Just as Microsoft confirms that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will indeed be launching day one on Xbox Game Pass, developer Treyarch has dropped the game's 'Live Action Reveal Trailer' ahead of its big June Direct showcase.
As the name suggests, there's no gameplay in today's trailer; it serves more as a tone piece for what the team is going for with Black Ops 6. That tone is quite dark and edgy compared to what we've seen in more recent Black Ops titles - in many ways it harkens back to the spirit of the original Call of Duty: Black Ops on Xbox 360.
You'll see some familiar political faces discreetly showcased during the short clip up above, and we're sure that'll lead to some interesting headlines once the game is out in the wild and fans have blasted through the Black Ops 6 campaign.
The team hasn't revealed a launch date yet for this next Call of Duty title, but you can bet your bottom dollar that it'll be out later this year - and it's definitely coming to Xbox Game Pass on day one. We'd expect to find out the exact release date, and what gameplay actually looks like, during Xbox's big summer showcase in early June.
Excited for this one, COD fans? Tell us what you think about Black Ops 6 so far down below.

All I need is confirmation of if the game has 4 player, split screen, Zombies.
That makes or breaks it for me. Still playing BLOP4 for that very reason.
Looking forward to it... 👍
Can never get too excited about a non-gameplay trailer but gotta say putting Saddam Hussein in is a bold move that will get tongues wagging.
I enjoyed the political figures being the playable characters in zombies back when black ops 1 came out.
Can we get Bush, Clinton, Hussein in zombie mode instead of the jfk,nixon,castro?
It does what it needs to, set the mood for the next Xbox show. Marketing finally started after a very long acquisition process. Since the majority of Call of Duty players are on mobile and PC, the game will be successful inside and outside Game Pass.
The intriguing part will be the PS/Xbox ratio (if officially revealed). Exactly the same as the previous games or will some PS players switch platform? I don't mean the PS crowd visiting us on a daily basis, but those that only buy a PS for Call of Duty and Fortnite and those playing on PS4. Besides, will this game be cloud-based on Switch because it's technically impossible on the old tablet or will it be ported to Switch 2?
Is that Margaret Thatcher at 22 seconds?? She'd make a great Zombie I'd like to shoot at 🤣
And with day 1 GP I will be switching back to Xbox for my COD sessions. The series X will get some love this year.
@Nexozi I'm sure a few will and with MS making 100% of money from sales of Season Passes on Xbox compared to just 70% on PS5 (30% going to Sony), it could be more lucrative for them.
Yes you'll get the 'base' game free, but the Premium Edition with the first Season Pass and/or 'early access' will be a Paid upgrade. If you only play the Campaign, you can get to do that now Day 1 instead of waiting for a Sale or buying used...
It will be nice for change that the WHOLE CoD community will get the SAME content etc on the SAME day - even if you can get the Base game on Game Pass now. Wonder if it will come to Nintendo Switch this year (or maybe wait for Switch 2)...
Bring it on Mrs Thatcher 😊
@BAMozzy With the base game being free it likely more people will pay out the £30 option like for Forza and starfield. Still a £70 saving on the £100 vault edition if u already have GP and plan to keep using it.
@Nexozi Right. That's exactly what a lot of people do, they buy the add-on bundle and don't buy the game because it's on Game Pass and first-party games don't leave Game Pass. They also get the DLC cheaper at launch. Moreover, they need a subscription for playing online.
Pure Xbox team, have you seen that it looks like Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance is coming out to GamePass? Logo was in a trailer with Slipknot that came out today.

@awp69 Wow, that would be great. Another big hitter on Game Pass.
I'm still reeeeally hoping it releases a month early on Xbox to get back at PlayStation for pulling that same kinda garbage on past CODs.
@InterceptorAlpha same and I was hoping that with xbox acquiring Activision that my Black Ops4 would have seen an xbox one x enhanced patch to get that crappy resolution up.
