November 14 is going to be a huge day for Xbox Game Pass members with the arrival of one of the year’s biggest games yet as a day-one release. Microsoft’s subscription service is seeing its catalog continuously expand with the arrival of new titles every month, even if there are some removals. For example, Winter Burrow’s addition to Xbox Game Pass allows players to experience a cozy new game as a day-one release.
However, it’s worth noting that day-one releases are now limited to the Ultimate tier, following the change to the service’s structure. As such, only the highest tier members will gain access to brand-new day-one release games like Egging On on Xbox Game Pass. Of course, the Premium and Essential tiers do get new games to play, though they are often limited to titles that have been previously released and then become available in the catalog.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Hits Xbox Game Pass This November
The New Game Will Be Available On November 14
On November 14, members will be able to play Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 as part of the additions to Xbox Game Pass in November. Following Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision a few years ago, the Call of Duty series is considered a first-party franchise. Because of this, Black Ops 7 can be played as a day-one release on Game Pass, though access to it is limited to the Ultimate and PC Game Pass tiers.
Via the subscription service, you’ll be able to play Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 on Xbox Series X/S consoles, PC, and cloud. Because this is a first-party title, the odds of it being removed anytime soon are very low, but considering how often new games in the series are released, it’ll be best to play Black Ops 7 on its release.
Black Ops 7 Is A Huge Addition To Game Pass
This Call Of Duty Will Be Popular
Considered the biggest Black Ops ever made, the new installment will have a campaign that can be enjoyed solo or in co-op, as well as the ever-present multiplayer mode. At launch, the mode will have 16 maps for the 6v6 mode, as well as two maps destined for a 20v20 confrontation. In addition to that, Black Ops 7 also has a new chapter in the Zombies series.
This is arguably one of the biggest releases on Xbox Game Pass this year. Each Call of Duty game tends to be one of the most popular releases every year, and the addition of Black Ops 7 as a day-one release on the catalog could help establish it as 2025’s biggest shooter game, beating Battlefield 6.
If you’re an Ultimate tier member, Black Ops 7 is one of those AAA games that helps give extra value to your subscription fee. If you’re a fan of the Call of Duty series, you should consider at least checking it out for free on Xbox Game Pass.
