Call of Duty Black Ops 6 ‘Most Wanted’ campaign: What we know

Set in the '90s during the waning days of the Cold War, the Black Ops 6 campaign brings back familiar Call of Duty characters Frank Woods and Russell Adler, along with new faces Troy Marshall and Jane Harrow. True to the Black Ops legacy, the story delves into a "mind-bending conspiracy" that spans the globe.

The gameplay trailer reveals a mission in which players must infiltrate a fundraiser for real-life US Presidential candidate Bill Clinton. The objective is to covertly obtain a retinal scan from a US Senator, use it to access a hidden black site beneath the venue, and rescue Adler.

Interestingly, the mission offers multiple approaches, allowing players to either confront and restrain the senator directly or use blackmail material, such as an incriminating videotape, to achieve their goal.

The playthrough concludes with an infiltration of the black site, where players face off against armed soldiers from "Pantheon," a shadowy organisation central to Black Ops 6's narrative.

Upon rescuing Adler, he makes a nod to longtime Black Ops veteran Frank Woods, who also returns in Black Ops 6. The mission then ramps up into classic Call of Duty action, showcasing gadgets like a taser-like disruptor grenade and an explosive homing knife, before ending with a motorcycle chase through the nighttime streets.
