A mysterious website was launched that featured an old-school TV set, alluding to the era during which the game will be set.
Captioned, ‘The truth lies,’ the trailer didn’t give much away, instead showing vague clips of the usual kind of Call of Duty covert operations.
Hopefully, that’ll include some actual gameplay seeing as the initial teaser consisted of cinematic footage.

We can infer whenBlack Ops 6might be set though in the meantime. In the teaser,the date 11/91 can be seensuggesting that, as leakers suggested, the next instalment in the franchise will be set during the Gulf War.
A setting of 1991 would fit with the style of television I mentioned earlier.
It turns out though that we may not have to wait until 9 June to hear more. Xbox could be planning a major announcement for later today.
Take a look at theBlack Ops 6trailer below.

“Just announced,Call of Duty: Black Ops 6is coming to Game Pass on day one later this year,” it read.
You read that right. Following Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision, it looks as ifBlack Ops 6will be launching on Game Pass as a day one release.
This is great news for those of you with an active subscription, as every day one release gained is money saved on pricey pre-orders.
The elephant in the room is that, at this moment in time, neither Activision nor Microsoft has referenced this outside of the notification suggesting it may be coming later today with the notification accidentally dropped ahead of time.
