CTOnews.com, December 8 (Xinhua) in order to remove some obstacles to the acquisition of Activision Blizzard, Microsoft previously said it had offered Sony a 10-year agreement to continue to provide "call of Duty" on the PS platform, as well as similar agreements with Nintendo and Steam platforms. In response, V Club boss Gabriel Newell (G Fat) responded that Valve is glad that Microsoft wants to continue to provide "call of Duty" on Steam, but it is actually not necessary to write it on paper in an agreed manner.

"Microsoft has proposed and even sent us a draft agreement on call of Duty's long-term commitment, but it is not necessary for us because: a) We do not need to ask any partners to sign an agreement to lock them on the Steam platform; b) Phil Spencer and Microsoft's game team always implement what they tell us, so we believe their intentions," Newell said. C) We believe that Microsoft is motivated to provide a "call of Duty" for the platforms and devices that players want to use. "

Newell went on to say that Valve was pleased with Microsoft's move. "We think this is a signal that they are satisfied with the reaction of the players and what we are doing. Our job is to continue to build valuable features not only for Microsoft, but also for all Steam customers and partners."

CTOnews.com learned that the call of Duty series had not been available on Steam for years, and Activision chose to release the series on PC through its own initiator, so it didn't have to pay a cut on the Steam platform. Activision changed its policy this year and launched "Modern Warfare II" on Steam. The game has been a great success on Steam, and V Society has naturally benefited a lot.
