A video showcasing a tool allowing hackers to remove players from Black Ops 6 matches emerged online in late January. Activision responded, stating the footage was from the Black Ops 6 multiplayer beta and that the vulnerability was patched before the game's November release. Eles enfatizaram que este vídeo não reflete o estado atual do jogo e que investiga todos esses relatórios.
No entanto, os jogadores contestam a reivindicação da Activision, citando vídeos recentes demonstrando o uso contínuo da ferramenta. One such video shows the program functioning during a match on the Nuketown map, added to Black Ops 6 a week post-launch.
Despite this controversy, Black Ops 6 achieved top-selling game status in the US last year, according to Circana analysts. This continues a remarkable sixteen-year streak for the Call of Duty franchise as the leading game in the US market. Meanwhile, EA Sports College Football 25 , released in July, claimed the title of most played sports game in the United States.
Os gastos com jogadores dos EUA tiveram uma ligeira diminuição de 1,1% em relação ao ano anterior em 2024, mas a Circana atribui isso à redução da demanda de hardware, contrastando com um aumento de 2% nos gastos com complementos e um aumento de 6% nos gastos com serviços. Black Ops 6 and Warzone 2 are set to launch their second season on January 28th, featuring a ninja theme and a crossover with the "Terminator" universe.
