Microsoft’s
costly
acquisition
of
Activision
Blizzard
netted
the
company
access
to
one
of
the
biggest
IPs
in
all
of
gaming,
but
it
also
provided
a
catalogue
of
games
with
which
to
supply

Game
Pass.
Despite
this,
Microsoft
has
been
very
slow
in
adding
Activision
titles
to
the
service.
But
according
to
a
new
report,
we
might
start
getting
a
few
classics
soon.

Leaker
eXtas1s
has
a
mixed
record
when
it
comes
to
leaking
information,
with
one
very
important
exception:
their
Game
Pass
scoops
have
been
almost
100%
accurate.

According
to
eXtas1s
who
posted
on
the
Exputer
forums,
the
Crash
Bandicoot
N.
Sane
Trilogy,
which
is
a
remaster
of
the
first
three
Crash
games
originally
developed
by
Naughty
Dog,
” will
land
on
Game
Pass
sometime
in
August.”

This
report
has
been

backed
up
by
Windows
Central
who
published
their
article:
 “Windows
Central’s
sources
can
corroborate
this
information,
meaning
Xbox
players
can
look
forward
to
embarking
on
adventures
with
the
Wumpa-seeking
bandicoot
in
a
few
weeks.”

eXtas1s
also
mentioned
that
they
are
looking
forward
to
the
arrival
of

Tony
Hawk
1+2
and
the

Spyro
Reignited
Trilogy.
Both
are
fantastic
games,
but
sadly
eXtas1s
isn’t
sure
when
they
will
be
added
to
the
service,
saying
that
they
are
“coming
very
soon
but
I
cannot
guarantee
their
arrival
to
the
service
in
the
same
month.”

As
for
Call
of
Duty,
we
know
that
they
are
coming
to
Game
Pass
at
some
point
in
the
future,
but
eXtas1s
doesn’t
know
anything
about
them:
 “I
currently
have
no
information
about
whether
they
will
arrive
in
August,
or
whether
we’d
have
to
wait
even
longer.”

The
upcoming
Call
of
Duty:
Black
Ops
6
will
launch
on
Game
Pass
on
day
1,
however.

Personally,
I’m
rather
surprised
by
Microsoft’s
reticence
regarding
adding
Activision
Blizzard’s
catalogue
of
games
to
Game
Pass.
While
I
think
it’s
smart
to
dish
out
them
out
slowly,
it’s
baffling
to
me
that
we
haven’t
gotten
at
least
a
few
more
by
this
point.
Hopefully,
if
eXtas1s
is
correct
the
dam
may
be
breaking
very
soon.
