Oh man, crazy how time flies, right? Like, Activision dropping Black Ops 7 feels like ages ago—or was it just June? Yeah, they flashed a quick teaser at that Xbox Showcase, which was a big deal, but then… crickets.
They mentioned more would come out this summer, whenever that means. Didn’t stick a date on it, though. Now we’re deep into July. Time slips by, huh? Anyway, boom! Activision just dropped the news that August is the magic month for the next peek at it.
Mark your calendars—or don’t, if you live in chaos like me—for gamescom’s Opening Night Live. Yep, August 19, a Tuesday. Random day of the week, right? It’ll be there alongside all the other shiny new games. And catch this—live at 11am PT, 2pm ET, and yeah, 7pm if you’re chillin’ in the UK. Convert those if you’re not in any of those places, ’cause time zones are wild.
What’s wild, too, is that CoD usually does its own solo dance for these reveals. Talk about confidence! I mean, does it even need to piggyback on gamescom? Maybe it’s just a vibe check, who knows.
What are they actually showing on August 19? Your guess is as good as mine. Could just be a tease-a-palooza with more juicy stuff later on. Speaking of which, they might give us more details just before the beta drops. Ah, to dream.
Now, here’s the kicker: Black Ops 7 dips back into that near-future world and throws co-op back into the campaign. Can you believe it? People are crossing fingers for some storyline threads tying back to Black Ops 6. Continuity is key, right? We’ll get hints on all that sooner or… maybe a little less soon.
And nah, no launch date yet. But stay tuned for November feels for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and the Series X/S gang. Keep your eyes peeled!
