Xbox Game Pass eyes bringing classic Call of Duty titles to 2026 lineup after price cut

TL;DR Summary
Microsoft slashed Xbox Game Pass price to $22.99/month and said new Call of Duty games will not launch on Game Pass at release, instead arriving about a year after release. The move aims to cut costs and stop COD sales cannibalization, while Microsoft and Activision reportedly plan to add more older Call of Duty titles to Game Pass in 2026. Fans have been weighing which classics they’d like to see (e.g., Modern Warfare, World at War, Modern Warfare 2, Black Ops, Black Ops 2, Ghosts), even as the Modern Warfare reboot is already on the service.
