If you thought riot shields were annoying, just wait until an enemy uses you as one in Black Ops 6, thanks to the new body shield feature. Black Ops 6 overhauls movement in Campaign, Multiplayer, and Warzone with the introduction of omnimovement. For the first time in Call of Duty history, operators can sprint, slide, and dive in any direction at the same speed. In addition, you can dive and shoot simultaneously, opening new doors of movement possibility.

New weapons in Black Ops 6 means the start of a new mastery camo grind. There are 12 master camos, spanning across Multiplayer, Zombies, and Warzone. Everything starts with military camos, which are unlocked by completing headshot challenges. You get access to unique camos after you unlock all nine military weapons for a weapon. Unique camos have unlock criteria more tailored to the weapon’s play style.

Call of Duty: World at War was my first Call of Duty game, so I still remember the surprise when a friend showed me its secret zombie mode. I played so much Zombies across World at War and Black Ops that I actually got a bit burnt out by it. Most Call of Duty games since World at War have featured some sort of zombie mode, with some making a radical departure from the original formula. On the other hand, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’s Zombies mode feels familiar, but that’s not a bad thing.

Black Ops 6 is reverting the way that players unlock attachments in multiplayer to how it used to be, but they are keeping one type of universal unlock. Across the last few Call of Duty releases, there have been attempts to reinvent different features in multiplayer.

Let’s dive into details about all the Black Ops 6 perks revealed in the Call of Duty Next 2024, how they work, and what is the new perk category system implanted in this game.
