Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 confirmed for Xbox Game Pass

Published , by Donovan Erskine

Last week, Activision confirmed speculation that the latest Call of Duty game would be Black Ops 6. Developed by Treyarch, it’ll be the first game in the franchise released under new parent company Microsoft. With that, it’s now been announced that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will launch on Xbox Game Pass.

Microsoft confirmed Black Ops 6 as a day and date launch for Xbox Game Pass in an Xbox Wire post this morning. The announcement came alongside the official key art for the game, which is a visual callback to the cover art for the first Black Ops, released in 2010.
