Since hitting the shelves last month,Call of Duty: Black Ops 6has been unstoppable, gaining critical acclaim as well as attracting a historic number of players. In an earlier announcement, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella labeledBlack Ops 6as"the biggest"CODrelease in history, while confirming that the Xbox Game Pass day-one title had also set new records for the gaming subscription service. Now, the devs have revealed the various fronts on which the newly released FPS has outshined previous entries.

Treyarch Celebrates Black Ops 6’s Monumental Success with In-Game Rewards
To mark the special occasion,Treyarch announced player rewards, such as in-game modes and boosts, being added toCall of Duty: Black Ops 6this week. The originalBlack Opsstudio stated that game modes, including Prop Hunt, Stakeout 24/7, and Hardcore Stakeout 24/7, are rolling out on Wednesday, November 27. In addition to that, the 2XP period, which usually starts from the weekend, has been extended and is scheduled to kick off on the same day as the modes become available. In the comments, many players thanked the devs for the in-game goodies, especially the forthcoming game modes. Noticeably, some of them also used this opportunity to bring more attention to the game’s cheating problem, which infamously started as soon asBlack Ops 6’s beta version hit the stores.
As is commonly the issue with games having online modes, there is a considerable population of cheaters inCall of Dutygames spoiling others' experience. In order to combat the problem, this year, Activision’sRicochet anti-cheat system is also leveraging the power of AIto filter out those who play foul. Given that there are new anti-cheat measures in place,Call of Dutyplayers would hope that their inclusion eradicates this age-old pain point for the franchise. However, it will take some time to establish if the new techniques are significantly effective against cheaters.
