Beginning this year, future Call of Duty titles won’t join Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass at launch. New Call of Duty games will be added to Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass during the following holiday season (about a year later), while existing Call of Duty titles already in the library will continue to be available. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers will continue to have access to hundreds of games on Xbox console and PC including current Call of Duty titles, in-game benefits, online console multiplayer, and major day one releases.

We’ll continue to listen and learn,” Microsoft said in a statement.

“Thank you for being a part of the Xbox community.” The move is consistent with remarks leaked in a memo by the new Xbox CEO, Asha Sharma, about how prices for the subscriptions were too high. This solution takes Call of Duty out of the subscription for a time, allowing hardcore players to purchase it and boost overall Xbox revenues, while giving relief to the non-Call of Duty players.
