Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is a $70 premium title in the annual Call of Duty franchise. That fact is weighing heavily on the game’s player base after ads for in-game cosmetics began to appear in the loadout menu following the Season 4 update on May 28. The ads were removed in a subsequent update on June 2, with the official statement on the Call of Duty Updates social media accounts dubbing the ads a UI feature “test” that was pushed live “in error.”
