Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 is coming to PS4 and Xbox One

With the recent Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 teaser trailer, many believed the new game would skip the previous generation of consoles and simply launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles.

It now appears that the game will launch on older hardware - PlayStation 4 and Xbox One - after all, according to an industry insider.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will release later this year across several platforms

Rumours have been swirling about whether Activision would skip launching Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 on previous hardware due to the prevalence of newer consoles.

This seems to be far from the truth as confirmed by industry insider, Tom Henderson, in recent days. Henderson’s sources have confirmed that the new title will indeed be released for the previous generation.

Additionally, this news also comes with the factoid that Nintendo Switch will see a release, though this is likely to land on the Switch follow-up hardware, a first for the Call of Duty franchise.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will focus on the Gulf War which took place in the early 1990s in an attempt to liberate the people in the Gulf. While we did recently received a teaser trailer from Activision little is known on the game.

We can only speculate as to what we will see in the game when it releases. For example, we know that the bulk of the game will likely take place in the early 90s which means we won’t see some of the modern equipment and weapons we usually see in Modern Warfare.

We could also see a storyline based on the oil and gold that existed in the Middle East at the time and that became such a hot topic since the war ended.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is due for release later this year and will be the focus of a Microsoft showcase during Summer Games Fest.
