In recent days, many have questioned the profitability of the games coming to Xbox Game Pass, and have questioned the launch of the next Call of Duty in this service day one. Reports have indicated that Xbox is debating this issue, causing internal conflict. However, new information ensures that a decision has already been made, and It seems that Game Pass users will be able to enjoy the next Call of Duty day one.
According to a report by The Wall Street Journal, The next Call of Duty will arrive on Xbox Game Pass on day one, making a controversial decision that could substantially affect the performance of this delivery. This is what was said about it:
“Microsoft plans a major restructuring of its video game sales strategy, launching the next installment of Call of Duty on its subscription service, instead of the lucrative and traditional approach of selling it only a la carte.”
While this benefits Xbox Game Pass users, and the number of subscribers is likely to increase, one of the company’s main goals, There is no denying the fact that this decision will significantly affect business performance.. Let us remember that there are currently more than 33 million users of this service. This means that a maximum of 33 million copies will not be sold traditionally.
Although at the moment there is no detailed information about the next Call of Duty, it is expected that this title, which rumors indicate will be a new installment in the Black Ops series, have its official reveal during the Xbox Games Showcase taking place in June. Following this, we can enjoy a presentation focused entirely on this game.
Likewise, let us remember that one of the concessions that Microsoft promised during the trial for the acquisition of Activision Blizzard was to bring Call of Duty to PlayStation consoles for the next 10 years. Along with this, Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft, has assured that he will bring more experience to the Sony console. Thus, It is more than certain that the next Call of Duty will be available on PlayStation 5 in the future. In related topics, Phil Spencer talks about Call of Duty on Xbox Game Pass. Likewise, Sarah Bond reveals what will happen with this series in her subscription service.
Author’s Note:
The next Call of Duty is likely to become the lowest-selling game in the series in recent years. Xbox is between a rock and a hard place in this case. On the one hand, they can’t go back on their message of bringing all their day one first party games to Game Pass, and on the other they are aware that they will lose money by doing this.
