It’s official. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has been confirmed as this year’s big game for the franchise.
Activision said a Black Ops 6 Direct event will follow the Xbox Games Showcase on Sunday June 9. The showcase starts at 10 a.m. for the full reveal, with a Black Ops 6 Direct immediately following.
As the lead studio, Treyarch has had four years to work on Black Ops 6, which is an unusual length for the typical Call of Duty three-year development cycle. The tagline for the marketing campaign is The Truth Lies. Raven Software has also been working on the game.
Leaks have suggested that Black Ops 6 will carry on the story from the 1980s setting of the previous game, Black Ops: Cold War, to the Gulf War of 1990-91. The teaser, however, suggests a kind of civil war in the U.S., using the mysterious Cerberus logo. Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson expects the game to debut on October 25.

Microsoft acquired the Call of Duty franchise with its $68.7 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard last October. Other reports suggest that Call of Duty is coming to Xbox Game Pass, and that may accompany a change in the pricing tiers for the subscription service.
