Call of Duty 1, 2, 4, and United Offensive Added to Microsoft Store - News

by William D'Angelo , posted on 01 January 2025 / 3,751 Views

Multiple older Call of Duty titles have appeared on the Microsoft Store on PC.

Call of Duty, Call of Duty 2, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, and Call of Duty: United Offensive have all been added to a platform they were previously not available on.

This has led to speculation that these games will be coming to Xbox Game Pass in the near future as Activision Blizzard games have slowly been added to the subscription service.

The latest Call of Duty game, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, was a day one release on Xbox Game Pass.

I used to hate COD3 but replayed it last year and fell in LOVE

With that said I think these 3 games were all Infinity Ward...
COD 3 will probably release with WAW and BO since those are all Treyarch

It would need to be ported, so it's not as easy. Shouldn't be terribly hard to port such an old game, but it's still effort that might (or might not) be better spent elsewhere.

it's nice to have complete collection, so I think the effort is needed.

Can't say I don't have some interest in playing the third game as well, since I've never played it. That said, the prices of such old games are terrible, so not likely to happen even if we do get a port. But I would appreciate a proper port nonetheless.

I have the best version of it - xbox 360, and it's okay game. it's not bad. It would be cool if it can be played on modern hardware

I have Call of Duty: Classic (Enhanced HD) on Xbox 360.
But it was never backwards compatible with Xbox One and thus Xbox Series as far as I know.

So definitely a missed opportunity there.

The Xbox One/Xbox Series has terrible original Xbox game support anyway, the Xbox 360 is ironically the better console for those games.

I would like to see some bundled remakes/remastered collections of CoD games, I always played them for the campaigns, so hopefully they can make it happen.

I waited for the OG Xbox versions to be on Xbox One/Series S/X, I saw them in retro/second hand stores, but nope it took them too long and they offer on PC which is nice. It's still something of course. But PC versions get support and what are the back compat staff doing, prepping for the next console or otherwise service? What was the point in re-establishing them again just that? Or did they?

Besthesda legacy games came to Xbox after their purchase and the program was ended by then wasn't it?

I said on articles (not that it matters) about Pitfall Lost Expedition, old COD entries on 6th gen and more ABK games on back compat for Xbox and nope, I wait and wait and nothing then this.

They could let us know sooner 'they are coming' but nope we wait, buy them up on whatever platforms older consoles (or PC which can see be possible to find, whatever condition of working and so on against hardware or Windows 10/otherwise support for old systems for software) we see copies for and they wonder why we move on and don't give them the modern platforms access of money. XD

But I got the PS2/3 versions of Big Red One, Finest Hour and COD 3, their loss for digital sales or old disk seekers to put into the system like myself using the back compat services.

I already bought up I think all but Airborne for Medal of Honor entries on console as well even the PS3/360 2010/Warfighter as well. Just got other Battlefield entries to get yet and got enough of the one off/duologies/trilogies of PS3/360, just not dug enough on 6th gen shooters yet. Literally beat some of these PS3/360 shooter one offs this year then modern games as priorities of whatever looks fun then FOMO/most games not being my thing this year compared to past years. Waited for my Indies of interest of course.

I'm a fair way through each of the COD games though and had fun so far.

Seeing United Front there alongside COD 1 is nice to see as you never know if they will cover expansions.

It's like waiting for Glover to be on modern consoles when was on PC and Evercade, like what? It's great but still what. I have waited.

Gex sure I can buy the PS1 versions of PS3/Vita or wait for the later versions on modern consoles. But some people. I get they need teams to be able to work on them but at least give us confidence or else we will go elsewhere/have bought them, played them and moved on. I haven't beat them yet but I've already made my purchases not to them and have the second hands stores. Got them for what $5 each.

COD Classic not being back compat is it's own factor and not purchasable anymore due to 360 eshop down.
