Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare DLC is timed-exclusive to Xbox One

Once again.

Microsoft has opened its E3 2014 conference by showing off new footage of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, and confirming that once again the series' DLC will launch on Xbox One first.

No mention was made of exactly how long the game's add-ons will be Xbox-exclusive, but previous entries in the series have been awarded around one month's lead time on Microsoft's platform.

Set in Seoul, the glimpse of gameplay shown showed a team of commandos survive a helicopter crash only to be attacked by a swarm of killer robots. Players progressed using a car door as a riot shield.

Much of the game's UI has been integrated into the weapons, Dead Space-style. There are also advanced-looking homing grenades.
