Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has got to be a groundbreaker, if not the best game in the series. Whatever the case will be, one thing’s for sure: players from both generations, last-gen and next-gen, will get to play the upcoming military shooter. It won’t be exclusive to a particular generation.
However, fans don’t really like the fact that they began a conversation about how the games in the series haven’t been next-gen exclusives since PS5 arrived. The next Black Ops game looks visually stunning, and a variety of features are likely to be introduced. PS4 players would be happy that they’d get to play the game anyway.
Will Any of the Games in the Series Become Next-Gen Exclusive?
It’s interesting that fans are still playing Call of Duty games on last-generation consoles. Many are waiting for the next PlayStation console and wondering about the fact that none of the games in the popular military shooter are next-gen exclusive.
A heated conversation on social media platform Reddit saw several fans join the debate. A user dubbed PabloVP129 shared an image from the game’s Wikipedia page showcasing names including Vanguard, Modern Warfare II, Cold War, and more.

PS5 substantially delivers a better experience than its predecessor. Faster loading times, 4K media support, haptic feedback, and more are a few reasons that should be more than enough for the players to upgrade to PS5. But why should they do that when they can play games like Black Ops 6 on PS4?
One estimate, according to a Reddit user dubbed Kalinine, presented nearly six years ago, provides a glimpse at millions of gamers playing Call of Duty games on PS4. And the figure might’ve increased.

Nonetheless, the fact that Activision is inclined to bring players to both consoles says a different story, and the numbers might still be good.
It’s already been tagged as a GOAT by the players but it remains to be seen if that’s the case.
