Modern Warfare 3 on Game o6k46
Released in November last year, Modern Warfare 3 will become the first Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, arrives on Game day one when it launches October 25.
The announcement comes days after Microsoft said it was raising the pricing for Xbox Game and introducing a new ‘Standard' tier of the subscription service that will not include new games on the day of launch. The price hike precedes popular Call of Duty games hitting the service for the first time. Crucially, the Black Ops 6 will become the first COD title to be available on Game day one.
Activision-Blizzard titles on Game 2b4860
Microsoft has slowly begun adding games from the Diablo IV in March.
Last year, Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer said that Call of Duty and other Activision Blizzard games won't be available on Xbox Game until 2024 as regulatory hurdles had delayed the company's acquisition of Activision. The Xbox chief had said at the time that Microsoft could not complete the work required to add Activision-Blizzard titles to the Game catalogue until the buyout was finalised.
Earlier this week, a report claimed that Microsoft was planning on introducing more new Game tiers, including a Cloud-only version of the service, a family and friends plan and a free ad-ed tier.
