Treyarch's Black Ops campaigns are renowned for their departure from reality and their tendency to get a bit bizarre, and the latest marketing trailer suggests that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will uphold this tradition this year. The new Black Ops 6 trailer presents in-game footage and cinematics from the forthcoming campaign. The action showcased appears to be the typical over-the-top Call of Duty experience, but one of the most intriguing moments is almost easy to miss. The trailer features a brief POV of a character plummeting from the sky, observing fragmented landmasses and flying palm trees swirling above them. The scene resembles an impossible storm, possibly hinting at a complex, mind-bending twist in the story.
Moreover, the narrative is set years after the events of Black Ops Cold War, with the Black Ops 6 campaign taking place in the 1990s during the Gulf War. The trailer also showcases political figures such as Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush, and Saddam Hussein, along with familiar Call of Duty characters like Frank Woods and Russell Adler. More details about the Black Ops 6 campaign, including multiplayer and Zombies announcements, can be found here.
Marketing for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is intensifying as the game prepares for its global launch on October 25 across Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC. A leak from ForwardLeaks indicates that Call of Duty is collaborating with Little Caesars for an upcoming promotion offering pizza-themed Black Ops 6 rewards, including an operator skin, calling card, and XP tokens. While Activision has not confirmed this potential promotion, Treyarch has assured that a 'wealth of information' regarding Black Ops 6 will be revealed in the coming weeks leading up to the game's launch.
