Eight Call of Duty Games Are Still Missing from Game Pass
Eight older Call of Duty games are still missing from Game Pass, Microsoft’s subscription service for games.
The gap stands out because Microsoft bought Activision, the company behind the franchise, and players expected its older titles to reach the service.
The missing games include Black Ops, World at War, Advanced Warfare and Ghosts.
These games introduced or popularized features such as the Nuketown multiplayer map and the series’ zombies mode.
Their absence leaves players needing to buy them if they want to play those classic entries.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is due to launch on Oct.
23, but no date is given for adding the missing games to Game Pass.
