Xbox One and Xbox 360 players of "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare" will have the advantage in the weapons' release for the upcoming Season Pass. Two weapons will be coming out in December in the form of the first DLC expansion pack for the title.

Charlie Intel was able to spot the announcement, stating that Xbox platform users will get access to one base and one custom weapon, namely the AE4 base weapon and the AE4 Widowmaker. Access to these exclusives will begin on Dec. 11.

Quoting Activision, the source reveals that the first DLC titled "Havoc" will be released as an all-new weapon pack. What players will be getting is the AE4 base weapon, with the "#AEF providing better movement and speed on the battle ground. It would be interesting to see how "Havoc" will look and feel like, but the developer has already advised that AVP details will be announced soon. For now, fans can look forward to a January release of the DLC pack on the Xbox Live.

In related news, "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare" publisher Activision seems to be also cracking down on YouTube video makers who are pointing out the glitches in the game. Eurogamer reports that Machinima, one of the networks responsible for a number of gaming videos over at YouTube, has sent out a warning to partners about Activision's copyright issue following the trend of glitch videos after a title is released.

According to the source, Machinima has mentioned that Activision is now issuing copyright to those who are making videos of exploits and glitches. This is a serious issue, since one strike of copyright alone already puts a person in the red zone, while three strikes can have him locked out of YouTube with all of his videos removed.

"Occasionally, some folks post videos that promote cheating and unfair exploits. As always, we keep an eye out for these videos--our level of video claims hasn't changed," said Activision to Eurogamer in response to the supposedly new action that the publisher is taking.

For now, there are still a couple of glitch videos all over the Internet, but it may just be a matter of time until Activision finds these videos. "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare" may be one of the COD iterations where fans will have to look for their own ways to get the upper hand in the game, especially in the multiplayer mode.
