Activision has unveiled exciting new features coming to Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, launching soon on October 25th. With the game's day-one inclusion in Xbox Game Pass, analysts offer varying predictions on its impact on the subscription service's user base.
The developers have added an arachnophobia toggle to the Zombies mode. This setting alters the appearance of spider-like enemies without affecting gameplay. The change primarily involves visual modifications, as shown in the image below: spider zombies are rendered legless, giving the impression they're floating. While the developers haven't detailed hitbox adjustments, it's likely the hitbox is proportionally smaller.
Another welcome addition is the "Pause and Save" feature for solo players in Round-Based mode. This allows players to pause, save their progress, and reload with full health, mitigating the frustration of starting over after death.
Black Ops 6's day-one launch on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass has sparked debate among industry analysts. While some predict a significant surge in subscribers (3-4 million), others suggest a more moderate increase (around 2.5 million, representing a 10% rise in Game Pass Ultimate subscribers). This latter prediction acknowledges the possibility of existing subscribers upgrading from lower-tier Game Pass plans.
The success of this strategy is crucial for Microsoft's gaming division, as noted by industry expert Dr. Serkan Toto. The performance of Black Ops 6 on Game Pass will be a key indicator of the platform's future success.
