Yup, no need to shell out $70 for this installment of the FPS behemoth. It seems even Activision can’t resist the siren song of subscription services. This news follows months of speculation about Call of Duty’s future on Game Pass. Apparently, Microsoft was weighing the potential hit to those sweet, sweet Call of Duty sales.

The confirmation arrived via an Xbox Wire blog post, with a slick trailer to match (Xbox News). Black Ops 6 will land on both console and PC Game Pass, because Microsoft wants to make sure nobody feels left out.
