Microsoft has announced excitingly that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will be available on Xbox Game Pass from its release day. 

This represents a notable change in the gaming industry, as the widely acclaimed first-person shooter series has historically served as a significant source of income for Activision, consistently selling more than 20 million copies per release at a price point of approximately $70 each.

Following an accidental leak earlier this week, Microsoft announced the inclusion of Black Ops 6 as a day-one release on the Xbox Game Pass app. This information was revealed through a push notification on the subscription service.
