Everything Coming to Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Multiplayer at Launch Treyarch reveals the full lineup of maps, game modes, and operators ahead of Black Ops 7’s November 14 release

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 officially launches on November 14, and Treyarch has outlined everything coming to the game’s multiplayer suite at release. Players can look forward to 18 maps, 12 distinct game modes, and 24 operators — along with the return of several Black Ops 2 classics.

This lineup represents one of the most feature-complete multiplayer launches in Call of Duty history, setting the tone for the upcoming Season 1 content drop.

🗺️ All Black Ops 7 Launch Maps

Black Ops 7 will launch with 18 multiplayer maps, including 16 traditional 6v6 arenas and 2 large-scale 20v20 battlegrounds for the new Skirmish mode.

Most maps are brand new, but Treyarch is also reviving some of the franchise’s most beloved classics from Black Ops 2.

Full Launch Map List:

Blackheart
Cortex
Exposure
Imprint
The Forge
Toshin
Colossus

Additionally, Nuketown 2025 — a near-future reimagining of the iconic map — will release pre–Season 1 as bonus content.

⚔️ Multiplayer Game Modes at Launch

At release, players will have access to 12 multiplayer game modes, covering both core and hardcore playlists. Classic Call of Duty experiences like Team Deathmatch, Domination, and Search and Destroy return alongside new additions that shake up the formula.

Full Mode Lineup:

Overload (New Competitive Mode)
Team Deathmatch
Domination
Search and Destroy
Kill Confirmed
Free-for-All

🧠 Spotlight: Overload Mode

Overload is an all-new 6v6 respawn mode built around high-intensity team play. Players race to grab an overload device, then protect the carrier as they escort it to a target zone. The result is a fast-paced tug-of-war that combines offense, defense, and coordination — and it’s already confirmed as the official competitive mode for the Call of Duty League.
