I remember people saying "time will tell" how much MS valued the lost revenue/profits of supposed lost sales due to people having gamepass.
And the argument always ended in "time will tell, lets see what happend when the next CoD is released".

The proof is in the pudding.
It cost them too much.

Hence the no more day1, CoD not being in gp anymore, and the prices going up.
Also them raising the price to 30$ a month.... and the only gain is just 1440p streaming.... That is a tough sell imo.

Like I mentioned above they made the most money with BO6 of all the COD games (Acitivision) while also being on Gamepass nothing points to a loss but Greed. They know some will just buy the game instead while a bunch will upgrade the Gamepass tier so they even get more $$$.

Anyway I suspect many will upgrade in 2026 because will you buy FH6? Gears Eday? Halo game? Fable ? and more...

Anyway how many first day releases we had this year and last year so we can have a guess what 75 day one releases mean?  (Ubisoft will then have a few)

They spent 75.4 billion to purchase Activision.  They need to make back that money as quickly as possible.
