Microsoft is lowering Game Pass subscription prices by over 20% but removing day-one access to new Call of Duty titles, which will now only arrive on the service the following holiday season. The move comes after recent price hikes and reflects Microsoft's effort to balance affordability with content offerings. Existing Call of Duty games remain available on Game Pass.
Background
Game Pass is Microsoft's subscription gaming service offering access to hundreds of games across Xbox and PC platforms. The service has undergone multiple price increases and content expansions since its 2017 launch.
