It's 2024 and there's still no news about these games. Has the deal still not been finalized? Why are we still waiting?
Existing contracts most likely.It's 2024 and there's still no news about these games. Has the deal still not been finalized? Why are we still waiting?
That could stand for D4 or new CoD but what about the older games?Wouldn’t surprise me if there’s contracts/agreements for many of the games to not be added to Game Pass before a certain date
It's 2024
Contracts, Battle Net integration, moving to Xbox Live etc. etc.It's 2024 and there's still no news about these games. Has the deal still not been finalized? Why are we still waiting?
Microsoft bought Bethesda in March 2021.
Titles that added after 1 week;
Wolfenstein: The Old Blood
The Evil Within
Morrowind
Doom 1, 2, 3, 64
Dishonered
Titles that added after 3 months;
The Evil Within 2
Fallout 1,2, Tactics
Dishonered: Death of the Outsider
After 5 months;
Quake 1-2-3
After 17 months!!!(why??)
Quake 4
Return to Castle Wolfenstein
Wolfenstein 3D
If they can add such big games in the first week, they could have at least added some old Activision games as well. Hopefully, we won't have to wait 17 months for some games. Can't wait to shoot some people as Homelander!!!
Isn't the point of Game Pass instant access to first-party games? Why would they hold them back?Why put every catalog item on your subscription service and then have nothing left to add?

Yeah, games are different. Games like Wow, Cod and Diablo can keep many people on service for years. You're right about other games; that's Game Pass's biggest challenge. However, it's Phil's job to retain more people without upsetting them by holding back their catalog.Back catalog is a bit different especially compared to tv/movies.
If you can play all the games available and of interest on gamepass within 3-6 months, how do you retain those people? New content alone becomes very challenging.
Right. It's one of 2 reasons, IMO.For reference, they put over 20 Bethesda Games on GamePass a few days after the purchase.
But I'm sure that doesn't mean anything, purely a coincidence.
They will add blackthorne for you. Also Lost Vikings if you behave nicely : DD. Plus Wow Burning Crusade, only. Maybe some other chipichapa, chupi,chapa like games.It's 2024 and there's still no news about these games. Has the deal still not been finalized? Why are we still waiting?
Later this year? Oh man, I think they are still enjoying the sweet money coming from those games. I believe they are not satisfied with the financial return from their own service.
It looks like Phil has been lying more and promising too much internally than externallyIt's pretty clear that the CFO and others above Phil are done subsidizing Xbox and taking losses.
They've been doing everything they can to generate more money, slashing the rewards program, charging extra money for real release dates "early access", raising GP price, etc.
its not coming, i bet you Satya saw that GP is not financially viable for a game and franchise like COD.I hope there will be a statement about this issue next week. I'm starting to feel like they're trying to cover this up . It seems they're not trusting Gamepass anymore and enjoying money coming from everywhere else.
Well I just hope tony hawks is in the first batch. Maybe they add some ABK games as part of some big marketing push for gamepass later in the year. They could easily start with tony hawks and BC cod titles. … adding crash bandicoot and whatever else through out the year….Why put every catalog item on your subscription service and then have nothing left to add?
Reminds me of some shit people say when they owe money but make excuses for not paying.We hear you.
I'll let you know next week.
huh, what lolI think they will start getting added by or shortly after next week's announcement.
They are supposed to have a business update next week. I'm guessing that they start adding these games to soften the impact of any business updates. What is so funny about that guess?huh, what lol
did you not read the news? they're likely pulling day 1 games from GP more than they are adding big games like COD. Why would they soften the blow by making less money?They are supposed to have a business update next week.

that might cover the most recent games, what about the rest? It's not contractsContracts?
Pretty sure Sony had some to stop Call Of Duty from being on Game Pass and the topic of games on Game Pass must have come to court, i recall Microsoft gave a bit away when it comes to Cloud Gaming, so i am not sure, but maybe another condition was delaying Activision games on Game Pass too.
Contracts?

Official or rumor?did you not read the news? they're likely pulling day 1 games from GP more than they are adding big games like COD. Why would they soften the blow by making less money?
Jim Ryan thinks the same way.Couse of money. Why add em to Gamepass when they can sell em anyways for 70$ a game
at least get Diablo 4 and starcraft 2 on gamepass meng
