In exciting news for gamers, Microsoft is reportedly planning to add Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 to Xbox Game Pass later this month. This follows the announcement in May that the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will be available on Game Pass from its launch in October.

Modern Warfare 3 on Game Pass

According to a report by Insider Gaming, last year's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is expected to join Xbox Game Pass soon, though the exact date hasn't been confirmed. Several sources suggest it will be in the latter half of this month. Windows Central also supported this information, but there has been no official confirmation from Microsoft or Activision yet.

Currently, no Call of Duty games are available on Game Pass. Last year, Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer mentioned that Call of Duty and other Activision Blizzard games wouldn't appear on Game Pass until 2024 due to delays in Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard. The company needed to finalize the buyout before adding these titles to the Game Pass catalog.

Black Ops 6 to Launch on Game Pass

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, the next installment in the popular first-person shooter series, will be the first game in the franchise to launch on Game Pass on day one. The game is set to be released on October 25. With the addition of Modern Warfare 3 and the upcoming launch of Black Ops 6, Xbox Game Pass subscribers have a lot to look forward to.

Price Changes and New Subscription Tier

Earlier this week, Microsoft increased the prices of Xbox Game Pass across various regions and tiers, ahead of the Black Ops 6 launch. They also introduced a new ‘Standard’ tier for the subscription service, which will not include new first-party titles on launch day.

Review: Modern Warfare 3

Modern Warfare 3, released on November 10 last year, received mixed reviews:

Pros:

- Tight, responsive gunplay

- Excellent visuals

- Flawless performance

Cons:

- Warzone-style Open Combat missions

- Lack of bombastic set pieces

- Bland missions and story

- Unsatisfying ending

- Cluttered, confusing menu design

Overall, the addition of Modern Warfare 3 to Game Pass, along with the upcoming launch of Black Ops 6, will enhance the appeal of Microsoft's game subscription service for Call of Duty fans.
