MULTIPLAYER GAMEPLAY
Call of Duty Next this year will, for 100% certainty, feature a heavy hands-on gameplay showcase for the Black Ops 6 Multiplayer. This will have a major showcase of what the multiplayer experience will entail, including the first look at gameplay through the perspective of non-devs, the maps, weapons, killstreaks, and more!

During this section of the event, it’s worth noting that we will most likely get a beta date reveal. There were also rumors of a potential alpha coming to Black Ops 6 that, if true, would release shortly after the event ends similar to the Black Ops Cold War Alpha.
