Black Ops 6 is expected to be the savior for the Call of Duty video game series after Modern Warfare 3, which was more or less a disaster. The Black Ops subseries is associated with dark, gritty operators and the entire timeline spans seven titles.
However, if you are looking forward to playing Black Ops 6, especially the campaign, you need to be up to speed with all that’s happened. So, here is everything one would be expected to know before booting up the Black Ops 6 campaign.

The tale began in 1942 when World War 2 was in full flow. In Call of Duty World At War, there is a section where you play as Private Dimitri Petrenko of the Ussr Armed Forces. Here you also rendezvous with Sergeant Viktor Reznov, a name you should remember for future reference.

Though Vladimir Makarov is better off when left to his own devices in Call of Duty, there is someone who would be the perfect partner for him to work with. However, that partner appears in a different run of games, and may not be a person at all.
I am talking about the major antagonist in Black Ops Cold War, Perseus. The current status of both remains active, though I won’t use dead or alive, as there’s still confusion about whether Perseus is an individual or simply a spy network.
Makarov and Perseus Want to Blame America
Modern Warfare and Black Ops are two Call of Duty franchises that share Easter Eggs, suggesting there is a link to both. But, the similarities are more than meets the eye.
We usually see the US as something villains want to destroy, and when it comes to these games, Vladimir Makarov...

Call of Duty can be more fun with crossovers in its single-player campaigns. Captain John Price is tasked with infiltrating a facility in Khe Sahn said to be hiding a high-value target. The operation is oversaw by Kate Laswell and will report directly to Russell Adler.
That’s one imaginary story, but who knows something like that may come to fruition? After all, both the acclaimed franchises, Modern Warfare and Black Ops, hold some of the interesting story arcs in the game. And there are Easter eggs that may hint of a link between the two.

Imran Zakhaev is among the most interesting Call of Duty villains to have appeared throughout the series. Certainly, Captain Price blowing his head off in Pripyat has become an iconic moment in the game.

Call of Duty had some rough and tough characters appearing in its video games and Black Ops features the most of them. From Frank Woods to Viktor Reznov, these hard-headed but charismatic characters are sure to blow anyone’s mind when they get along with the story.
But there are couple of them who deserves the title of ‘Master of Puppets’ as they possess a personality simply no one can match. Jason Hudson, who first appeared in the original Black Ops, and Russell Adler, whom we came to know in Cold War.
Mr. Shades Certainly had a Way With Words in Call of Duty Alex Mason used to address Hudson as Ice Cube. Credits: MKIceAndFire on YouTube

Black Ops 6 is set to be released later this year and leaks have already made its way to the internet. The gaming industry is not safe from hackers lurking around the shadows of highly anticipated projects in active development and no other previous security breaches are of this magnitude.
The gaming community was surprised to see fully rendered cutscenes for this year’s installment get leaked this early. It is an unfortunate event that the game developers have yet to overcome, and it is only a matter of time before something massive will be shared without the game developers’ consent.

Black Ops 6 is scheduled to be released later this year and the gaming community is beyond excited to see what Raven Software and Treyarch have been working on for the past few years. October is still a few months away and there is more than enough time for the developers to share one more trailer.
The previous trailers and promotional material were enough to excite the fans but one voice actor who is privy to confidential information revealed another trailer is imminent. Considering the timeframe, it is only appropriate for the developers to drop one last major trailer.
Another Black Ops 6 Trailer Is Coming and Is Described to Blow the Minds of Fans

Black Ops 6 is set to be released later this year and the gaming community is excited to see Raven Software and Treyarch working together. The story of the previous installments intrigued the fans to see this project carry on and witness the consequences of prior mistakes.
Fans were skeptical about whether this upcoming title was canon to what was established in the original Black Ops timeline. It is safe to assume that it is since certain character deaths will be heavily referenced and the developers confirmed that Frank Woods will be experiencing survivor’s guilt.

Raven Software and Treyarch are using the success of older titles and piggybacking on them for future projects. Early leaks suggest that Raul Menendez will make a comeback in Black Ops 6 and not everyone was a fan of the decision to bring back older characters; however,...

Things are going great between singer Jennifer Hudson and rapper Lonnie Rashid Lynn aka Common. Hudson and Common had some fun conversation about their relationship when he appeared on the latter’s show, The Jennifer Hudson Show, in January. Before the ‘wonderful’ relationship with Common, Hudson was in a decade-long relationship with retired WWE wrestler David Otunga.

With the upcoming Call of Duty video game, players will finally get to see the inclusion of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein and maybe the militant leader Osama Bin Laden. That’s one of the things for fans to get excited for; the other remains the return of iconic character Viktor Reznov, the hallucinatory friend of Alex Mason from the Black Ops series.
But it won’t be fun until he is again voiced by the veteran industry actor, Gary Oldman. The Darkest Hour actor voiced the character in the first two Black Ops games, but Piotr Michael, who also voiced Jason Hudson in Cold War, took the mantle in 2018 for Black Ops 4.
Fans Already Know Who The Best Voice Actor in Call of Duty is Reznov and Petrenko making their way through the city of Stalingrad.

Gaming franchises have rough phases to deal with, it’s common. Call of Duty happens to be among them now, and the so-called Black Ops Gulf War should be its savior.
After the poor reception of Modern Warfare 3, fans are hoping they don’t have to face the same scenario as with the latest installment. While open combat missions in the game caught the players off guard, the backlash from the community caught developers off guard.
Black Ops Gulf War May Have What it Takes to be Triumphant
Netizens have been hearing the rumors about the next game in the franchise, and it too is likely to embrace the open world like Modern Warfare 3. It may not only sound like music to the fans’ ears but also stir up a hornet’s nest.

Call of Duty fans are only hours away from getting their hands on the latest installment of the franchise, the spy-themed Black Ops: Cold War, which sees the heroes from the original Black Ops game on the tail of a Russian spy known as Perseus. Series “heroes” Frank Woods, Jason Hudson, and Alex Mason will be dabbling in a bit of espionage on the orders of President Ronald Reagan. It’s clear Treyarch and Raven Software are aiming for a pure ’80s action flick feel with their latest.
Players anxious to jump in and experience everything Cold War has to offer will be able to do so very soon. If you’re in the US, you’ll only have to wait until 12 am Et on Nov. 13 or 9 pm Pt on Nov. 12 to play on Xbox Series X, PS5, PC, Xbox One, and PS4, according to Call of Duty watchdog site Charlie Intel.

This year’s Call of Duty could be making a return trip to the Cold War period, it seems.
An extensive leak appearing yesterday over on Reddit by user SunnyMatrix claims that information was provided to them by a “source that is involved in primarily screenwriting for television and film,” though notes that the individual is often recruited by video game publishers in the capacity of a consultant to review story drafts and scripts. There is, of course, no way to verify whether those assertions are true, though the thread in question has already gained a considerable amount of attention regardless.
As was the case with last year’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, SunnyMatrix’s source claims that 2020’s installment will deliver another so-called soft reboot, this time in the form of Treyarch’s Black Ops subseries. The studio is already known to be leading development this time around,...
