Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Confirms Worldwide Reveal Date
It’s unknown exactly what will be shown during the event, but given that newCall of Dutytitles often launch in late October/early November, there’s a strong chance that fans are given their very first look atBlack Ops 7gameplay. Although there are very few official details on the game so far, there have been a ton ofleaks surroundingBlack Ops 7. Just a few weeks after the game’s first trailer, Treyarch Studios accidentally published a new message of the day inBlack Ops 6, which featured unseen images ofBlack Ops 7and details on some new game modes. According to the leak,Black Ops 7will feature a new 20v20 Multiplayer mode known as Skirmish. Players will battle it out and complete various objectives, such as capturing points of interest, destroying payloads, and more.
Despite previous leaks, Activision has also gone on record to confirm thatBlack Ops 7will not feature wall-running or jetpacks. The studio revealed that the shooter will feature an evolution of omnimovement, a new system introduced inBlack Ops 6that allows players to run, jump, and dive in any direction, but will not have wall-running or jetpacks as some fans were led to believe.
Call of Dutyfans were confident thatBlack Ops 7would feature some form of wall-running after certainWarzoneplayers managed to access in-game files with the movement system earlier this year. Why these files were added to the game still remains a mystery, as Activision has assured fans thatBlack Ops 7will be a boots-on-the-ground shooter.
