Call Of Duty May Not Come To Xbox Game Pass For Several Years

The next several Call of Duty entries may not appear on Xbox Game Pass on day one. Earlier this year, Microsoft announced its intent to purchase Activision for just shy of $70 billion, making it one of the biggest acquisitions in the history of gaming. Aside from all of the talent that it will inherit, the biggest thing that Xbox will gain control of is Call of Duty, one of the biggest franchises in all of entertainment. Although the deal isn’t expected to close until summer 2023, many are already trying to picture what Call of Duty will look like under Xbox. The platform has made a promise that all of its first-party titles will be on Xbox Game Pass on launch day, including blockbuster titles like Starfield. Many naturally assumed Call of Duty would be included in this, but that may not be possible.

Sony’s deal lasts for the next 3 games I believe.MWII, Warzone 2, and Treyarch’s game. So if Microsoft obligates Sony’s existing deal, which they have said they will, nothing should change until CoD 2025/2026 (depending on when that releases). https://t.co/DqMJ1aKJW7
