Microsoft has today announced some of its plans for Call of Duty on Xbox Cloud Gaming. Beginning with the launch of Black Ops 6 later this month, the series will be making its Xbox Cloud Gaming debut across three separate titles.
Those titles are the aforementioned Black Ops 6 (of course), alongside last year's Modern Warfare 3 and the free-to-play battle royale Call of Duty: Warzone. Warzone will mark just the second free-to-play game for Xbox Cloud Gaming - following the partnership struck with Fortnite back in 2022.
What's more, this represents quite a big milestone in regards to ActiBlizz titles getting Xbox Cloud Gaming support. If you remember, there was a whole ordeal with the merger and how Microsoft could leverage it to gain a big foothold in the cloud gaming market - an ordeal that led to Ubisoft scooping up the rights for ActiBlizz cloud games.
To be honest, we still don't fully understand Ubisoft's role in hosting cloud titles from the Activision and Blizzard teams - it's said to be "licensing" them from Xbox. We'd assume the company has now worked with Microsoft to start rolling this out - with these three Call of Duty titles being Xbox Cloud Gaming compatible starting October 25.
