Black Ops 6 Campaign Plot

The story of Black Ops 6’s campaign takes place in the early 1990s, following the events of Black Ops Cold War and directly linking to the memorable 1980s era from Black Ops 2. These events have left our hero, Frank Woods, in critical situations.

The campaign showcases the collapse of the Soviet Union after the Berlin Wall fell and the Cold War ended, leaving the United States as the sole remaining superpower. During this period, the Gulf War is a major global event.

After a tough decision and a botched operation, Woods and Marshall are suspended. Forced to take matters into their own hands, they must rely on each other to uncover the truth, while recruiting new characters to face former allies who have turned enemy.

Campaign Characters

• Frank Woods
• Troy Marshall
• Jane Harrow
• Felix Neumann
• Sevati Dumas
• Russell Adler

A Black Ops campaign wouldn’t be complete without its iconic characters. Black Ops 6 introduces new faces while bringing back other well-known characters from the series.

Campaign Locations and Battles

According to the BO6 reveal blog, “mission variety is key” to the campaign. The Raven Software team has designed each mission individually, offering alternate paths for more freedom and a diversity of locations.

In one mission presented at the BO6 Direct event, players infiltrate an old sewer system beneath a luxurious casino in Southern Europe. Another mission takes place in a large-scale battle within a desert palace in Iraq.

There are also events on American soil, like in the “Most Wanted” mission where you have to rescue Russell Adler from the CIA in Washington, D.C.

The Black Ops 6 campaign emphasizes various combat strategies and replayability for each mission, allowing players to tackle challenges in different ways. This includes interactions where operators engage in conversations, negotiations, and tactics to achieve different outcomes.

“Most Wanted” Mission

In the “Most Wanted” mission, you infiltrate a secret CIA base under Capitol Station in Washington with your teammates Troy Marshall, Felix Neumann, and Sevati Dumas. The objective is to rescue Russell Adler.

The developers detailed tasks for this mission: “You must attend a political fundraiser, obtain the retinal identification of a senator authorized to enter the Black Site, and extract Adler before anyone realizes what’s happening.”

As you can see in the mission preview, players will have the freedom to choose how to approach certain aspects.

When the mission takes an unexpected turn, you can rise to the challenge by infiltrating the Black Site with your guns blazing or opting for a stealthy approach.

The gameplay highlights the new omnidirectional movement system and the use of new gear such as the Disruptor and the Homing Knife.

Here’s what you can expect from the Disruptor: “A throwable tactical device that stuns enemies after charging to increase proximity radius.” The Homing Knife, on the other hand, is “a controllable lethal blade in flight, which explodes on contact or when triggered.”

Safehouse Feature

The Black Ops 6 campaign will include a Safehouse between each mission, inspired by KGB black sites from the 1950s and 1960s. It offers more opportunities for exploration and character development compared to the Berlin Safehouse in Black Ops Cold War.

In the BO6 Safehouse, players can practice shooting, uncover hidden secrets, and receive briefings from the irreverent Sergeant Frank Woods.

After exploring the mansion, players can access the evidence board to gain additional information and mission briefings. This includes the “Campaign Plan,” which offers deeper insights into missions and allows for analysis of collected evidence from past operations.
