Scheduled for global release on Friday, November 13, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is the direct sequel to the original Black Ops, bringing signature combat to life through a conspiracy-laden Cold War experience developed by Treyarch and Raven Software.

Set in 1981 at the height of the Cold War, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War takes you to a world on the brink, where even the slightest spark could ignite a nuclear conflict. Joining forces with CIA operatives Alex Mason, Frank Woods, and Jason Hudson, a newly-formed team will carry out covert missions in a race against time to unravel a vast conspiracy.

Campaign: Dark Conspiracies, Deniable Operations, and Badass Weaponry

Picking up after the events of the original game, Black Ops Cold War sets you on the trail of a secret plot that has been in motion for decades.

Expect a single-player experience entrenched in the global tensions of the Cold War, armed with weaponry of the era — both state-of-the-art and prototypical. The race is on to discover the truth and battle through mindbending twists and turns that only Black Ops can deliver.

A Complete Connected Experience

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War supports cross-platform play for a truly connected experience to bring the entire community together. More information can be found within Activision’s FAQ.

Available now, the free-to-play blockbuster battle royale experience, Warzone will be extended and share content with Black Ops Cold War. Black Ops Cold War includes shared progression features with Warzone, adding inventory items that can be used in both titles. Plus, Warzone players will still have access to Modern Warfare® content they earned previously, like Operators and weapon blueprints. More information on Black Ops Cold War and Warzone will be announced at a later date.
