Rumors suggested that the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 launch would appear on previous-gen consoles, and now we have confirmation from Microsoft.

The Xbox Game Pass app on iOS and Android has been blasting out notifications to let people know “Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is coming to Game Pass on day one later this year!” It looks like someone at Microsoft pushed the notification too early because it links to an article that doesn’t exist yet. Activision will debut a Black Ops 6 live action trailer at 10AM ET / 7AM PT / 3PM UK today.
A short video from Square Enix reveals that Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D, a remake of the 1988 RPG, will come to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
Square Enix first announced it in 2021 alongside Dragon Quest 12, and we could soon get a release date. The charming art style is reminiscent of Octopath Traveler, which uses the same engine.
That’s according to Insider Gaming, which says the game will show up at Microsoft’s Xbox Games Showcase on June 9th. The site says the game has been four years in the making, and will be set in a “medieval inspired doom world.”
Until then, might as well relive 2016’s Doom and its sequel, Doom Eternal.

Despite the upsetting news that Xbox is shutting down Hi-Fi Rush studio, Tango Gameworks, there is still some time before the lights go out for good.

Update: And here’s the final patch notes.
