“GG to all who guessed right,” Xboxtweetedearlier today. “Don’t miss the Xbox Games Showcase followed by Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct on Sunday, June 9.” The Xbox Games Showcase is currently set to begin at 10 am PT, 1 pm ET, and 6 pm BST, streaming from the company’sYouTubechannels and elsewhere.
The Call of Duty social media accounts shed more light on what to expect,teasingthat the Black Ops 6 Direct will give us a “first in-depth look at all-new gameplay and product announcements.”
Last year’s Starfield Direct ran for about 40 minutes, zooming in and sweeping through all of the spacefaring epic’s features - combat, skills, leveling up, ship building, companions, space travel, and much more were shown off - and we can expect a similar blow out for the upcomingBlack Ops 6too, though there’s no word on how long the Direct will run for.
Details are relatively sparse for the sixth Blops, but reports from last week claimed thatthis year’s Call of Duty would launch into Xbox Game Pass on day one, after Microsoft formally bought series ownerActivision Blizzardfor $69 billion. The company pledged thatCall of Duty would still come to PlayStation consolesfor at least the next decade, so players worried about exclusivity shouldn’t be scared off by the Xbox branding.
