One of the essential elements in Call of Duty games has always been the campaign missions that most players tend to enjoy first before delving into multiplayer mode. However, the stories are short, taking less than 10 hours to complete, but last year’s MW3 game was a disaster in terms of the game’s lifespan.
In a recent report from Charlie Intel, Treyarch confirmed that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will feature a longer story mode this year, « longer than Black Ops Cold War. » However, Black Ops Cold War was one of the shortest story modes in Call of Duty history, ranking alongside Vanguard and MW3 at the bottom of the list.
The Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 story mode will take about six to nine hours, described by Treyarch’s production director, Joel Miller, as a « kind of classic Call of Duty story mode length. » However, the assistant creative director at Raven Software, John Zoc, steals the spotlight with his statement that Black Ops 6 will be longer than Cold War, even if you try to finish it in record speed run time.
Since MW2, we have not had a long Call of Duty story mode that takes nine hours to complete. Not to mention that the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 story mode has replayability, allowing players to complete missions in different ways.
