Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 manages to get the series back on track and proves that even an annual shooter can once again offer captivating quality if the right accents are set (and the necessary development time is given). After the mixed Modern Warfare 3, the weaknesses have been addressed and the focus has been placed on what Call of Duty is all about: pure action, a gripping atmosphere and a large portion of fun. All in all, Black Ops 6 is a strong overall package that provides many hours of excitement and appeals to both series fans and newcomers. The mixture of varied campaign, fast-paced multiplayer and challenging zombie mode proves that the series can still inspire with a return to old strengths and attention to detail. However, it is clear that Activision will have to balance the path after the game's release with seasons and in-game purchases in order not to undermine the long-term fun. This will show whether the new upswing that the series has experienced with Black Ops 6 will continue in the long term.
