Call of Duty: Black OCall of Duty: Black Ops 6 – What We Know So Farps 6 is set to launch on October 25, 2024, and it’s coming to PS5, XSX|S, PC, XBO, and PS4. Here's a breakdown of the new features and gameplay enhancements to expect:

Gameplay Innovations

A major new addition is Omnimovement, which lets you sprint, slide, and dive in any direction, bringing a fresh level of freedom to movement. The game also introduces Intelligent Movement, offering smoother transitions between actions like crouching, mantling, and sprinting. These mechanics could significantly change how players experience the game’s pace and flow.

Multiplayer Maps and Modes

At launch, Black Ops 6 will feature 16 new multiplayer maps: 12 Core 6v6 maps and four Strike maps designed for intense 2v2 or 6v6 matches. Each map tells its own story, set after the events of the campaign. Multiplayer fans will also see the return of Classic Prestige and Theatre Mode.

A standout new mode, Kill Order, pits two teams in a 6v6 respawn match, with a focus on High Value Targets (HVT). Eliminating the opposing team’s HVT scores the most points, adding a new strategic layer to team combat.

Campaign Setting

The game’s story is set after the fall of the Soviet Union, focusing on the Gulf War and major events of the '90s. The teaser video featured political figures such as George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Margaret Thatcher, hinting at key historical events that may influence the campaign’s plot. Expect the game to explore the aftermath of Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait in 1990, though Black Ops has been known to creatively alter timelines.

Zombies Mode

The popular Zombies mode returns, this time set on Terminus Island, continuing the Dark Aether storyline. Players can explore two launch maps: Terminus and Liberty Falls. Key features include:

  • Salvage currency
  • Mystery Boxes
  • Five GobbleGums per loadout
