I Can't Wait To See What Xbox Does With Activision This Year | Pure Xbox
January 8, 2025 - We're finally past those days now, and I feel like 2024 was a year where nothing crazy was ever going to happen in regards to the Xbox and Activision Blizzard partnership, aside from a few additions to Xbox Game Pass (perhaps less than expected in the end) alongside any previously-planned releases such as Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

r/XboxGamePass on Reddit: Xbox Showcase had zero mention of Activision back catalog - disappointing
December 26, 2024 -
When MSFT acquired ATVI - at the time Phil Spencer said, unlike Bethesda, the reason the back catalog wasn’t immediately on Gamepass was ‘technical work that needed to be done’.
Here we are well over 18 months later and Microsoft has communicated almost nothing regarding the back catalog. Every few months a seemingly random title gets added, but otherwise it’s crickets.
I was really hoping at the developer showcase, after showing THPS 3+4 they’d mention ‘oh yeah, THPS 1+2 is available now on Gamepass’. Something like that, anything like that.
*I’ve already played through the game on my Switch, but I was hoping to replay it on my Xbox prior to 3+4 without having to double dip.
So what gives? It wouldn’t bug me so much if they said something about what their strategy is, but it’s the radio silence that really bugs me on this one.

It’s the Nintendo plan for that backlog, wait for a break between releases you can’t fix and wham use your get out of jail free card (2-3 games from the backlog) and drop em. They’ll never release the catalog at one time. When they can use that list of games as a free for all buffer.

It will take years to hit and I have a feeling OG/360 titles will never come to the catalogue
