We finally received a look at Call of Duty: Black Ops 7’s multiplayer gameplay, and it packs some interesting new additions (like wall jumps). While even more details are coming at Call of Duty NEXT, Treyarch and Raven Software outlined everything to expect in the upcoming open beta.
It will include six maps – Blackheart, Cortex, Exposure, Imprint, The Forge and Toshin – out of the 18 available at launch. Classic modes like Domination, Hardpoint, Team Deathmatch and Kill Confirmed are also playable alongside the Training Course. However, there’s also the newest addition to the series: Overload.
Pitting two teams of six against each other (with respawns), it sees players depositing an Overload Device and dropping it in one of two zones. They have to capture it before the enemy team, though, but even if the latter deposits, you can disrupt the zone in question to earn a point and turn things around.
The open beta is available from October 5th to October 8th, but pre-orders can start playing early on October 2nd. Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 launches on November 14th for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, and PC. It’s also available on day one for Game Pass.
