"He added that this is almost entirely due to a drop in sales on Xbox, which was inevitable due to the game being available on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate."

Makes sense. MS been talking about GP growth so this is most likely what they want. Be interesting to see how much Growth they've seen but I dunno I just cant see "millions of ppl" joining GP just for COD. At most I can MS cracking a million GP subs total from COD. However they need to continue the releases like Stalker, Indy, Avowed, Doom next year. Not just one game but a string of good first party games

"Black ops 6 sales
Dring also reported that PS5 sales of Call of Duty: Black Ops VI remain steady year-on-year in comparison to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, suggesting that the former’s availability on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate at launch has not affected PS5 sales, as some had estimated."

I don't see why the PS5 version would be phased at all. There's a large community on PS that play with their friends every year. Why would they give that up just to play on Xbox and GP? Same with Steam, Windows last gen consoles, you won't see any conversions happening or very little conversions.

Interesting statistics none the less.

Non story. This is just about Physical Disc sales that's declining. No point owning Call of Duty on disc since it's just a license key. You can't blame Game Pass if we don't have any digital game data.

Seems kind of weird to do one now. Christmas time sure, but now....

If its a physical copy could just be clearing out stock... but this says digital so who knows. If could just be Microsoft working with Sony to move some more copies of COD.
