IGN • • technology
Key Points:
- Activision confirmed that Call of Duty: Black Ops 1 and 2 ports support crossplay between PS4 and PS5, allowing multiplayer matchmaking across these PlayStation platforms.
- Players with Season Passes can also matchmake with those without, but there is no crossplay with PS3 or other hardware platforms.
- Despite initial confusion and criticism over low frame rates, resolution, and perceived lack of crossplay, the games quickly became best-sellers on the PlayStation Store.
- Both titles are priced at $39.99, with a limited-time PlayStation Plus discount bringing the price to $19.99, and their DLC available separately.
- Activision continues to develop the Call of Duty series with the upcoming release of Modern Warfare 4, while fans revisit the classic Black Ops games through these re-releases.
