Ah, Black Ops 7. Seriously, feels like it’s been forever since Activision dangled that carrot at us. I mean, remember June? They teased us with that trailer, right at the end of the Xbox Showcase—then poof, vanished into thin air. Classic, right?
So, they promised more info in the summer. But nailed down a date? Nope. It’s like waiting for a bus that you’re not sure is even on the schedule. Or maybe that’s just me being impatient. Summer’s halfway done, we’re past mid-July. Finally, we hear August is the time. Mark your calendars or don’t—up to you.
They’re rolling it out at gamescom Opening Night Live on August 19. It’s funny because Call of Duty—like, these games usually get their own limelight, standalone events. But hey, maybe they’re mixing things up. Who knows what we’re seeing then. Maybe just a teaser of what’s to come later in the month or next. It’s all up in the air, but the whispers of a September beta are getting louder.
The game’s got buzz about going back to a near-future vibe, and oh, co-op in the campaign? Sounds like fun, but could just be rumors at this point. Fans are hoping for some kind of storyline tie-in with Black Ops 6—even if it’s just a little breadcrumb. It’d be smart to spill those beans sooner rather than later, yeah?
And release date? November seems like a safe bet, if history repeats itself, for all the platforms we’d expect—PC, PS-whatever-number-they’re-on-now, Xbox versions too. We keep waiting, don’t we?
