Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 manages in one fell swoop to erase the bitterness left by the last chapters in the series. A far from trivial achievement, achieved thanks to a surprising campaign (in a good way, thankfully), a wide-ranging Zombie mode and a solidly reliable multiplayer package. Perhaps it is precisely this last part that shows some intolerance, thanks to a less than exciting launch offer on the side of the available modes as well as the initial maps strangely less inspired than what Treyarch has historically proposed. For all fans of the series as well as especially for those who have put it aside over the years or have never approached it, rest assured. Activision's covert operations have hit the jackpot.

The extra development time granted to the developers has allowed for a surprisingly polished and refined experience overall. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 sets a new standard for single-player campaigns in the series, blending familiar mechanics with a few, yet compelling, new ideas that entertain and amaze all the way to the end credits. The Zombie mode returns to a round-based structure, and thanks to Absolute Movement and well-designed maps, delivers a thrilling experience. The multiplayer component is even more immediate, fast-paced, and dynamic, making it nearly impossible to put the controller down between matches. What is currently missing is a more enticing map pack and some fresh additions to the game modes, but we have an entire year of content ahead to judge, which will shape the multiplayer experience until the next chapter in the series.

After a few installments that, without being mediocre, were not up to par with expectations, Treyarch puts the Call of Duty saga back where it belongs. With the best campaign mode we have enjoyed in a long time, a very fun online and with the promise of a lot of content, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is a game that lives up to the great installments of the saga such as Modern Warfare 3.

After some lacking titles, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 finally managed to return the FPS franchise to the place it deserves. The campaign is great, serving as a compelling adventure and a good introduction; the multiplayer brings varied and fun challenges; and Zombie Mode is immersive and filled with secrets. Overall, a great title, whether you're a fan or someone who hoped for a release with worth like the best ones in the series.

Set in a world of conspiracies and bioterrorism, Black Ops 6's campaign introduces new characters and unexpected narrative layers while revisiting familiar elements fans love. The gameplay merges classic, Call of Duty action with new omnidirectional movement mechanics, refining IW's earlier experiments in open-ended mission approaches.

If you’re into classic COD mechanics with some fresh twists, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is worth a shot. The new omnidirectional movement, return of round-based Zombies, and rewarding progression make this one of the more exciting COD entries.

It’s ironic, really, because, in my opinion, Call of Duty Cold War multiplayer was one of the best, which was, of course, developed by Treyarch. Yet, they managed to deliver the worst and most intolerable multiplayer experience in the franchise’s history. Unless the multiplayer gets a major buff in future updates, the zombies mode may be the content that saves Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

Black Ops 6 is a stellar entry to the Call of Duty franchise, and I’m looking forward to seeing what’s coming in future seasons. I’ve had a ton of fun playing multiplayer and zombies with my friends, as well as running through the campaign. If this is how the expectation of quality is set for how the series should continue, then consider me hopeful for the future.

Despite a few minor drawbacks, Black Ops 6 successfully breathes new life into the Call of Duty series by building upon fan-favorite elements while boldly introducing omnimovement, a mechanic that is transformative to moment-to-moment gameplay.

Call of Duty Black Ops 6 is a really solid shooter thanks to the great campaign, excellent zombies mode, and a multiplayer that's fun despite it's flaws.

Black Ops 6 has a solid foundation, with a robust Zombies mode and a campaign that it sought to revamp, but fails to capitalize on this opportunity due to the disaggregation of the multiplayer mode, which is jeopardized by inadequate map design and the abusive implementation of SBMM and EOMM.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is not something new and "fresh", but at least it's a good game for the series and the category.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is perhaps the most daring game in the franchise. The campaign dares to be a wild but entertaining mix of mind games, movement changes, horror vibes, bombastic action and agent adventures. It never gets boring. However, many of the elements also feel a little too spartan and only scratch the surface of what could actually be possible. But at least the direction is right. However, the multiplayer still has to prove itself over the months. The maps are not yet fully inspiring and do not really fit in with the new Omni-Movement, which noticeably speeds up the gameplay. So if you're looking for a fast-paced shooter experience, Black Ops 6 could be a good option.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 fires on all fronts, with a sublime campaign, an addicting Zombies mode, and refined multiplayer gameplay thanks to the new omnimovement system. This is a triumphant return for Treyarch’s beloved subseries and a shining beacon for what’s to come.

So how do we summarise Black Ops 6? With a tense and exciting campaign, going alongside the always frantic multiplayer. With a sprinkle of zombies for good measure. All in all, it’s a great addition to the Call of Duty franchise. Giving fans of the series something new as well as newcomers being welcomed in with a comprehensive experience.

Call of Duty: Black Ops marks a great comeback for Treyarch's franchise, as well as a very important restart after a MW3 made of and with laziness. The single player campaign is enthralling, the multiplayer entertains in all its forms, and the Zombies mode caters to all palates, from historical fans to new ones. A great COD.
