Man, I don’t know about you, but I’ve been waiting forever for more dirt on Black Ops 7. Activision’s tight-lipped approach since they dropped that teaser back in June, at that Xbox Showcase, has got me scratching my head. Like, why leave us hanging like this?
Yeah, they mumbled something about more info coming “this summer.” A proper date? Nope. Nada. So, here we are, stuck in mid-July, still twiddling our thumbs. But, hey, Activision finally pipes up. They decide August’s the magic month to spill the beans. About time, right?
Circle August 19, folks. That’s when gamescom’s Opening Night Live rolls around. The lineup includes Black Ops 7, but who knows what they’ll actually show us? It’s a Tuesday. Fun fact, the show goes live at 11am PT, 2pm ET, 7pm UK—marking your calendar yet?
What’s odd is how Call of Duty drops usually have their own flashy shindigs, not just a spot in a lineup. So maybe this means something big, or maybe I’m overthinking it. Nah, scratch that, overthinking’s half the fun!
Honestly, what they’ll reveal? Total mystery. Fingers crossed for a deep dive later in August or even into September. It’s almost like I’m betting on a late summer surprise party. All this about returning to the near-future and co-op for the campaign—my curiosity is through the roof. And continuity with Black Ops 6? Fans are itching for it, though… who isn’t?
One thing we’re still in the dark about is when it actually drops. November’s the smart guess, when gaming chaos typically ensues. But I’ll spit my coffee if they choose a crazy date. Platforms? Oh, you’ve got PC, PS4, PS5… you name it. It’s like Oprah giving away consoles—everybody gets one!
So, yeah, my mind’s buzzing. Now, please, Activision, no more playing coy!
