For a long period,Call of Dutygames developed by Treyarch and Infinity Ward ran on a separate storyline with minimal connection between the two. However, by giving a significant character a cameo appearance inBlack Ops Cold War,Treyarch has opened a box full of possibilities, which we could see further developing inBlack Ops 6.

With numerous games under the banner of the franchise,it’s understandable why Activision hasn’t tried to intermix the stories and timelines from different series. However, it’s fair to say that doing so will generate a lot of attention and throw the fanbase into a frenzy.

Slight spoilers forBlack Ops: Cold Warahead.

Black Ops 6 Could Spawn a Whole New Story

TheModern WarfareandBlack Opsseries havemostly remained independent storiesthat haven’t been mixed heavily so far. We have seen easter eggs or namedrops that suggest a legitimate connection between the two, but nothing substantial has ever come out.

The cameo of Imran Zakhaev inCold Wardoes change things a bit. The chairman of the Ultranationalists, who made a brief appearance inModern Warfare 3and served as the main antagonist inModern Warfare,cameoed as his younger self inCold War.

Of course, this has led many fans to believe we could finally see an intermingling of the two series. Furthermore, having him appear as an operator in the next game will really be the cherry on top.

It’s worth pointing out that integrating the two series won’t be an easy task. This is mainly due to the timeline difference, where there is a significant gap, so integrating can lead to a convoluted storyline.

However, instead of fully mixing the two series, developers can focus on a few characters that can appear in both series.

Black Ops 6 Is Going to Be Unlike Any Game Before

Whether or not we get to see an intermixing of storylines in the upcoming game, one thing is for sure:Black Ops 6is going to be groundbreaking, for better or for worse. New features are being introduced to the game, and some old fan favorites are also returning.

The highlight of the game is going to be the new Omnimovement system, which is going to redefine how players move in the game. Theatre mode is also returning, allowing players to create an in-game clip at a whim.

One thing that developers do need toimprove in comparison to past games is the ranked experience. Currently, rage quitting and AFKing are very common, and despite several changes to the ban system, the overall state of ranked queues remains unchanged.
