Summary
Activision has confirmed that the next trailer forCall of Duty: Black Ops 6is live-action and releases on May 28, with other recent news hinting at what fans might see in the teaser. Although some might be slightly disappointed with a live-action trailer, there will be a much larger event for those awaitingCall of Duty: Black Ops 6not long after the video’s release.
On June 9,Black Ops 6will get its full reveal, which will likely include in-game footage. That reveal event is part of the Xbox June Showcase, where other Xbox-related projects will be shown off. The event’s lineup is not public, but rumors range from a newDOOMgame toGears of War 6toOuter Worlds 2. ButCoDfans can expect new info much sooner.
Black Ops 6’s live-action trailer drops at 10 a.m. ET on Tuesday, May 28. A thumbnail for the unreleased trailer is already viewable onCall of Duty’s YouTube account, which shows the tagline “The Truth Lies” with an image of Saddam Hussein and coordinates to the ruler’s former palace in Baghdad. This seems to further confirm previous rumors ofBlack Ops 6being set during the Gulf War, when a coalition of nations faced off with a Hussein-led Iraqi military. True to its name,Call of Duty’s nextBlack Opstitle seems to follow some sort of covert intrigue set during the major military conflict.
Black Ops 6’s Next Trailer
Activision has managed to avoid any major gameplay leaks so far; however, a purportedBlack Ops 6menu screenrecently made its way onto the internet. The leak’s validity has not been confirmed yet, but it shows an in-game menu screen that’s basically identical to the menus seen in recentModern Warfaretitles.
It also seems thatBlack Ops 6will release on last-genconsoles. While this is good news for Xbox One and PS4 owners, it means the franchise will be affected by the limitations of those older devices for at least another year.
So far, themarketing for Treyarch’s nextCall of Dutyplaces lots of emphasis on anti-establishment themes, with images of famous government landmarks like Mount Rushmore and Brandenburg Gate being defaced. This isn’t that unusual for theBlack Opsseries, as some of the previous games painted intelligence agencies, in particular, in a flashy but very murky light.
