Black Ops returns with an epic, gripping story and mind-bending blockbuster action in the most treacherous plot yet with Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

Set in the '90s, this new experience delivers the most breathtaking and spectacular Black Ops action until now, where players have to question everything and trust no one. The truth lies. 

The Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 campaign features dynamic moment-to-moment gameplay, featuring different mission styles with spectacular action-packed set pieces, high-stakes heists and high-secret espionage activities. In a premier multiplayer experience, players can test their skills on 16 new maps at launch, including 12 6v6 core maps and four Strike maps that can be played in 2v2 or 6v6. 

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 also marks the epic return of Round-Based Zombies, the fan-favorite mode that sees players slay hordes of the undead in two brand new maps at launch. After launch, players can look forward to even more exciting maps and new gameplay experiences in both Multiplayer and Zombies.

Get ready, because Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Call of Duty: Warzone, and Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile are leveling up on November 14 with the launch of Season 01!

This massive content drop brings six new Multiplayer maps, new Weapons, new Modes, an all-new Zombies experience, full Call of Duty: Warzone and Call of Duty: Warzone: Mobile integration, and so much more! Plus, Season 01's Operators include The Replacer, the BlackCell Goliath Operator, and Sevati "Sev" Dumas headlining the Battle Pass

Here's an overview of what's coming in Season 01:

Black Ops 6:

  • Five Maps, One Variant: Three brand-new maps arrive at the start of Season 01 (6v6: Hideout, Extraction | Strike 2v2/6v6: Heirloom). At mid-season players can enjoy the brand-new strike map Racket, the return of the map Hacienda, and a festive-themed Nuketown
