Update:Activisionhas officially confirmed thatCall of Duty: Black Ops 6is the title of this year’s entry in the series, confirming reports of the name that surfaced over the past 24 hours.
In a post on Twitter, Activision said that “a dark new chapter of the Black Ops franchise begins,” before referring to that chapter as “Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.” The accompanying image is the same three-headed dog that will be familiar to anyone keeping up with the game’s teasers (or who’s played Hades any time recently).
Today, May 23, the Reddit user below noticed their copy of USA Today had a brand new Call of Duty advert spread across several pages. The advert very helpfully displays the logo ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops 6,’ so there’s very little left to the imagination as to what the next entry in Activision’s franchise will be called.
On the second photo from the user, another Black Ops 6-related advert has the caption “The Truth Lies” - followed by a defaced Mount Rushmore. Just in case you had any doubt as to whether Treyarch’s long-running Black Ops series would once again be delving into conspiracy theories, put those doubts to rest.
“The Truth Lies” is also the teaser website’s address. If you head over toTheTruthLies.com, you’ll find a real-life video of apparent activists scaling Mount Rushmore, and then defacing the heads of the Presidents there, just like you can see in the USA Today advert just above.
