Update: Activision has confirmed that this rumor is gang sex in initiation videosfalse, and Call of Duty currently has no plans to add a paid requirement for limited-time game modes.

Call of Duty 2025, which will reportedly be Black Ops 7, has a ton of rumors swirling around it ahead of launch. The latest one claims CoD is planning to make players pay for the ability to play limited-time modes, gating rewards behind completing challenges for it.

CoD has been finding new ways to monetize for over a decade in an attempt to recoup the dev cost of making new content over the course of the game’s yearly release. Some of these methods like Operator skins have been, for the most part at least, well-received by section of the community that’s willing to pay for them. When they’re not pay-to-win, anyways.

However, leaker GhostOfHope, someone who has a solid track record when it comes to leaks about the series, claims that CoD 2025 is making a major change to its Battle Pass structure that may gate limited-time modes behind a paywall.

Not only will you have to buy the pass to get access to rewards, you won’t even have access to the mode without it.

CoD 2025 rumored to put LTMs behind Battle Pass

With Microsoft feeling the crunch of current economic conditions, they’ve chosen to raise the price of Xbox consoles and their big-budget first-party games going forward. That almost certainly includes the next CoD entry.

However, Game Pass still exists and, though it has slowly gone up in price over the years, it’s still a much cheaper option than buying CoD outright. So, in order to get value out of people accessing the game through Game Pass, Activision will have to get creative.

Rumors point to them changing their Battle Pass structure, doing away with Event Passes entirely and making the event part of the normal BP. However, in order to get access to play the limited-time mode at all, you’ll have to buy into the pass.

“Black Ops 7 will reportedly have more seasonal LTM’s and some of them would be considered ‘higher value’ with unique rewards and different game mechanics/modes BUT the only way to play the LTMs will be to have the battle pass unlike how it’s currently free for everyone,” GhostOfHope claimed.

“They are planning on taking the higher tier skins, loot, and crossover operators for LTMs and making them only accessible to Battle Pass owners instead of having the ‘Premium Event Track’ we currently get during Reloaded updates.”

So, the devs are reportedly trying to sweeten the pot for those who are willing to pay for the Battle Pass, but also making it so there’s actual content gated behind the pass.

It is worth mentioning this isn’t exactly uncharted territory for the CoD series, far from it. For years, new maps were gated behind DLC packs, whereas a lot of that new content is now free for players.

The real question is, if these rumors come to fruition, whether or not the Battle Pass will cost more as a result of these changes.
