In Multiplayer mode, Black Ops 6 introduces new features such as the Omnimovement system, the classic Call of Duty Prestige system, 16 new maps, customizable HUD options, impressive audio and graphics, and new weapons, equipment, and perks.

You can play it on PC through Battle.net or Steam, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and S, and Xbox One.
Call of Duty’s Storage Woes
The Call of Duty games have a reputation for needing a lot of storage space, especially on consoles like the PS5 and Xbox Series X, which have limited SSD space. People were shocked when they saw that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 might need 310 GB to install.
But, it turns out, that huge number includes not only Black Ops 6 but also other games like Modern Warfare II and III, Warzone, and all the extra content. However, you don’t have to install everything to play Black Ops 6. The game’s creators have clarified that you’ll only need to install what’s necessary for Black Ops 6 itself.
The actual size of Black Ops 6 alone isn’t known yet, but other recent Call of Duty games like Modern Warfare II and III need around 150 GB each if you don’t install everything. Black Ops 6 is also going to use cloud-based streaming for textures, which means it’ll always need to be online, but that might help keep the game’s size from getting too huge.
