Call of Duty Black Ops 6 launches on October 25, featuring a campaign longer than Black Ops Cold War’s five-hour playtime. Developer Treyarch confirmed the campaign would mimic classic Call of Duty lengths, offering six to eight hours of gameplay. Set in the early 90s post-Cold War, players will encounter familiar characters like Adler and Woods, alongside new features enhancing immersion. The game will be available at midnight for consoles and 6 AM for PC gamers in France.
On October 25, the highly anticipated Call of Duty Black Ops 6 will be released. While many fans eagerly await the Multiplayer and Zombies modes, the campaign is also generating excitement and we have some promising news: it will be longer than the campaign in Black Ops Cold War!
Campaign Duration Exceeds Cold War’s
In recent years, the campaigns in Call of Duty games have often been criticized for their brevity. However, Black Ops 6 aims to break that trend.
Earlier this year, Yale Miller, a developer at Treyarch, mentioned to Game File that the campaign would mirror the length of a “classic” Call of Duty title, offering between six to eight hours of gameplay. This has been recently confirmed by Raven Software, the game’s co-developer, during an interview with IGN.
To recall, when Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War launched in 2020, players were taken aback, and many felt let down, as its single-player mode was only around five hours long. This brevity was particularly disappointing given the high expectations since Call of Duty Black Ops 4 omitted its Story mode in favor of a focus on Multiplayer and Zombies.
Exciting Campaign Ahead
The campaign in Call of Duty Black Ops 6 will continue the story after Black Ops Cold War, set in the early 90s during a time of Soviet Union collapse and growing government distrust. Players will navigate a world filled with questions about who to trust. Fans will also be thrilled to reunite with beloved characters from the franchise, including Adler and Woods.
As for gameplay, the title promises to be more immersive and action-oriented, introducing new features like an omni-movement system that allows players to dive in multiple directions and engage in combat from a 360° angle, complemented by a human shield mechanic.
The game will officially launch on October 25, although availability may vary by region and platform. In France, PC players using Steam and Battle.net can start playing Black Ops 6 at around 6 am, while console gamers on PlayStation and Xbox will have access from midnight on October 25.
With the clock ticking down to its release, Call of Duty Black Ops 6 is set to make its grand debut on consoles and PC. Although its official launch date is October 25, players can already pre-download the game. Here’s everything you need to get ready for the action!
