Nov 13, 2025Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is an absolute riot. It’s not afraid to rely on copious amounts of nostalgia, while also pushing the series forward in the most logical direction. Treyarch have looked back at Black Ops 2 and 3 for inspiration, and have delivered a fantastic Call of Duty, full to the brim of incredible content.

Nov 25, 2025Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is arguably the richest Call of Duty ever in terms of content, delivering an incredibly fun and robust multiplayer experience from day one. However, it falls short of excellence due to a mediocre, disjointed campaign and some noticeable technical compromises stemming from its cross-gen development. A great package, but held back by its flaws.

Nov 20, 2025CoD: Black Ops 7 is particularly enjoyable in multiplayer mode – the story campaign, on the other hand, lags behind.

Nov 18, 2025Treyarch and its development partners have done their best to cobble something together with Black Ops 7, but you just can't get around the rushed nature of this back-to-back Black Ops release. The game's campaign is almost an insult to Call of Duty single player offerings of the past, and while the core of multiplayer is solid, technical issues are dragging that experience down on Xbox at launch as well. Zombies is the highlight for me and I can see myself dipping back into this mode a fair bit - in fact, it's probably the only bit of Black Ops 7 that feels truly finished on day one. It's probably worth checking back on multiplayer down the line when the issues I've mentioned inevitably get ironed out, but campaign can't be saved - and overall, Black Ops 7 just feels undercooked after the care and attention that was put into last year's release.

Nov 21, 2025Black Ops 7 has the worst Call of Duty campaign of all time, but another solid multiplayer with great maps and an addictive Zombies mode means there's still plenty of fun to be had.

Nov 18, 2025Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is a contradictory title, caught between the need to evolve the series and the fear of leaving behind what defines it. Its gunplay is still superb and the Zombies mode shines brightly, but the campaign is a huge drag and Endgame fails to deliver the excitement and clarity needed to become a new benchmark. When everything clicks, you have fun. When it fails, it's all too noticeable. It's an enjoyable COD, yes, but far from the level expected of a numbered Black Ops. A hard blow to the series that may set the course from now on.

Nov 17, 2025Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 easily delivers one of the worst — if not the worst — campaigns in the franchise, recycling multiplayer maps and its gameplay structure to support a weak narrative and encounters that range from monotonous to downright embarrassing. In multiplayer and Zombies, the game tries to introduce something new, but the best parts are simply what already worked in the past and has been remastered, resulting in a completely forgettable experience and a blemish on the franchise’s image.
