A slightly delayed wide release (or removal of exclusivity altogether) could've been a great PR move.
Activision has also continued implementing the battle pass system which is perhaps the least abrasive of all monetization models Call of Duty has employed in recent years. For example, all post-release content for 2019's Modern Warfare has been free including the immensely popular battle royal, Warzone. This was a surprising turn of events for some, considering the strides that have been made by the company in 2019. Many companies are doing their best to give the millions of trapped users something to do during such painful times Activision has their gaze set on profit. The deal was first introduced with the release of 2019's Modern Warfare and its exclusive PlayStation-only survival mode. On the heels of COVID-19 rampaging across the world, forcing people into their homes and riving them of work, Activision releases Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered amidst an ill-advised exclusivity deal with Sony.

On the other hand, it doesn't offer anything beyond a five-or-so hour experience that has been had time and time again. On one hand, it is nostalgic as a callback to the grimy-brown shooters of yore, and it has a lot of value for the millions that still remember Call of Duty as unscathed by the insidious marketing and addicting FOMO of the modern gaming paradigm.
