Microsoft’s determination to destroy the great reputation of Game Pass continues apace, with the news that the corporation has suddenly pulled its years-long offer of a two-week trial subscription for a dollar,

Microsoft has removed access to a potentially useful option from Xbox Game Pass less than two weeks before the launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. The Xbox Game Pass subscription option might have given budget-conscious players a chance to play Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 for much less than its retail asking price.

Microsoft is no longer offering $1 Game Pass trials, killing the option just days before Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 launches into Game Pass on October 25. So anyone who wanted to sign up for the 14-day $1 trial to play Black Ops 6 won't have the ability to do that effective immediately.
