Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is confirmed to hit Xbox Game Pass on day one. Ever since Microsoft acquired Activision, the excitement about the eventual of all Call of Duty games becoming a part of the Xbox Game Pass has been at an all-time high.
The ability to play the entire catalog of over 20 games from the iconic franchise is unlike anything else seen today on any platform. However, fans are concerned that the original Call of Duty isn’t compatible with the latest platforms and might not be on Xbox Game Pass.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Is Coming To Game Pass but What About Other Games
Last October, Microsoft finally completed the infamous $68.7 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard. This made them owners by proxy of a vast gaming library, and not least among them Activision’s series.
The latest installment in the franchise, Black Ops 6 is confirmed to be available on the subscription service on day one. However, earlier, Microsoft also announced that previous games will come to Game Pass.
Unfortunately, with no updates on this announcement, several fan theories and worries have been launched about the truth behind it and what is taking them so long to fulfill their promise. It seems that not all games are compatible with new platforms and Microsoft needs time to make certain adjustments.
Original Call of Duty is a Fan Favorite But Will Be Left Out of Xbox Game Pass
When released in 2003, the original game took the world by storm with a new and improved engine, combat, and AI-controlled allies. These were just some of the features that made it stand out against the competition of the time, such as the Medal of Honor series.
Ever since, the franchise has spawned over 20 titles and two sub-series, Modern Warfare, and Black Ops.
With rumors of old games coming to Game Pass, fans are wondering what is going to happen with the original game as it is deemed not compatible with modern platforms.
One Reddit user pointed out just that by saying that the deal will be a great one considering the prices of old games, but he fears that the original game won’t be included.
Nevertheless, another user said that there is a solution for it, hoping that if they want they can make it backward compatible as nothing is stopping them now since Microsoft owns the entire franchise.
Fan speculations about the inclusion of the entire franchise on the popular service are running wild with fans saying they will probably wait to see if Black Ops 6 meets their expectations to add all other games since no news has been made recently.
Nevertheless, until more news comes out, what are your thoughts? Will Microsoft listen to fans and Call of Duty makes Xbox Game Pass or not? Let us know in the comments.
