Microsoft confirms ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’ coming to Xbox Game Pass on day one
Set in the early 90s during the Gulf War, ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’ is expected to launch a few months from now.
Microsoft has confirmed that ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’, one of the most anticipated video games of the year will be available on the Xbox Game Pass on day one. On June 9 at the ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct’, the gaming giant will give us a “first in-depth look” at the gameplay.
According to The Verge, Microsoft was debating last month if they should bring the upcoming installment in the ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops’ title to the Xbox Game Pass. With Activision Blizzard selling around 20 million copies at an approximate price of $70, Microsoft was concerned about how the gaming studio’s revenue would be affected if they brought ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’ to the Xbox Game Pass at launch.

In a reveal trailer, Microsoft confirmed that ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’ will partially take place during the Gulf War in the early 90s and feature popular politicians like former US presidents Bill Clinton and George HW Bush, the former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein, and former UK prime minister Margaret Thatcher.
With Microsoft yet to announce the launch date for the upcoming game, it is still unclear if the company plans to bump up the price of its game subscription service. At the upcoming Xbox summer showcase, which will take place just before ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct’, the company will give us a glimpse on the upcoming Gears of War game, a new Doom title and release dates for titles like ‘Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024’, ‘Avowed’, ‘Indiana Jones’ and ‘The Great Circle’ to name a few.
