Overview
- Microsoft lowered monthly prices for Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass worldwide, with Spain now at €20.99 and Mexico at 339 MXN.
- New Call of Duty releases will no longer launch on Game Pass and will arrive about a year later during the next holiday season.
- Call of Duty games already in the Game Pass library will remain available to subscribers.
- CEO Asha Sharma framed the move as a course correction after prior hikes, and coverage cites an FTC-era estimate that day-one placement can cut a game’s first-year sales by about 15–20%.
- For players, the change means lower monthly bills, though those who want the next Call of Duty at launch will need to buy it outright.
