Call of Duty and Xbox Game Pass issues are a never-ending discussion in the gaming world. Being one of the most popular gaming platforms, Xbox gets almost all the renowned titles and a few of them go to the Game Pass. But, to date, the Call of Duty franchise never launched on Xbox Game Pass, even after repeated demands from the players. However, after Microsoft acquired Activision Blizzard, fans once again hoped that this time, COD would definitely come on Game Pass, but again their thoughts got a hit as a renowned leaker revealed something disappointing.

Timdog’s Surprising Revelation About COD and Xbox Game Pass

Microsoft’s renowned leaker Timdog, recently appeared on the Gamers Council podcast and stated something essential about Xbox and Xbox Game Pass. He claimed that Call of Duty may not come to Game Pass, and he pointed out multiple reasons behind it. Timdog sarcastically called it a ‘brilliant idea.’

Activision previously announced that their titles will start arriving on Game Pass in 2024. This raises players’ hopes of getting COD series on Game Pass, but the latest leak again closed the avenue.

The primary reason the leaker pointed out is the unsustainability of the Game Pass. Though the authorities claimed something different, especially, their CEO called it a profitable sector, the reality is something different. The latest reports show that six years after its initial launch the Xbox Game Pass hits 33.3 Million subscribers. So, Tim mentioned, with the current Game Pass condition, “the market they have is not enough to offset the cost.”

Further, Timdog expressed lots of concern about the current situation of Xbox and its future in the gaming industry as PlayStation and Nintendo are leaving it long behind in the competitive journey. The leaker said, that in the last three months of 2023, Xbox had “consoles for $350 and no one cared.” According to him, the hardware is going down every year and there’s no improvement.

Among the Xbox Game Pass and Call of Duty incompatibility issues, another rumor is spreading in the world of video games that some exclusive games are going to be multi-platformed. This list includes series like Halo and Starfield. Halo is a popular first-person shooter series that used to be available on PC and other Xbox Consoles but in 2024, the rumors highlight that Halo games will release on PlayStation for the first time.

That’s the exact case with Starfield. Starfield was released in 2023, and soon it became one of the biggest games by Bethesda, as it surpassed more than 6 million installs within a week. However, initially, the game was released on Xbox and PC, but a new rumor has spread that this game will come to PlayStation this year after the “Shattered Space” expansion releases on Xbox and PC.

Well, none of these news is verified as no official announcement has been made yet. These are all rumors and assumptions that players have been making based on some hints.
