A Roadmap to Black Ops 6 Launch
Starting with Black Ops 6, games will have their own individual user interfaces designed to easily get players into the modes and content they want to play.
Players will get a partial preview of the Black Ops 6 user interface during the Black Ops 6 Multiplayer Beta and at the Call of Duty: NEXT showcase event!
We think you’ll like the upcoming changes… Stick with us while we get through the first big transitional update for Season 5 Reloaded and then reap the benefits of the new system on the way to the Black Ops 6 Multiplayer Beta, launch, and into our seasonal content.
FAQ
Why are Call of Duty titles being delivered in a single location?
Our goal is to provide a place where players can come in and enjoy whatever Call of Duty experience they wish – download and play what you want, when you want. This approach also allows us to address technology and content management challenges that occured when Call of Duty games were separate installs and Call of Duty: Warzone was tied to a single annual title (Call of Duty: Modern Warfare).
This reduces the combined file size of multiple titles, promotes faster switching between games for players who play a variety of content, gives Call of Duty: Warzone a permanent home where it’s not tied to a single annual title, and allows you to share settings and social features across games.
Why do new annual titles sometimes appear as “DLC” on my platform?
With all of our content being delivered to the same location, new Call of Duty titles are downloaded to the base Call of Duty install on your platform. The base Call of Duty install acts as a central hub for you to manage and play all of your Call of Duty content, including new annual titles.
Does content that I’m not playing get automatically removed? Can I just keep individual modes from a title if I’m not playing everything?
Older content that you’re not playing does not get automatically removed from the Call of Duty install, outside of special situations where content is temporarily available, like a beta. However, you can uninstall content that you’re not using to reduce the storage space that Call of Duty takes up on your device. You can remove individual modes within annual titles if you’re only playing part of that game (e.g. uninstalling single player once you’ve finished the campaign).
What is size of the download for Black Ops 6? Earlier reports suggested that it could be a 300 GB download, is that true?
The estimated file size currently displayed on the Black Ops 6 pre-order pages does not represent the download size or disk footprint for Black Ops 6.
The sizes as shown include the full installations of Modern Warfare II, Modern Warfare III, Call of Duty: Warzone and all relevant content packs, including all localized languages combined which is not representative of a typical player install experience.
Please note that players will be able to download Black Ops 6 at launch without downloading any other Call of Duty titles or all of the language packs.
The actual estimation of the Black Ops 6 file size will be available in October.
