7 Activision Blizzard games we want to see on Game Pass | Digital Trends

Last week’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard by Microsoft shocked both the gaming and business worlds. In a post published to Xbox Wire, CEO of Microsoft Gaming Phil Spencer shared that after the deal goes through, Microsoft plans to offer many of Activision Blizzard’s titles on its Game Pass service. While no specific titles were mentioned, Spencer wrote that Microsoft will put “both new titles and games from Activision Blizzard’s incredible catalog” on both PC and Xbox Game Pass.

It’s almost certain that Spencer and Microsoft see this opportunity, but it remains to be seen whether game’s new publisher will take the storied MMO in a new direction or whether they will continue with Blizzard’s established template for the series. ~ Emily Morrow There have been a few attempted revivals of King’s Quest, but with its massive amount of capital and resources, Microsoft could create something beyond anything that’s been done before. Including the titles on Game Pass would allow a whole new generation to experience one of the classics of the early PC era and explore how an entire genre was built.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater Another 2000s gem was the Tony Hawk franchise, a series of skateboarding titles beloved by a wide legion of fans. The series’ fun skating and great soundtracks earned it a fair amount of critical acclaim that coincided with Hawk’s fame as a pro skateboarder. However, later titles in the series weren’t as well received, and Activision has done little with the IP since then besides 2020’s remake of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2.
