Perhaps one of the most curious records has to do with the subscription service of Game Pass. According to Microsoftthe launch of the new Call of Duty led to breaking subscription records in a single day.

Yes ok Microsoft did not declare specific numbers, some analysts estimate that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 could have brought between 2.5 and 4 million new subscribers to the service Game Pass. However, this in turn could cost the game approximately 6 million copies sold. Furthermore, analysts indicate that nothing prevents these new users from canceling their subscriptions after their first month, which would lead to a drop in the number of players.
