The official Xbox site appears to think the Xbox One version of Call of Duty: Ghosts will release on 5th November, well that's according to the guys from OXM. Remember, remember the 5th of November.
Update:
Wallmart has updated their own Xbox ONE Day One pre-order page with the following info "pre-order this item today and it should ship on 11/26/2013." Mmmm. Sounds about right huh?
The game has been confirmed as an Xbox One launch title. Has Microsoft prematurely revealed the date that its next gen console goes on sale?
This may of course be a simple case of mixed messaging, of course - the date may apply to the Xbox 360 version, not its next generation cousin. The page in question is awash with Xbox One branding, however, with nary a squeak of Xbox 360.
Infinity Ward executive producer Mark Rubin confirmed that COD: Ghosts would be a launch title on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon in June. According to previous Microsoft marketing materials, Xbox One will go on sale at some point in November, in time for the Christmas shopping rush.
Take this news with a pinch of salt until further announcements. That said, if there was any game Microsoft would want to launch the Xbox One alongside, Call of Duty: Ghosts would probably be it, don't you think?
Activision announced this week that fans who pre-order Call of Duty: Ghosts will receive the "Free Fall" downloadable bonus map which includes the highly anticipated multiplayer mode with destructible dynamic map events.
Dynamic Map “Free Fall” Delivers New Multiplayer Experience As Players Encounter Constantly Changing Environment
The franchise that has defined a generation of gaming, and the one set to raise the bar yet again on the 5th of November, is delivering a compelling, all-new pre-order incentive for Call of Duty: Ghosts’ highly anticipated multiplayer mode. Available exclusively at GAME in the UK and Gamestop in Ireland, fans that pre-order the game will receive the Free Fall downloadable bonus map that features the new dynamic map event mechanic, included with their copy of the game at launch. Free Fall ushers in the first details on how players will encounter the changing environments in the leading multiplayer experience on consoles.
As an example of just one of Call of Duty: Ghosts’ new dynamic map events, Free Fall drops players into a shattered skyscraper on the brink of collapse. Sideways staircases climb into the night sky, elevator shafts run along the ground, and what were once windows now form a terrifying glass floor, hundreds of feet above the city streets. Free Fall’s close-quarters combat and frenetic action are then thrown into overdriveas the ruined skyscraper continues to fall throughout the match. With every drop, the accompanying shockwaves cause further destruction, disrupting sightlines and constantly evolving paths and chokepoints as the map changes in real-time.
"Dynamic map events change the way players approach the game, and Free Fall does a great job illustrating this new mechanic,” said Mark Rubin, executive producer at Infinity Ward. “As the match progresses, the geometry of the world continues to change and players need to adjust on the fly or else. It’s a really fun new feature that adds layers of strategy and constantly evolving gameplay options for players. And this is just one of the many new approaches we’re putting into Ghosts’ multiplayer across the board. There’s so much more that we look forward to sharing in the weeks to come."
