Wow, talk about radio silence from Activision on Black Ops 7, right? It’s like they’ve gone full stealth mode since that first glimpse at the Xbox Showcase back in June. Yeah, they threw out a trailer like tossing a bone to the hype-hungry crowd, and then—poof—nothing. Zilch.
Anyway—oh wait, speaking of silence—did you see that thing about more info coming “sometime over the summer”? No dates, just a vague promise. It’s already mid-July, and yet nada. But hey, plot twist! Turns out August is the magic month. Gamescom Opening Night Live on August 19, to be precise. Sounds fancy, huh?
Now, here’s where it gets a bit spicy. Usually, Call of Duty gets its own grand reveal, standing on its lonesome stage. Bam! Center spotlight. But nope, this time it’s part of the bigger show lineup. Guess someone decided to switch things up. Or maybe they’re just feeling social. I dunno.
What’s really going down on August 19? Beats me. Maybe we’ll get a sneak peek, or possibly a full-blown, let’s-reveal-everything session. And then there’s the whole co-op campaign revival, plus hints that they might connect the dots between Black Ops 6 and 7. That’s a maybe. Would be smart to spill those beans sooner, though, right?
One thing’s for sure: No release date yet. Everyone’s fingers are crossed for a November debut. We’re talking PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S—the whole shebang. At least that part feels kind of old-school predictable. So, here’s hoping August serves up something tasty.
