Another month of Game Pass additions means another Call of Duty title has been added for players to dabble in while they wait for Black Ops 7 to launch later this year.
Call of Duty: WWII will launch on Game Pass for PC and console on June 30, bringing the underrated title to the service for players who either miss those days or missed out on the game entirely when it launched in 2017 for PS4 and Xbox One.
WWII stands out as a CoD game for its Headquarters feature, a home base where players could meet up, walk around, purchase contracts, and open controversial supply drops. There really hasn't been anything like it before or since in the franchise, and it's something that many players enjoyed at the time.
It features a campaign, Nazi Zombies mode, and multiplayer with new and remastered maps, such as Carentan, a classic from the original CoD and CoD 2. I remember not playing the game for long compared to some other CoD titles, but I do remember enjoying what I did play.
Game Pass will feature the base game, but none of its season pass DLC, which included multiplayer maps, Zombies maps, and more. CoD: WWII launched before the franchise moved to its current model of free seasonal content, so a good chunk of the final game will be missing.
WWII was made by Sledgehammer Games (CoD MWIII and CoD: Vanguard) and Raven Software (Warzone), and it serves as a trip down memory lane for elder gamers like myself, whereas some younger players may get to experience it for the first time.
When it comes to Game Pass on June 30, WWII will join Black Ops 6, MWII, and MWIII as the only other CoD titles on the service, but that list is expected to grow steadily over time after Microsoft's mega-deal purchase of Activision a few years back.
