Xbox Game Pass has a massive library of games to play, but there are some particularly well-suited for local, split-screen multiplayer.
Call Of Duty Coming To Game Pass Was Inevitable
Black Ops 6 Is Already Confirmed For A Day-One Launch
TheCall of Dutyseries' inclusion on Xbox Game Pass seemed inevitable after Microsoft acquired the series' developer Activision last year, even though there had been some reports that Activision was concerned about the potential loss of revenue that could come from being part of the subscription, considering how lucrative the franchise’s releases usually are, and this could have been part of the decision-making behind the recent price increase, even if Microsoft didn’t state this in its announcement. In May, Xbox confirmed the next entry in the series,Call of Duty: Black Ops 6would be coming to the service as a Day One title when it launches on October 25.
Therefore, with the newest title already confirmed, it seemed even more likely that Microsoft would bring the past games in the series to the subscription’s roster to build up more hype beforehand. Currently,only the most recent entry, 2023’sModern Warfare 3,has been rumored. Still, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the pastModern Warfaretitles soon accompanying it, or the addition of the pastBlack Opsgames to drum up even more hype as the newest entry draws near.
IfCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 3is set to drop onXbox Game Passon July 24,an official announcement should be imminent, as that’s less than 24 hours away as of the time of writing. Even so, if more of theCall of Dutygames begin to come to the subscription, that’s a huge win for fans of the series.
