How to play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III via Game Pass
Unfortunately, you cannot play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 via Xbox or PC Game Pass. This is because Microsoft has only recently acquired Activision Blizzard and due to regulatory hurdles, the game won’t be seen on Game Pass anytime soon. The game can be played by purchasing it from Steam, the PlayStation store, or the Microsoft Store on Xbox for the respective platforms.
The game’s description reads:
“The game brings “open combat” offering players more choices in approaching the single-player missions. Makarov returns as the chief villain of the new campaign.
The newly introduced Carry Forward system will let players keep their progression and inventory from Modern Warfare II. Multiplayer fans can expect 16 maps at the launch and at least 12 coming later. Zombies mode will also return and should offer the largest zombie map to date.”
