Activision is going hard on promoting the newest Call of Duty title. That is because Black Ops 6 is the first title of the franchise to be released in Game Pass since day one. Microsoft is going almost all-in with their subscription service, so CoD: BO6 is required to show great numbers in terms of player count and other metrics. 

With two and a half weeks remaining till the release, Activision brings out the launch trailer, in which Black Ops 6 is called the Blockbuster event of the year.

While the setting of the 1990s might be intriguing, and all the beloved characters from the franchise are in action, to be honest, it does not sell the game immediately. The problem is that not all of the single-player campaigns were great, and while the action scenes pump up the adrenaline, is it possible to elevate the game and raise the stakes higher?

In addition, some players keep being vocal about different nuances of the multiplayer. Considering, that Black Ops 6 will be available in Game Pass, we should track not only the player count at the launch but some time after as well, as Game Pass will be a great excuse to try the game but the game itself must be good enough for people to stay.
