Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Editions

A breakdown of the different editions of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, including pre-order incentives, Game Pass details, and cross-gen options for consoles

The BlackCell Battle Pass Bundle included in the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Vault Edition is not for use in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III or Call of Duty: Warzone. It will be granted in Black Ops 6 when Season 1 begins.

Developed by Treyarch and Raven Software, Call of Duty®: Black Ops 6 is a spy action thriller set in the early 1990s, a period of transition and upheaval in global politics, characterized by the end of the Cold War and the rise of the United States as a single superpower. With a mind-bending narrative, and unbound by the rules of engagement, this is signature Black Ops across a cinematic single-player Campaign, a best-in-class Multiplayer experience, and with the epic return of Round-Based Zombies.

Launching worldwide on October 25, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is available for pre-order now on Xbox (Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One), PlayStation (PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4), and PC through Microsoft Store, Battle.net, and Steam, and coming to Game Pass on Xbox consoles and PC (Microsoft Store only) at launch. Game Pass Ultimate and Game Pass Console players can download and pre-install COD HQ and Call of Duty®: Warzone™.

Upgrade to the Vault Edition

The Vault Edition upgrade will be available as a separate purchase for $30 (Suggested Retail Price) or your regional equivalent.

Please note: An active Game Pass subscription (Game Pass Ultimate, Game Pass PC, or Game Pass Console with Game Pass Core) is still required to access the base game.

Is an internet connection required to play Call of Duty: Black Ops 6?

To deliver the highest-quality visuals while also reducing the game’s overall storage space on your hard drive, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will use texture streaming across all game modes. This means you’ll need a continuous internet connection to play any game mode, including Campaign. If you’re on a console, Campaign can be played without a premium subscription service such as Game Pass Core or PlayStation Plus.

Does Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 support split-screen gameplay?

Split-screen gameplay (two players sharing a screen) for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will be available on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. To ensure performance integrity, split-screen gameplay will not be supported on Xbox One or PlayStation 4.

Will there be Early Access to the Campaign?

The team is fully focused on October 25th. We are excited about all the game has to offer across Campaign, Multiplayer and Zombies. This year, we made the decision to ensure the community gets to dig in to any modes that they want at the same time, so we are back to one massive global launch moment October 25th. As such, there is no Early Access beat this year for Black Ops 6, just the countdown to launch.
