What happened: Microsoft has reduced the price of its Xbox Game Pass subscription but announced that new Call of Duty games will no longer be available on the service at launch, arriving about a year later instead.
Why it matters:
- Subscribers will pay less but must wait longer to play new Call of Duty titles on Game Pass.
- Call of Duty fans may need to purchase games separately at release or wait for the delayed access.
MNN Take: Microsoft is adjusting its Game Pass offering by balancing lower subscription costs with delayed access to major new releases, affecting how and when players can access popular games.
