Is Black Ops 7 on Xbox Game Pass? How to get the new Call of Duty for free when it releases
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is launching tomorrow, and millions of players are thought to have pre-ordered already.
Treyarch’s latest offering for the iconic first-person franchise is on the cusp of being released, promising fast-paced action, a mind-bending campaign and the intense multiplayer fans know and love.
While some players have figured out a glitch to get the game already, others are still undecided as to whether or not they want to pick up this year’s game - especially after Black Ops 6 was underwhelmingly received.
If you have not yet made your mind up, but are playing on Xbox, there is actually a way to get the game for free, meaning you won’t struggle with buyers remorse if you dislike the game (or are simply getting bodied online).
Here’s everything you need to know about pre-ordering and pre-loading Black Ops 7, including how to download the game without spending a penny.
Can I pre-order Black Ops 7?
Even though the release of the game is less than 12 hours away, the game is still available for pre-order on all platforms.
The standard edition of Black Ops 7 is £69.99, but there is also a £99.99 vault edition, which includes an operator collection, the season one BlackCell battle pass, the Reznov challenge pack, a permanent unlock token, the Guild Override weapon camo, a mastercraft weapon collection and the ultra gobblegum pack for zombies.
Pre-order bonuses will be unavailable for purchase once the game goes live.
How to play Black Ops 7 for free
After Microsoft acquired Activision in a multi-million dollar deal last year, some changes have been made that allow some players to download the game for free.
Like its predecessor Black Ops 6, the new Call of Duty will be free via the Xbox Game Pass. Gamers must have the Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass tiers, which cost £22.99 and £13.49 per month respectively.
