It comes a year after Microsoft\u2019s $69 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard, which has also seen the likes of Diablo 4 and Modern Warfare 3 arrive on Game Pass, and will, in November, see StarCraft: Remastered and StarCraft 2: Campaign Collection hit the subscription service.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Black Ops 6\u2019s launch straight into Game Pass is a big gamble for Microsoft. It hopes the power of Call of Duty will boost subscriber numbers and revenue (itself bolstered by <a class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/xbox-game-pass-price-hikes-were-inevitable-analysts-say\">the recent Game Pass price rise and restructure<\/a>), but it comes with the risk of losing sales of the full-price game. While Xbox executives have insisted sales can be boosted by a game\u2019s presence on Game Pass, some publishers remain unconvinced. Former Activision boss Bobby Kotick, for example, was always against putting Call of Duty into subscription services. Unlike Microsoft, console rival Sony does not release its new exclusives straight into its subscription service.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">In <a class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/phil-spencer-on-potentially-bringing-call-of-duty-and-other-activision-blizzard-games-to-game-pass\"><u>an interview with IGN<\/u><\/a> last year, Xbox boss Phil Spencer was asked how he\u2019d handle his and Kotick\u2019s different ideologies after the deal to buy Activision Blizzard closed. &#8220;Well, there&#8217;s a different person making the decisions,&#8221; Spencer laughed.<\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\" data-cy=\"article-slideshow\"><button type=\"button\" style=\"display:none\" class=\"jsx-2228525885\"\/><\/p>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-view-trigger\">\n<div class=\"jsx-2569068517 slideshow-preview\">\n<h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-1085005187\">Every Video Game Franchise Xbox Owns After Acquiring Activision Blizzard<\/h3>\n<div class=\"jsx-2569068517 images-container\"><button type=\"button\" aria-label=\"Open Slideshow\" class=\"jsx-2569068517 hero-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2023\/10\/17\/1fklcjqrckskd17xhwqkfjxz2uslup-mquwb6p3kdjc-1697581881058.jfif?width=888&amp;crop=16%3A9&amp;quality=20&amp;dpr=0.05\" class=\"jsx-2920405963 progressive-image jsx-3069850610 image aspect-ratio aspect-ratio-16-9 jsx-2605834259 jsx-2338608387 hover-opacity loading\"\/><span class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button button--primary jsx-3381835873 jsx-4266531355 row-pagination-button next contained centered round large\" data-cy=\"paginate next\" title=\"Open Slideshow\"\/><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/output><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">In the shorter term, tomorrow, October 16, South Park: The Fractured but Whole (Cloud, Console, and PC) hits Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass, and Game Pass Standard.
