Rumor: Call of Duty Could Be Launching Its Own Subscription Service

A recent job posting suggests Activision may be prepping up to launch its own subscription service centered around Call of Duty content.

One of the biggest gaming franchises in the world, Call of Duty, might be getting ready for its next big update. A new Activision job posting hints at a possible subscription service on the way, indicating what the future of Call of Duty may look like for fans.

According to the listing on the Activision Careers page, the Call of Duty: Warzone maker is looking to fill up a Manager and Influencer Marketing role for Call of Duty. In it, the post mentions a “line up of innovations in curated player experiences, multi-platform game play, subscription-based content, mobile game development, and a move to always on community and player connectivity.” Dubbed as “CoD 2.0,” fans could likely expect Call of Duty‘s own subscription service for future content before the end of 2022 as per the job posting.

However, not a lot of details have been shared publicly about what this subscription service would look like in terms of content or pricing structure. Although some speculate that the service could be similar to Fortnite Crew Subscription while others expect this to follow along the lines of some form of Xbox Game Pass. But this isn’t the first time news of a Call of Duty subscription service has surfaced. Back in June 2021, it was rumored that Call of Duty was considering adding a 6-month/12-month Battle Pass service with the 12-month option possibly offering a free new Call of Duty title. Whether this service will be in line with what’s indicated in the job posting, time will tell.


Of course, Activision isn’t the only company that’s exploring subscription-based offerings. The likes of Ubisoft and EA already offer content-based subscription services for fans. Following the success of Microsoft’s Game Pass and now with Sony’s revamped PlayStation Plus on the way, it’s likely that more gaming companies will look to adopt the subscription model, beyond the typical battle pass format. In the case of Activision, the prospect of more Call of Duty content will likely be exciting for many, particularly after rumors of Activision possibly moving away from the yearly mainline Call of Duty title release schedule (something that Activision itself has denied). Regardless, it will be interesting to see how the fanbase responds to a Call of Duty subscription service, assuming one actually materializes.
