Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is a great multiplayer title that is held back by its complementary campaign mode and some dismaying choices made by Treyarch.
Compared to previous Call of Duty games, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 shows some sincerity, but unfortunately, players who have been burned before won't buy it again.
The game has merits in several aspects, especially in the Multiplayer and Zombies modes, which remain the highlights of this release.
Plenty of players feared Black Ops 7 might fall into the same expansion-like pattern that Modern Warfare 3 did after Modern Warfare 2, and for some that concern may feel justified once the campaign’s uneven execution becomes clear. The story has flashes of ambition, but its pacing and structure stop it from reaching the impact it aims for, leaving it feeling more serviceable than essential. Multiplayer steadies the ship with the sharpest and most rewarding action in the package, delivering the consistency and momentum the rest of the game struggles to match. Zombies offers a decent run with en...
Once again, as a package, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 provides plenty of throwaway fun and multilayer mayhem.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 arrives in 2025 with big ambitions and even bigger ideas. Set in 2035, the game tries to push the franchise into new territory with psychological horror elements, co-op gameplay, and a brand-new PvE mode. But while some parts of Black Ops 7 hit the mark perfectly, others miss so badly that they feel like they belong in a different game entirely. Our review breaks down what works, what doesn’t, and whether the game’s strong multiplayer and Zombies modes can make u...
It's that time of year again! I've been playing Call Of Duty: Black Ops 7 and after last years' Black Ops 6, I was very interested to see where this long running franchise would go. Does it reinvent itself to combat the recent competition? or Is it stuck in the trenches…
There's no denying that Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 boasts a massive amount of content, with its multiplayer being its strongest point. It shines with its fluid movement system, maps, and other quality-of-life improvements to both gameplay and matchmaking. Additionally, the Zombies mode returns to its round-based roots with the most ambitious map the mode has ever seen. However, this vast ambition comes at a cost. The Black Ops 7 campaign is undoubtedly a failed experiment. Its cooperative design, which forces players to always be online, and its mechanics...
It’s pretty staggering just how consistent the Call of Duty franchise has been over the last two decades. A new game every single year, bouncing back and forth between studios and sub-series, it’s remained at the top of the FPS genre for three console generations. But maybe that crown is slipping? Maybe we need to start thinking of them in terms of even and odd-numbered Star Trek movies? Black Ops 7 is not an even number…
Call of Duty has had a bit of an identity crisis these past few years, unsure about whether it wanted to be a live service or an annual release. This year’s
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 delivers solid multiplayer and a decent Zombies mode, but its campaign is a messy, Warzone-influenced experiment that fails to land. Despite some attempts to innovate, the game lacks meaningful change and feels almost identical to Black Ops 6. Overall, this year's entry feels creatively stagnant, despite its large amount of content, and I find it hard to recommend it for that reason.
