Xbox has put numbers to what many already sensed: Call of Duty has completely dominated the year on Xbox Game Pass. The official account of the service has confirmed that the saga was not only number 1 in November, but also closed 2025 as the most played franchise of the year, both in total players and accumulated hours within the service.

The impact has been huge since Call of Duty titles joined Game Pass, boosting the activity of the catalog and strengthening the weight of the saga within the Xbox ecosystem. The global community has responded strongly, placing the series in a prominent position month after month.

Call of Duty becomes the big reference of the year on Game Pass

This performance comes at the start of Season 1 of Black Ops 7 and with Call of Duty: Warzone once again at a peak moment. Xbox highlights that the year has been particularly solid for the franchise, which has managed to stay at the forefront of the service even in months with major releases from other genres.

The post concludes by cheering “for Call of Duty and its global community“, a clear way to emphasize that the agreement is working and that the bond between the saga and Game Pass will continue to strengthen as the season progresses. With the community fully engaged and the new phase of Black Ops 7 underway, 2026 will start with the saga in top form within the service, although the saga will take a break in its release format.
