Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 review (PS5)

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 on PS5 is an ambitious package that aims to deliver across multiple game modes – yet its reach sometimes exceeds its grasp. With a co-op campaign, a tension-filled extraction-style Endgame mode, fast-paced multiplayer, and a massive round-based Zombies map, the game tries to be everything … and the result is often uneven.

The core narrative still opens with a powerful sense of loss and disorientation before drawing players into the layered politics and shifting allegiances of the Commonwealth.

The Anniversary Edition adds new Creations that fold into this world with extra homes, themed gear, and a few compact activities, though the underlying story remains as it was in the original release.
