Microsoft plans to launch this year’s Call of Duty via Xbox Game Pass for the first time, in a first for the franchise.
That’s according to The Wall St Journal, which today reported that Microsoft had now made the decision ahead of the game’s formal unveiling next month.
While Xbox has always brought new first-party games to Xbox Game Pass on day one, and Activision Blizzard is now a Microsoft first-party publisher following the completion of its $68.7bn takeover, there had still been a question mark over whether Call of Duty would be included.
