Spencer ambitiously expressed the intent to bring every game from ZeniMax, Activision Blizzard, and Xbox Game Studios on Xbox Game Pass from the very day they go on sale, which would be a revolutionary move. Game Pass subscribers could access big AAA titles from day one without paying a single extra penny.

Unfortunately, we’re still quite a way away from this being reality. Currently, not every Call of Duty title is available on Game Pass, leaving fans hanging about when they can expect the franchise to join the subscription service. Spencer even acknowledged the fans’ anticipation, exclaiming that even though there’s no definitive timeline yet, Call of Duty is undoubtedly on its way to Game Pass.

This integration takes a lot of backend work, especially in the case of Activision Blizzard games. Spencer revealed that the team is working hard to focus on streamlining the process and ensure both PC and console can enjoy these games from day one, without any delay.

What Spencer said might be hard to swallow, but it does not come without any proof. During the Xbox Official Podcast that aired recently, it was announced that Blizzard’s Diablo IV, which launched before the company’s acquisition, would join Game Pass on March 28. This is the first of many that will steadily be added to the subscription service/

Looking ahead, Spencer’s promises of bringing major titles to Xbox Game Pass on day one could be the next evolution of the current gaming landscape. Blockbuster gaming hits could be accessible to players on PC and Xbox on day one without paying extra money or waiting months for an Xbox Game Pass announcement.

Xbox is keen on pushing Game Pass to be the go-to gaming subscription. Even Call of Duty fans have something to look forward to, but we’ll have to wait until there’s any further news on the popular franchise coming to Xbox Game Pass.
