Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Campaign Review - IGN

IGN writes: "An excellent string of missions that offer variety and flexibility come together to make the best Call of Duty campaign in many, many years."

FPSRUSSIA215d ago

Good Campaign and Multiplayer Enjoyed Playing them both there going to make most of there money on PlayStation and steam since where paying full price and Xbox players are most likely going to play it on Gamepass.

Obscure_Observer215d ago (Edited 215d ago )

Indeed. It´s a Win Win for all!

Great news for COD players on Gamepass Ultimate and PC Gamepass getting spoiled with a high quality game of this caliber for "free".

crazyCoconuts215d ago

I pay for COD every year already, and that covers half a year of PC GamePass. I'm going to play all new games for 2025 as well as games i haven't tried yet for ~ $70 more for a whole year - that's a deal.
It won't last forever of course, but get it while it's hot.
The EA access alone is probably worth around half of what I'm paying. It's kinda crazy.

Elda215d ago

Playing COD: BO6 through Gamepass Ultimate is not at all free. One has to pay a subscription fee which can cost $12 on PC or $20 monthly on consoles.

Petebloodyonion215d ago

@Elda
While it's not free, I believe that \$6 CAD per month for the ultimate plan is quite affordable.

Here's the strategy:
Purchase a three-month global plan from Eneba or Penguins at a 40% discount. Then, accumulate points through the MS rewards system—I typically earn about 8,500 points—and redeem the Ultimate deal for 12,000 points. This method should effectively double your three-month plan to six months.

Tacoboto215d ago

@Pete knows what's up and how to do it! I'm pleasantly surprised MS Rewards redemption stayed at 12000 points even after they raised prices.

Eonjay215d ago

COD player here. The truth is, even if it wasn't in Gamepass, a good game IS worth the money.

northpaws215d ago

@Obscure_Observer

You were just saying "I never cared about this garbage franchise. All I want from it is to make big money to fund our Xbox first party games!"

So, is this a "garbage franchise" or "high quality game of this caliber"? Or you just make shit up every story just to make xbox looks good?

Obscure_Observer214d ago

@northpaws

Did you read the part where I said "Great news for COD players"?

I´m not a COD player. I´m not a fan of Mario games either! But I won´t act dumb and pretend that Mario games aren´t high quality.

Got it?

blacktiger214d ago

Canada - Ultimate $22.99/month

This is what happens when a studio is given enough time to make a game. They had an extra year to polish it.
And man, the multiplayer is so, so good. The movement and gunplay is the best in years, probably the best since the PS3/360 era.

RaidenBlack215d ago

People give bad rap to IW coz of last MWIII .. even though its rushed job from Sledge ...
IW is the more tech innovative studio at Acti (evolved CoD to modern format with MW'19) and their actual next project i.e CoD 2026 (4 years after MWII) might be something to look forward to

thesoftware730215d ago

I agree, everything feels super tight and polished. The graphics and animation in the campaign look excellent.

crazyCoconuts215d ago

Wow this is an awesome surprise. I love the COD campaigns and they always have some of the best production value in the business. Looking forward to playing it!

hiawa23215d ago (Edited 215d ago )

Awesome. I love the big set pieces spectacular campaigns with exception to last years version when they tried the hybrid limited open world approach. Glad to see they came back to their senses. Also looking forward to zombies. I have Gamepass Ultimate but still bought the game as I feel devs should be paid in full for their hard work on top of my GP subscription. I know I am in the minority..

crazyCoconuts215d ago

Good. You're making up for my cheap a@@ who's getting it as a steal on PC GP. Thank you! :-)

anast215d ago (Edited 215d ago )

Can I play the campaign without getting saddled with a 300gb download?

MDTunkown215d ago

Sadly no. It’s probably their marketing thing so if you want just campaign you need to download all the mp stuff and since you downloaded them why not try warzone ?

Rdeal214d ago

No you don't have to download the multiplayer stuff, well not on Xbox

thesoftware730215d ago

anast,

Yeah, you can cloud-play it with GP Ultimate.

Obscure_Observer215d ago

"Can I play the campaign without getting saddled with a 300gb download?"

You can download the base game + campaign for 67,63 GB.

anast215d ago

Full game size is 172 gb, can I just download the campaign?

PapaBop215d ago

If you really wanted to play the campaign that badly without the 300gb download, you could use Geforce Now.

COD 2025 Rumored to Be Black Ops 7 to See the Return of Wallrunning Per Datamined Files in COD HQ

There's even a video of wallrunning enabled in Black Ops 6 by messing with the game's files.

jjb19818d ago

Id rather have wallrunning than this omni-movement crap where people are sliding backwards upstairs.

FIELDMARSHALL_P8d ago

Just go back to normal human stuff wall running and that omni stuff is too much lol. I was good back in the day but this is too much

franwex8d ago (Edited 8d ago )

Wall running while Omni jumping!!

TheColbertinator8d ago

Wallrunning is dirt in FPS games. I can only stand it in action games like Prince of Persia at best.

IAMRealHooman7d ago

what happened to the 3 year dev cycle and breaks between releases?

PrecursorOrb7d ago

Gotta make that game pass appealing lol

127maXimus7d ago

Just go back to pre 2020 COD games that were more “realistic”. All the modern audience garbage and gimmicks are getting out of hand. It feels like there is an opportunity for something like BF6 to come in and do very well compared to this.

Seems kind of weird to do one now. Christmas time sure, but now....

Eonjay22d ago (Edited 22d ago )

If its a physical copy could just be clearing out stock... but this says digital so who knows. If could just be Microsoft working with Sony to move some more copies of COD.

Puty22d ago

Let us see PS5 Gears of War bundle. Then the world will end.

DigitallyAfflicted22d ago

At this point, anything is possible...

Neonridr22d ago

at this point what's the difference? CoD is the same as Gears now.
