　　The IGN report explains that since that picture was tweeted, the Xbox website has been updated to say that MW3 will be playable on the Xbox One, and it'll also be playable on the PlayStation 4 when it launches later this year.

　　Not much is known about MW3, but it has been confirmed that Makarov will be the new (and nostalgic) villain players will face off against, and MW3 will be officially revealed in a Warzone event on August 17.
