The latest Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 trailer offers an exciting and detailed look at the upcoming game, showcasing campaign moments, new multiplayer maps, zombies gameplay, and endgame content. Here’s a full breakdown of everything revealed.
Avalon and the New Endgame Mode
The trailer opens with scenes from the Avalon map, part of a new 32v32 endgame mode unlocked after completing the campaign. Early shots suggest that this mode may feature Guild AI or objective-based missions, though official details are still limited. This large-scale mode appears to replace the Outbreak mode from previous Black Ops Zombies titles.
Multiplayer Highlights
The trailer transitions into multiplayer gameplay, confirming the return of the 20v20 mode that wasn’t featured in the beta. Several new and returning maps are shown, including:
- New snow map
- Japanese-themed map (possibly inspired by Raid)
- Toshian and Homestead (both from the beta)
- Express and Hijacked (classic maps making a return)
The trailer confirms 18 signature maps available at launch — a substantial number compared to previous entries. Some legit sellers offer cheap bot lobby services to help players learn new maps.
Zombies Mode: New Features and Classic Characters
The Zombies segment introduces Janus Towers Plaza, a new spawn area, along with upgraded Wonder Weapons like the Wonderwaffe Turret and the Mara/Abomination heads. A newly designed zombie variant with horns also makes an appearance.
Notably, the trailer shows returning and reimagined characters such as Dr. Gray, Maya, Dempsey, Takeo, Richtofen, and Nikolai. Gameplay scenes reveal melee perks like the PhD Slam and locations such as Zia Cosmodrome, which includes a rocket launch site reminiscent of Ascension.
Explosions and meteor effects suggest large-scale environmental events or cinematic elements. Players are also seen using Pack-a-Punched weapons and vehicle combat, hinting at deeper Zombies integration with the campaign and open-world systems.
Co-op Campaign and Story Elements
For the first time, Black Ops 7 will feature co-op campaign missions. Scenes show players using grappling hooks, vehicle combat, and open-ended objectives within Avalon. Characters like Emma Kagan and Raul Menendez make appearances, with the story exploring psychological themes and hallucinations.
A cinematic showdown between David Mason and Menendez appears to take place within Mason’s mind, suggesting that Menendez may not exist physically but as a mental projection — continuing the psychological warfare themes central to the Black Ops storyline.
Launch Details and PC Optimization
At the end of the trailer, release information confirms that the game launches on November 13, 2025, at midnight local time for consoles. PC versions via Battle.net and Steam will unlock globally at 9:00 p.m. Pacific Time on November 13.
Preload begins on November 10 for all platforms. The download size is around 116 GB, smaller than expected.
The PC version includes over 800 customization options, along with full support for Windows-based handhelds like the ROG Ally X. The game is optimized for smaller screens, maintaining image quality and smooth performance.
System requirements list an RTX 4080 or RX 7900 for 4K Ultra settings, confirming high-end graphical support.
The Black Ops 7 trailer showcases Treyarch’s most ambitious entry yet, merging large-scale multiplayer battles, deep Zombies gameplay, and a cinematic campaign with psychological storytelling. With new maps, classic returns, optimized PC performance, and extensive customization, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 promises to deliver one of the most comprehensive experiences in the franchise’s history.
