Xbox/PC Game Pass is a subscription service from Microsoft that can be used for a monthly fee of 842 yen to 1,210 yen (tax included), and allows you to play games provided by Microsoft-owned Bethesda Softworks on your Xbox, PC, or mobile device.

It has been revealed that Game Pass will include Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, the latest title from Activision Blizzard, which Microsoft previously acquired. Some gamers are excited that it will be available from the first day of release.

However, this title will not be an exclusive distribution, and is expected to be released on other platforms such as PlayStation. Microsoft signed a contract in 2022 to supply the CoD series to Nintendo for 10 years, and has also agreed with SIE to continue supplying the CoD series to PlayStation in July 2023.

Although Microsoft has decided to distribute the game as a subscription service, there are concerns within the company that not making it a one-time purchase will hurt profits.

In conjunction with this announcement, the Xbox team has released a trailer for 'Call of Duty: Black Ops 6'. In addition, they announced that they will reveal details about the title on June 9, 2024 local time. At the time of writing, the release date and price of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, as well as its availability on platforms other than Xbox and PC, have yet to be determined.
