Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Blends Campaign and Multiplayer
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is set to introduce a groundbreaking change to the long-running series, according to well-known insider Tom Henderson. Sources close to the development suggest that for the first time ever, the game's single-player campaign and its multiplayer modes will be deeply intertwined, culminating in a massive 32-player online battle for the final mission.
This ambitious finale will take place on a large-scale map codenamed "Avalon." Initially, Avalon was reportedly designed as a battle royale map. However, it has since been repurposed to serve as the twelfth and concluding mission of the campaign. While players can still choose to tackle this mission alone or with a co-op squad of up to four, the full experience will involve 32 participants online.
A Hardcore Extraction Experience
Details about the mission are still scarce, but insiders describe it as "hardcore" and reminiscent of extraction-shooter games. Players will need to complete specific objectives and then successfully extract from the map. A significant challenge mentioned is the penalty for failure: if an entire squad is wiped out, characters will lose all accumulated progress from that mission, adding a layer of risk and intensity.
Beyond this unique final mission, Henderson's sources indicate that the merger of campaign and multiplayer is part of a larger, integrated progression system. This means everything players do in Black Ops 7, whether it's progressing through the story, engaging in classic multiplayer matches, or fighting off zombies, will contribute to overall character development. Weapon experience, operator leveling, and battle pass progression will all advance seamlessly, ensuring a smooth transition between different game modes.
Release Date and Official Reveal
While an official release date for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 has not yet been announced, reliable leaker billbil-kun suggests the game will launch on November 14. It is expected to be available on PC (via Steam, Microsoft Store, and Battle.net), Xbox, and PlayStation platforms. Additionally, the game is anticipated to be a day-one release on Xbox Game Pass for Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers.
More information about Black Ops 7's campaign, multiplayer, and Zombies mode is promised for August 19, with a full multiplayer reveal scheduled for Gamescom Opening Night Live. This new direction for the campaign, offering a blend of solo, co-op, and large-scale online play with shared progression, could significantly change how players experience Call of Duty, creating a more cohesive and rewarding journey across all its modes.
