Get ready, gamers! November is shaping up to be a blockbuster month for Xbox Game Pass, with a wave of exciting titles hitting the platform. The headline act? None other than Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, arriving on day one! But that's just the beginning.
Kicking things off on November 5th is Dead Static Drive, an indie survival-horror experience that throws you into a retro road trip. Sharing the launch date is Sniper Elite: Resistance, a tactical third-person shooter with intense sniper mechanics and a co-op campaign.
But here's where it gets interesting. On November 6th, the spotlight shifts. While Call of Duty is a big deal, the real star might be Egging On, a quirky platformer where you control an egg trying to escape a hen house. Imagine navigating treacherous obstacles with nothing but your fragile shell! Alongside it comes Whiskerwood, a strategy game where you, as mice, build colonies under the watchful eye of a feline overlord.
The game releases continue with Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris and Pigeon Simulator on November 11th. Then, the highly anticipated Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 arrives on November 14th, boasting 16 6v6 maps and two 20v20 maps at launch.
And this is the part most people miss... Microsoft recently increased the price of the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription to $30 per month, a significant jump from the previous $20. This means a 50% increase in cost. The good news is, you'll need that Ultimate tier to play games like Call of Duty on release day.
