Steam reviews

What players say

Mixed reception: many players find the campaign and zombies decent, but they are angry about the locked Armory, the forced launcher ties and matchmaking.

Many players say the campaign is decent, with a steadily escalating story and distinct characters, and that zombies is the part worth playing, with liked maps, boss fights and Easter eggs. Multiplayer draws mixed views: some enjoy the quick omni-movement and satisfying gunplay, while many complain about hackers, aim assist, skill-based matchmaking and spawns that drop them into enemies. Many players are angry that the Armory stopped unlocking after level 24, that popular playlists such as Nuketown 24/7 were removed and that camo progress now runs through Warzone, which they link to Black Ops 7's release. Recent reviews are harsher than the helpful ones from 2025, and several note that the game now runs separately from the CoD HQ launcher, which some welcome. Steam's totals are mixed.

Praised

  • Campaign story and characters

    Players find the campaign solid and better than recent entries, with a steadily escalating story and distinct characters, though the villain is seen as weak.

    Many players
  • Zombies mode and maps

    Players call zombies the best part, praising the maps, boss fights, Easter eggs and the Pack-a-Punch and perk upgrade systems.

    Many players
  • Movement and gunplay

    Players enjoy the quick omni-movement and satisfying gunplay, which keep multiplayer matches fun with friends.

    Some players

Criticised

  • Locked Armory progression

    Players say the Armory no longer unlocks past level 24, leaving weapons and camos locked and pushing them toward Warzone or Black Ops 7.

    Many players
  • Multiplayer hackers and matchmaking

    Players report cheaters, aim assist and skill-based matchmaking that makes multiplayer frustrating, especially in ranked play.

    Many players
  • Technical problems and large download

    Players report crashes, lag, frame drops, server disconnects and a download of around 250 GB that is tied to the online-only setup.

    Many players
  • Removed popular playlists

    Players are upset that Nuketown 24/7 and other favourite playlists were removed after Black Ops 7 launched.

    Some players
Who it suits
Suits players who mainly want zombies or the campaign, and who can wait for a sale.
Who should skip it
Should be skipped by players who mainly want competitive multiplayer or depend on Armory progression, which is currently blocked for many.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with over 100 hours mostly praise the multiplayer and grinding, while short-playtime reviewers focus on the locked Armory and launcher problems.
