Microsoft recently confirmed that the highly anticipated Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will have a day one release on Xbox Game Pass. This revelation came after a technical error caused alerts to be sent out from the Xbox Game Pass app, linking to a dead page with the URL “play-call-of-duty-black-ops-6-day-one-game-pass”. This accidental leak was quickly picked up by Verge senior editor Tom Warren, who shared the news on Twitter.
Following the inadvertent notification, an official post was made on Xbox Wire to confirm the news. The post stated that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will indeed be available on Xbox Game Pass from day one. While this news may not come as a surprise, as Microsoft often releases first-party games on Game Pass on their launch day, it is still exciting for fans to know that the game will be included in this lineup, especially now that it falls under the Microsoft umbrella post-acquisition.
The previously redacted Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct showcase is set to premiere immediately after the 2024 Xbox Games Showcase on June 9th at 10am PT (June 10th at 3am AEST). Both of these events will be livestreamed on various platforms including Xbox Twitch, YouTube, and Facebook channels. Additionally, the livestreams will be available in American Sign Language (ASL) with English audio descriptions on the Xbox ASL Twitch channel.
The news of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 being released on Xbox Game Pass on day one has generated a great deal of excitement among fans of the franchise. With the added convenience and accessibility that Game Pass offers, players will be able to dive into the latest installment of the popular series without any additional cost. This move by Microsoft further solidifies the company’s commitment to providing value to its subscribers and showcasing the benefits of the Game Pass service.
The accidental early announcement of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’s release on Xbox Game Pass has certainly drummed up anticipation for the upcoming showcase and launch. The inclusion of the game in the Game Pass lineup is a testament to Microsoft’s dedication to offering a diverse and engaging gaming experience for players across the globe.
