Game Pass is poised for an exciting November 2024, with the first wave concluding on November 19 with the launch of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. This suggests that announcements for the second wave of content are imminent.
The inclusion of Spyro in Game Pass aligns with the ongoing strategy to gradually introduce titles from Activision Blizzard following Microsoft’s substantial acquisition of the company. Currently, Game Pass features notable titles such as Blizzard’s Diablo 4 and Activision’s recent release, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, with even more anticipated in the future.
