Call Of Duty: Back Ops Cold War Confirmed By Activision, Full Reveal Next Week
/ Carlos HernandezActivision has officially confirmed the various rumors that the next Call of Duty game will be Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. The full reveal of the game will be within Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s Warzone on August 26, 2020.
For now, all we get is this chilling teaser video titled ‘Know Your History’. Have a look below.
The teaser focuses on real-life KGB defector Yuri Bezmenov explaining the stages used in crippling a nation from within through disinformation. It then reveals Black Ops Cold War’s log, the full reveal date, and confirming that developers Treyarch and Raven are working on this title.
It’s hard to keep a secret nowadays in this industry as rumors back in June were swirling about this year’s call of duty game, saying that the next entry is a new entry in the Black Ops series, set in the cold war. Apparently, they were right.
The last Black Ops title was Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, the first title in the series that didn’t feature a single-player campaign mode. Instead, we were given the series first take on the battle royale format called Blackout. This time around, I doubt we will see a new version of Blackout as Call of Duty: Warzone is doing great on all platforms as a free-to-play title and it will be interesting on how they will match Warzone with Cold War.
Sony PlayStation announced that they are no longer pushing through with implementing the requirement of linking a PSN account to your Steam account in order to play 4-player co-op shooter Helldivers 2.

The Helldivers 2 controversy has gone from bad to worse within days as the 4-player co-op shooter can no longer be purchased on Steam in countries that do not have PlayStation Network support (PSN).
