We’re just a couple of days away from the launch ofCall of Duty: Black Ops 6.
It’s always a nervy time.

To say it was a disappointment is an understatement.
Yes, it was no secret thatModern Warfare IIIbegan life as an expansion toModern Warfare II, but when the decision was made to make it a standalone release, we expected that it might therefore actually feel like one.
With all of that in mind, hopefully,Black Ops 6is the game that we’ve all been waiting for.
It won’t be too long until we find out but in the meantime, prospective players are already up-in-arms over one controversial mechanic.

Take a look atCall of Duty: Black Ops 6in action below.
InBlack Ops 6, players will be able to make use of spatial audio - but there is a catch.
It’s somewhat of a paid add-on with many fans of the franchise displeased with this glaringly obvious pay-to-win mechanic.

AllBlack Ops 6players will have access to a ‘universal’ profile when it comes to spatial audio.
This essentially means that its settings are pre-determined and locked.
What the paid add-on offers is a personalised profile. This was explained over on the Call of Duty blog.

“Included as part of the game’s Enhanced Headphone Mode, is a Universal HRTF profile which has been specifically created for the Call of Duty soundscape,” apostread.
Even still, paying for the personalised profile is clearly going to provide an advantage, but perhaps not as much of an advantage as many originally thought.
Will this be the game’s last controversy? I’d be surprised.
