Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 PS5 PS4 1

Treyarch has announced it's bucking the trend established by Call of Duty games of the past couple of years and won't be making the Black Ops 6 campaign available to play one week early. In Modern Warfare 2 and Modern Warfare 3, pre-ordering the game granted you seven days of early access to the campaign, meaning you could go all in on multiplayer come the official release date. That won't be the case for Black Ops 6's launch, with the campaign, multiplayer, and Zombies all made available from 25th October 2024.

The news was confirmed via a statement handed to Charlie Intel: "This year, we made the decision to ensure the community gets to dig in to any and all modes that they want at the same time, so we are back to one massive global launch moment October 25th. As such, there is no Early Access beat this year for Black Ops 6, just the countdown to launch."

In the past two Call of Duty titles, you were incentivized to complete the campaign during that early access phase with multiplayer rewards. By completing levels, you could unlock cosmetic items and other things. And, of course, once the main release date arrived, you didn't have to decide what mode you'd dedicate your time to; you could put all your focus into levelling up in multiplayer.
