Xbox has announced that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Modern Warfare III, and Warzone will be available on Xbox Cloud Gaming at launch for Game Pass Ultimate subscribers. This exciting news follows a significant shift in the gaming landscape due to the recent CMA deal, which initially awarded all streaming rights for Activision-Blizzard games to Ubisoft.
The announcement came via social media, with Xbox expressing enthusiasm about enhancing gaming experiences across devices. In a press release, they stated, “We’re thrilled to reveal that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will be playable with Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta) for Game Pass Ultimate members at launch, beginning October 25, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. PT.” Players can pre-purchase the game now, with the standard edition priced at $69.99 and the Vault Edition at $99.99 on Steam.
A notable highlight of Black Ops 6 is the introduction of omni-movement, a gameplay feature that significantly transforms how players navigate the game environment. This enhanced movement system allows for greater agility and fluidity, enabling players to execute complex maneuvers and engage in more dynamic combat scenarios.
This release will mark a new chapter for Xbox Cloud Gaming, which has seen renewed momentum since the closure of the ABK deal. Additionally, starting in November, the cloud streaming service will be available on the native Android app in the United States. Xbox users will also be able to play a selection of their owned titles via the Cloud Gaming service, as reported by Tom Warren.
This surge in offerings comes after a period of slower updates to the service, signaling a robust future for Xbox Cloud Gaming.
