The significant asset and info dumps will continue as we move closer to the October 21 release date. According to Activision, blogs on zombies, weapons, gear, and the progression system will be released.

Overall, the info dump appears to have gotten positive feedback. Popular COD content creator InkSlasher published a video reviewing the information.

The video above has 17,000 views in its first five hours live and hundreds of comments. Many of them are from COD fans who can’t wait to get their hands on the game.

As InkSlasher mentions in the video, the Theater Mode sounds interesting. I’m one of those guys who wished Call of Duty was playable in the third person.

Theater Mode allows you to watch the game from that camera and fly camera. I can’t wait to see the content produced from Theater Mode. If done correctly, users could literally shoot action scenes that look like movies, thanks to the sprawling environments and the visuals available on current-gen consoles.

Stay tuned for more information on the Call of Duty Black Ops 6 release, including post-release details and a full spoiler-free review of the campaign mode.
