The whole world is now anticipating the all-new Call of Duty: Black Ops: Gulf War. However, there has been no confirmation of this title so far, but certain rumors from insiders claim it to be the next big thing from Activision. Even Treyarch has shifted its focus to this title from Modern Warfare Zombies to make this title a great success.
There are a lot of claims, based on many leaks, that this game is going to be a lot different from previous Call of Duty titles in terms of some new features. But is that really the case? Because a certain leak is purely contradictory to the other leaks. It is speculated that the Gulf War is going to be the same as the Cold War.
Is Call of Duty: Black Ops Gulf War Going to Be a “Copy” of Cold War?
In a recent leak from a credible insider, we can see that the Exfil feature might be coming back to the Gulf War. This is a utility feature that has already been seen in previous COD titles like Modern Warfare III, Vanguard, Cold War, and many more.
Ruh roh. Although exfils themselves aren't that bad and can be done well, this tells me that Gulf War is probably gonna be just a copy of Cold War mechanics, which is one of the main things I did not want to see

Now, as this feature is coming to Black Ops Gulf War as well, many fans are claiming this title to be “just a copy of Cold War” mechanics. However, we have already gotten the hint that fans will get to see overhauled mechanics in this upcoming Call of Duty title.
While in zombie mode, with the Exfil feature, players can escape to safety and end the match without quitting the game or dying. In Cold War, except for Outbreak, the Exfil feature became available in round 10.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Gulf War Might Be Different From Its Predecessors
Despite the already-mentioned claims, according to certain rumors and leaks, Gulf War will have brand new mechanics, unlike previous Modern Warfare titles.
The speculations are going so high that insiders are claiming that the upcoming COD title will have the best movement mechanics of the franchise.
Since everyone is talking about rebirth no one will see this, gulf war has the best movement of any cod to date 🫣

Apart from movement mechanics, Gulf War will also have a unique feature that Call of Duty fans are yet to witness. This game will allow players an additional tertiary weapon slot that can be used to holster the knife or other melee weapon.
Loadouts now come with a 3rd weapon slot being a knife in Black Ops Gulf War. I’m not sure if it’s changeable as all of the presets I have found use the knife as the tertiary weapon, but this is the first CoD to allow this I believe.#CoD2024 #BlackOpsGulfWar #BOGW pic.twitter.com/HHHB2xHVRc

Now, the fun fact is that this slot will indirectly add value to the movement mechanics. Because the character will gain additional movement speed while emptying their hands.
So, that’s all from our side. Amongst a flurry of rumors, there are a lot of judgments about Call of Duty: Black Ops: Gulf War. What’s your take on it?
Do you really think this game is going to be a copy of the previous Call of Duty title, or is it going to be completely different?
