When will Activision Blizzard games hit Xbox Game Pass? It seems like only a matter of time, however, we will need to be patient. Regardless of promising declarations, everything still depends on whether Microsoft finally completes the acquisition of the company. More and more signals suggest that we are currently in the home stretch.
What do we know about Activision Blizzard games in Xbox Game Pass? The company publishes a brief statement on social network X (formerly Twitter). On one hand, Activision Blizzard does not plan to "introduce Modern Warfare III or Diablo IV to Game Pass this year" - it is expected that the company will begin to add games next year. Which ones exactly? We do not know.
Everything depends on how smoothly the process of Microsoft taking over Activision Blizzard will run. Although the CMA has time to approve until October 18, it is not ruled out that we will know the final decision on Friday, October 13 - this is suggested by The Verge portal.
