The Call of Duty community is abuzz after a bombshell teaser for Black Ops 6. The biggest surprise? The legendary soldier Frank Woods is back in action. This unexpected development has fans meticulously piecing together the game's potential timeline within the Black Ops universe, particularly considering Woods' ambiguous fate in Black Ops 2.
Black Ops 6 Makes History With Xbox Game Pass Debut And Returns To The 1990s Iraq War
Black Ops 6 marks a turning point for the franchise in several ways. First, it signifies a historic debut for the series on Xbox Game Pass at launch (excluding the Xbox Game Pass Core tier). This strategic move comes on the heels of Microsoft's monumental acquisition of Activision Blizzard in October 2023. The inclusion on Game Pass has the potential to significantly expand the player base, particularly on Xbox consoles.
Secondly, Black Ops 6 prepares to redeploy players to the brutal battlefields of the 1990s Iraq War. Hints suggest players might even encounter the notorious dictator, Saddam Hussein. Classic Black Ops elements – thrilling covert operations conducted deep behind enemy lines – are poised for a triumphant return. The teaser also subtly hints at possible anti-government themes that could be explored within the narrative.
The undisputed showstopper of the teaser is the return of Frank Woods. Woods' appearance in a wheelchair sparks curiosity about his physical state and the potential timeframe of Black Ops 6. Could the game be set sometime between the 1990s and the events of Black Ops 2 (set in 2025)? His presence has ignited a firestorm of fan theories.
