It is the twenty-second installment of the Call of Duty series and is the eighth main entry in the Black Ops sub-series, following Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 (2024). Set in 2035, Black Ops 7's story—playable in single-player or co-op—follows a JSOC unit led by David Mason in the aftermath of Call of Duty: Black Ops II (2012). As with previous Call of Duty titles, the game also includes a multiplayer component and the cooperative round-based Zombies mode. Development on Black Ops 7 took place concurrently with the production of Black Ops 6, with both titles being green-lit at the same time. Marketing for the title began in June 2025 with the release of a cinematic trailer during the 2025 Xbox Games Showcase event; a full reveal debuted on August 19, at Gamescom. Black Ops 7 was released on November 14, 2025, for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Call of Duty: Black Ops 7—like its predecessor, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 (2024)—is a first-person shooter.[4] Depending on the game mode selected, players use near-future military equipment, such as weapons, "field upgrades", and "scorestreaks", to combat AI opponents, other human players, or undead creatures.[2] Players can traverse a level/map omnidirectionally, and can perform "wall jumps" off of select walls;[3] in a change from Black Ops 6, the "Tactical Sprint" ability, which grants a limited boost of speed allowing faster movement than the base sprint, has been removed from the core movement, but is accessible as an in-game perk.[2] Black Ops 7 features three main game modes: a single-player/co-op campaign, a multiplayer component and the cooperative round-based Zombies mode.[3] Playable with up to four players, the campaign sees players take control of a JSOC unit as they undertake a covert operation in the Mediterranean city of Avalon.[2] The campaign features 11 total missions;[5] completing all missions unlocks access to the "Endgame" mode, which puts up to 32 players in Avalon and tasks them with completing a series of objectives within a strict time limit.[6] Players can bring a custom loadout with them into Endgame,[7] and can equip their selected character with a major and minor ability to enhance their capabilities before starting each match, but if they die, they lose access to their gear; a skill tree is also available to progress in-match, which grants additional buffs, and can be retained between successful exfiltrations.[8] The multiplayer component puts two teams of six (6v6)—"JSOC" and "The Guild"—against each other across a wide selection of game modes, such as "Team Deathmatch", "Domination", "Hardpoint", and "Overload";[9] an exception to this is "Skirmish", an objective-based mode that allows for 20v20 combat on two dedicated maps.[10] Like previous Call of Duty titles, player performance is tracked with experience points (XP), which is earned by killing enemy players, completing objectives, or finishing challenges;[11] XP can also be earned in the campaign and Zombies modes.[10] As players level up, they gain access to various loadout items, including new weapons, pieces of equipment, and perks,[9] the latter of which are split into three "combat specialties"—"Enforcer", "Recon", and "Strategist"—that are activated when selecting three perks of the same specialty; new to Black Ops 7 are "hybrid combat specialties", which grant buffs when mixing perks from two different combat specialties.[12] Players can also apply additional abilities to their selection of lethal and tactical equipment, scorestreaks, and field upgrades via the "Overclock" upgrade system.[3] Once players reach level 55, they can choose to enter the "Prestige" ranking system, which resets their progress back to level 1 but grants a set of additional rewards; this process can be done up to ten times.[13] Fully leveled up weapons can also be Prestiged, which unlocks a series of cosmetic items, such as weapon camos and charms, but re-locks all available attachments. Activision statement on AI usage in Black Ops 7: "Like so many around the world, we use a variety of digital tools, including AI tools, to empower and support our teams to create the best gaming experiences possible for our players. Our creative process continues to be led by the talented individuals in our studios.”
