Black Ops 6 gameplay reveal breaks record for most-watched CoD trailer in less than 72 hours

The excitement surrounding Black Ops 6

The Call of Duty hype may have just reached an all-time high thanks to Treyarch’s return to the franchise with Black Ops 6.

In just under three days, the Black Ops 6 Gameplay Reveal Trailer has ballooned to a wild 49 million views, rocketing past the previous most-watched trailer, which had a high view count for an entirely different reason.

This time, however, the view count is primarily driven by enthusiasm and interest. While YouTube currently hides dislike statistics, the reaction to BO6’s debut has been overwhelmingly positive, with players delighted for the return of the Black Ops franchise.

Features of Black Ops 6

BO6 boasts a new “omnimovement” system in multiplayer that will allow players to sprint or dive in any direction, a shocking campaign with new and returning characters set in the early 1990s, and the long-awaited return of round-based Zombies gameplay.

Treyarch worked on Modern Warfare 3’s Zombies mode, MWZ, although it differed from the conventional, round-based, Easter egg-hunting mode that gamers have grown to expect and enjoy. Now, the studio has returned with two maps that will be included with the game at launch, as well as additional seasonal content that will be delivered gradually.

What is Next For Black Ops 6?

More details regarding BO6 will be announced on August 28 at Call of Duty Next, including information about the game’s playable beta as well as updates on multiplayer, Zombies, and BO6’s incorporation into the Warzone battle royale mode.

On October 25, Black Ops 6 will be available for the PlayStation 5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, and Game Pass.
