Xbox Game Pass Expands Its Library With Call of Duty: Vanguard
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Call of Duty: Vanguard has officially joined the Xbox Game Pass library for Ultimate, Premium, and PC subscribers, adding Sledgehammer Games' 2021 shooter to the growing subscription lineup.
Microsoft is continuing to flesh out its subscription library by adding Call of Duty: Vanguard to Xbox Game Pass. Subscribers on console and PC can now jump into the 2021 World War 2 shooter as part of their membership tiers. This move follows a steady rollout of franchise entries arriving on the platform since the finalization of the Activision Blizzard acquisition, giving players easier access to major titles without a separate upfront purchase.
Developed by Sledgehammer Games, Vanguard drops players into the closing days of World War 2 to follow the origins of an international special forces unit. Alongside its cinematic campaign, the package includes classic multiplayer lobbies and a Zombies mode developed in collaboration with Treyarch. While community rumors had pointed to this specific release for months, the arrival solidifies Microsoft's strategy of leveraging its massive catalog to drive subscription value.
For modern players who treat gaming as a connected, cross-platform space, growing the Game Pass library with recognizable multiplayer staples keeps community queues active. It also lowers the barrier of entry for friends wanting to squad up on a whim. As June continues to deliver major updates across subscription services, adding another legacy entry gives both returning fans and newcomers plenty of reasons to clear some hard drive space.
