crissindahouse said: How do you want to measure it? I mean, I guess you would just check Gamepass numbers from the CoD release month and compare it with the month before but that would be illogical. And not to forget, more players means more people paying for in-game currency and stuff like that. That's the whole reason why Fortnite prints so much money. CoD had more players than ever which probably means it also has more people paying for skins or the next DLC. |
Your right, its not as easy as looking at Gamepass subs 3 months down the line, and comparing to how they were 3 months before.
However, if the jump in subscriptions was big enough, you could do that calculation (compared to what you expect they lost in sales).
Ultimate its only Xbox themselves that will know.
Maybe there is more micro transactions on Xbox side, and that then makes up for some of it, that could happen.
Even if we got revenue numbers from Call of Duty, its hard to compare one years vs another.
Its a tough question to answer.
I guess time will tell, if it was a good choice, by how they handle it for the next call of duty?
Like if there are more gamepass changes based around CoD? or if next year its not in gamepass?
