Call of Duty will be heading to Game Pass day-one this year

While Sarah Bond appeared to confirm this already in an interview earlier in the month, a new report has come out stating that Microsoft has finalised plans to bring Call of Duty to Game Pass this year. 

A previous report had claimed that there had been debate within Microsoft about whether to bring Call of Duty to Game Pass on day one due to potential loss of sales revenue. However, in an interview with Bloomberg recently, Xbox exec, Sarah Bond, reaffirmed the company's commitment to Game Pass, and bringing first party games, like COD, to the service.

Now, The Wall Street Journal reports that Microsoft has made the decision to make Call of Duty a day-one Game Pass title this year. The new game is expected to be announced in June at the Xbox Games Showcase and it is believed that the secret ‘gameplay deep dive' stream scheduled immediately after the showcase will focus on the new Call of Duty.

This year we expect to see Treyarch return to the forefront with a new Black Ops game. As usual, Call of Duty should release between late October and early November, with beta tests taking place a month or so before.

KitGuru Says: With Call of Duty coming to Game Pass, I'll at least be checking out this year's game. I skipped Modern Warfare 3 due to the poor reception to the game's campaign, and the usual purchase price is simply too high for the multiplayer alone.
