Instead of offering access to the Call of Duty beta only to players who pre-order the game, Microsoft will invite Game Pass users as well
Microsoft’s influence on the saga Call of Duty begins to become evident. The next installment of Activision’s war shooter is going to bring very important changes that go far beyond the gameplay. We are talking about a great transformation in the business model. It is no secret that in addition to direct sales, Xbox’s goal is to generate income through an increase in subscriptions. Game Pass. In this sense, we knew that Black Ops 6 would be in the service when it premiered on October 25, 2024. What we were not so clear about was that Its first appearance in the catalog would take place a few months before.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 beta will be on Game Pass
Through a statement on the official Call of Duty website, it has been confirmed that, when the time comes, all Game Pass subscribers will have access to the Black Ops beta 6. This is pleasant news and will mean a big change for users of Xbox. Not only will they receive the beta at the same time as those on PlayStation (until now the Sony console had a week of temporary exclusivity) but they will be able to enjoy it without having to reserve the game. If we use the current Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 as an example, Xbox users who did not pre-purchase the game could only enjoy the beta two of the eight days it was active.
Guaranteeing access to the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 beta to the service is a very interesting added value. It is true that this is still just the testing phase of a video game, but fans of the saga usually find it very pleasant to be able to enjoy the new video game before its official release. This way, the wait for the new installment becomes a little more enjoyable and you can feel like you are participating in the balance changes that come in the “Day 1” patch. In this sense and taking into account that the launch of the beta and that of the video game are always very close, this can also cause some users to join the service early.
Regarding the beta of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, it has yet to be announced When exactly will it take place or what will its duration be?. This news will hopefully be kept under wraps until August 28. That day will be when the Call of Duty: NEXT event takes place. This will reveal much deeper details of the multiplayer, the zombies mode or the changes it will receive. Warzone.
