Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 reportedly coming to Xbox Game Pass this month

Since Xbox closed its acquisition of Activision Blizzard last year, fans have eagerly awaited news about the Call of Duty franchise on Xbox Game Pass. The long wait might soon be over, as rumors suggest Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III will join the service later this month. Insider Gaming's Tom Henderson hints that an official announcement from Microsoft could come as early as today. This week has already seen major Game Pass news, including significant changes to its pricing structure.

At this time, readers should consider this only a rumor and take it with a grain of salt

However, Henderson has a strong track record, and it's known that the Call of Duty series will eventually be added to Xbox Game Pass. So far, Xbox has only announced Game Pass titles through July 16th, but a second batch for the rest of the month should be revealed soon.

Since acquiring Activision Blizzard

Xbox has been unusually quiet about bringing the publisher's games to Game Pass. The rumors about Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III come alongside similar rumors about other Activision games. Earlier this month, leaker eXtas1s claimed that Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, Spyro Reignited Trilogy, and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 are all coming to Game Pass in the near future.

If these rumors are accurate, it’s possible Xbox is beginning to tap into Activision’s catalog to enhance the Game Pass library. These games would be significant additions and could help mitigate frustrations surrounding the service's new price increase. It would also provide Game Pass subscribers with something to enjoy while they wait for Call of Duty Black Ops 6, which will be a day one release on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate on October 25th.

Are you excited to see Activision Blizzard games added to Xbox Game Pass? Which of the publisher’s games are you hoping to see? Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 reportedly coming to Xbox Game Pass this month could be the start of more exciting additions.
