Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 drops on November 14, 2025 on PlayStation 4 & 5, Xbox One & Series X/S, and PC (Battle.net and Steam). It’s also a Day One title on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass, with support for Xbox Play Anywhere.

Get your hands dirty early—open beta details

You won’t have to wait to get in on the action. The multiplayer beta runs October 2–8. Early access starts October 2 for pre-order holders and Game Pass subscribers; then it’s open to all on October 5.

A story of legacy, fear, and global stakes

Black Ops 7 flings you into 2035, following David “Section” Mason leading a JSOC squad against the return of Raul Menéndez. It’s a twisted co-op campaign you can tackle solo or with up to four players, with interconnected progression across campaign, multiplayer, and Zombies.

Complete the campaign’s missions, and you unlock Endgame—a massive 32-player showdown in Avalon that pits you against time and chaos.

Multiplayer, but supersized

The action doesn’t stop in campaign. You get 16 classic 6v6 maps, plus two massive 20v20 Skirmish maps, featuring wingsuits, grappling hooks, and jaw-dropping mobility tools—like wall-runs and advanced Omnimovement. The new Overclock system lets you tweak your loadouts to push weapons and gear further.

Zombies rises—to next-level madness

Round-based Zombies returns bigger than ever. Expect expansive maps, Wonder Vehicles, familiar and mutated Requiem crew, and Dead Ops Arcade 4 for retro top-down thrills.

Progress that travels with you

This game learns your habits. It rolls in a connected progression system—XP, prestige, weapon camo, calling cards, daily challenges—from campaign, multiplayer, and Zombies, all rolling together. Hats off to Treyarch for making sure your grind counts everywhere.

Big names, bigger ambitions

You're not just playing—you're starring. Milo Ventimiglia comes back as David Mason, and Kiernan Shipka plays Emma Kagan, head of The Guild. Together, they face fear turned into a weapon.

This entry also reinvents fears of franchise fatigue with bold new modes like the 20-player Skirmish, unprecedented Zombies maps, and a strong push for innovation.
