Microsoft finally did what many people thought they would do: increase the price of Xbox Game Pass. The company confirmed this increase, and fans were not happy, especially since this increase came just before the launch of the newCall of Duty, which will be available day one in the service.
However, it seems that this increase was not solely because of the title launching in October. According to rumors, Microsoft plans to add another major game from the franchise to the service soon. According to several reliable sources,Modern Warfare 3will also be part of the service’s extensive catalog.
The Price Increase for Xbox Game Pass Seems Justified With the Addition of Another Call of Duty to the Service
Despite being one of the most revolutionary services in gaming, its numerous price increases have led many players to abandon it.Xbox Game Pass has periodically increased its price, which fans do not like.
Games likeCall of Dutyraise the price again, making it almost impossible to pay that much per month. Fortunately, the company is soon trying to justify this with new title additions.

Players are beginning to see the reason behind the price increase.
Xbox Game Pass adds Activision titles.
WhenBlack Ops 6launches, it will be the secondCall of Dutygame added to this service in less than four months. According to Henderson, this will not be the only Activision game joining the service.

Henderson and a slightly older news report indicate that the service will add games such asCrash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogyat the end of this month, coinciding with the announcement of price increases.
Xbox Game Pass is starting to justify its price increase with many new games added to the service. For now, it is unknown if Blizzard titles will also find their place on this game-filled platform.
Another rumored game, besidesCall of Duty Modern Warfare 3, is the remake ofTony Hawk Pro Skater, which could also arrive at the end of this month.

Various sources are solidifying these rumors, suggesting that Game Pass will receive a portion of the Activision catalog. Confirmations of this type instill in fans a sense of justification for the price hike, given the multitude of new games.
On October 25,Black Ops 6will launch for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, PC, andXbox Game Pass. This strategy is risky for Microsoft because this franchise sold well without joining any of these services.
However, this could potentially benefit Game Pass, as it could lead to a significant increase in its user base. This is Microsoft’s primary objective, as its current user base has reached a saturation point.
