Sony is gearing up to boost the sales of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 on its consoles, and this latest move is proof of that. The Japanese console giant is set to launch a PlayStation 5 bundle featuring the much-anticipated Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 - which is particularly interesting against the backdrop of Microsoft's successful acquisition of Activision-Blizzard.
However, there's a twist in the tale. While Sony has confirmed the release of the Modern Warfare 3 PlayStation 5 console bundle, it has remained tight-lipped about the specifics of the console included in the bundle. Just a day prior, Sony unveiled a new, slimmer PS5 design, which comes in two variants.
One is the standard slim PS5 with a Blu-ray disc drive priced at $499, and the other is a Digital Edition without a disc drive retailing at $449. This ambiguity has led to some speculation - is Sony using the Modern Warfare 3 bundle to clear out stock of the original model to pave the way for the slimmer one? Or is it trying to get the sales of the slim PS5 variants moving?
