⚔️ New Game Modes
Treyarch is introducing multiple new multiplayer modes designed to expand the variety of gameplay:
- Overload (6v6): A twist on capture the flag where teams carry a device deep into enemy territory to score.
- Skirmish (20v20): A large-scale mode featuring wingsuits, vehicles, and grappling hooks, offering a chaotic, Battlefield-style experience across massive maps.
Both modes will be available at launch, with two unique 20v20 maps designed specifically for Skirmish.
🗺️ Maps and Weapons at Launch
When Black Ops 7 drops, players can expect a robust multiplayer offering right out of the gate:
- 18 maps total at launch.
