In a year that’s felt a little off since the start, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s ongoing absence from the limelight has freaked us out the most. Activision has always announced its annual first-person shooters in May like clockwork, but we’re almost into September and we’ve barely heard a peep from Treyarch about its new title.
That will change next week when its wordy sequel will be revealed in Battle Royale mode Warzone. And here’s your very first glimpse at the key art from the release, which is surprisingly colourful for a series that’s notoriously dark and dingy. It’s a well-constructed image, with propaganda making up both sides of the Soviet/American soldier in the centre.
We assume this one will come to the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, but all bets are off on this coronavirus impacted planet. All will be revealed on 26th August.

Use of propaganda’s fitting given it’s Call of Duty 😛
But there where no wars, in the cold war,or are we having an arms race,kinda game.It just seems like COD used this time period, because it had war in its name.
@rachetmarvel Korea, Vietnam, Bay of Pigs etc. The Cold War had plenty conflicts, just proxy ones like exactly what we’re seeing now.
@nessisonett well, I guess I am wrong,my lack of knowledge in history,has certainly showed.
@rachetmarvel Nah, ‘Cold’ wars really should just refer to inactive conflicts without military action so it is a silly term I guess!
Looks kinda...I dunno...funky? Honestly I like MW so much (and not just the BR part, but gunfight mostly) that I don't want the community to start migrating out of it. Usually I get my fill of a COD game after a few months, but MW really hit the nail on the head!

Am I the only one who really hates this title?
I feel like they're just becoming less and less creative with naming these games one after another. I would've taken Black Ops V better than this unless they were gonna write it "BO-IIIII" which is... quite possible given their history of naming the series...
But I'm personally really done with COD. It just doesn't interest me anymore.
Is that the Rock on the left?
@Sam-Bridges Well... if it doesn't interest you anymore, why did you complained about the name of the game?
Why does this cover remind me of Roy Chubby Brown?!
@StormNuken Because I honestly want it to interest me. I don't hate games. I really enjoyed the Moder Warfare reboot they did and I played a lot of the multiplayer (until they decided that 100GB wasn't enough for one game and kept increasing the size and I just had to let it go)
My opinion on this one isn't 100% solid either. Hell, we haven't seen anything yet! would be stupid to form an opinion right now. I might like this when I see/play the actual game. Just not a fan of the name and the yearly routine of releasing the games.
