It's bad news for anyone eager to dive into Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's campaign mode, as Activision has confirmed that for the first time in two years, players won't be offered early access to the single-player story ahead of the first-person shooter's multiplayer launch.
Looking at Call of Duty's recent releases, both Modern Warfare 2 and 3 (the 2022 and 2023 versions, respectively) offered fans who pre-ordered the games around a week of early access to their campaign modes. This was a move that went down well with many at the time, as it gave players the time to enjoy the story without feeling the need to rush into the multiplayer mode to make sure they didn't fall behind with their PvP skills. However, publisher Activision has now confirmed that this won't be happening this year for Black Ops 6.
