Okay, so, at this point we're all pretty much expecting a massive Activision Blizzard Xbox Game Pass drop to happen in and around the Xbox Games Showcase this weekend, and another few hints at such an event have cropped up online today.
First off, as part of Microsoft's new 'Next Week On Xbox' roundup, the team has revealed that Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 will be added to the Microsoft Store on PC for June 11th. This sort of thing typically means that a PC Game Pass drop is imminent - the game has been available on other PC platforms for some time now.
Another Xbox Game Pass hint comes once again from The Verge's Tom Warren. Taking to Twitter to promote his huge report on all-things showcase-related, Warren said "if you already have an Xbox Game Pass backlog, get ready to add even more to it", further hinting that we're about to get a big library update as part of the show.
All of this builds on what feels like months of anticipation for Microsoft adding ActiBlizz games to Xbox Game Pass. Back in April, a Microsoft Store listing for Spyro Reignited Trilogy also pointed at another Activision game coming to the library, while last month the very same thing happened with Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy. All roads lead to Xbox Game Pass, we hope!
Anyway, we should have answers to all of this very soon - the Xbox Games Showcase featuring Call of Duty Direct goes ahead this weekend.
Is it finally happening, folks? Tell us which ActiBlizz game you'll be playing first on Xbox Game Pass!

Let's hope so! I've been holding off on a lot of actibliz purchases for this reason
@Boogaloo_Jenkins Yeah same here so gonna see what happens 👍🏻
Hopefully CTR drops aswell I already bought tony hawks and crash trilogy a while back but at least spyro should definitely be there dying to play that loved it as a kid
Trying to think of ActiBlizz games that I would want, that I don't already own or have played, I'm pretty much coming up empty
Already own Spyro and Tony Hawk. Crash might be nice. But honestly I have so many games I'm working on now, definitely would be a back burner.
Thankfully though since they own it, you'd expect it to be left on the service permanently so that would always give time to play it lol
I am in the opposite category… played none of the AB games and this is all backlog … wonderful but omg…
I'd rather have Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3+4 announced.
This is definitely the game I am most looking forward to coming onto Gamepass. I played a lot of Tony Hawk back in the day but never bought the remake.
I still think it's more likely that the AB games get added slowly over a couple months than with a big one time drop.
@Tasuki Yeah very true for the campaign/Single player it was far better they would be stupid not to make it lots of sales on all platforms
@Ricky-Spanish Whats messed up was Vicarious Visions was working on it till Bobby Kotick merged V V into Blizzard and then they were told to abandon it to work on Blizzard stuff.
Hopefully now that Activision-Blizzard is owned by MS it will be finished and released.
@InvaderFromSpace THPS 1+2 is amazing, you're going to love it.
