Call Of Duty Black Ops 6 sold 15% less units than Modern Warfare 3 (2023) and 46% less than Modern Warfare (2022). Impacted by Game Pass!

Year-over-year:

PS5 +30%
PC -18%
Xbox -67%

PS5 accounts for 70%, PC 16%, Xbox 10% and PS4 4%.


Notable stuff about this:
PlayStation is almost 75% of all Call of Duty sales.
Xbox sales of Call of Duty are down by almost 70%.

Now the question becomes.... Do you think the gain in subscriptions from gamepass, are worth the ~70% drop in sales xbox side?

Like are MS or Xbox losing/leaving money on the table by having it in gamepass?
Remember UK is the most "pro xbox" country in europe....  Its likely like this (or worse) in most other parts of the world, outsides the USA.
