Call of Duty: Black Ops 6: Details
The upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 video game is reportedly set in the 1990s during the Gulf War period. The first look video released by the company with the title “The Truth Lies” further strengthens these reports with cryptic dialogues such as “You wanted peace, so we hid the war” and more. This in-game setting also suits the story arc of the Call of Duty Black Ops series as the fifth instalment called “Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War” was set in the 1980s, in the midst of US-soviet tensions during the Cold War period.
