Confusion is arising among players as to whether Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is coming to last-gen consoles.
As spotted on Twitter by YouTuber TheGamingRevolution, the official Xbox page for Modern Warfare III only lists Xbox Series X/S as the game’s planned platforms.
However, TheGamingRevolution also notes that the official PlayStation YouTube account has posted the Modern Warfare 3 teaser trailer with “PS5 & PS4 Games” in the headline. The video also includes the hashtags #ps5, #ps5games, #ps4 and #ps4games.
There are three potential reasons for the discrepancy. The PlayStation YouTube Channel puts either “PS5 Games” or “PS5 & PS4 Games” in all its trailer headlines, so it could be that the employee responsible for naming the videos made an error and included PS4 when the game isn’t coming to that format.
Another possibility is that the game is indeed coming to last-gen systems, and that the Xbox page is therefore at fault.
The third possible reason is that both sites may, in fact, be accurate, and the game may be coming to PS4 but not Xbox One.
