broken even, but previous ones would have or they would've been the last. Another factor could be that more resources have been allocated to PS4/Xbone development this time around, compared to previous years. Wii U was the lowest priority version, so it was the first to go. (Even PS3/360 got outsourced this year)

thats fair. forgot the PS360 versions were outsourced. I imagine they would be the next to go. they might get one more

I reckon we'll still see a PS3/360 COD next year, simply cos it's more of a casual game and plenty of folks who haven't upgraded yet will buy it. 2016 though I'm not so sure, that might be the first 8th gen exclusive COD.

I agree with that. 2016 will probably be the first COD not to come to 7th gen consoles (excluding the obvious old ones).
