Developers of Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 have accidentally tipped their hand about an imminent reveal of Endgame, one of the new title’s most intriguing features. The slip came from an Activision post that went live too early and was spotted by insider CharlieIntel. The post was quickly removed, but screenshots confirmed an official deep dive set for November 10—just days before the game’s global launch.
Black Ops 7 arrives next week as a direct continuation of Black Ops 6. Even with Battlefield 6 in the mix and a weary audience after years of annual releases, this installment is positioning itself to be among 2025’s most popular shooters. Its availability via Xbox Game Pass should also pull in a wider crowd, and the timing alone suggests a confident push right up to launch.
Endgame is a cooperative PvE mode for 32 players, built as an open world with missions, bosses, loot, and a high-stakes extraction system: fail to leave the map in time and you lose everything you’ve gathered. Treyarch and Raven Software plan to update the mode regularly and introduce new elements.
According to the leak, players will need to complete the first 11 campaign missions to unlock Endgame. The post also outlines the narrative setup: JSOC forces will comb the vast Avalon map and dismantle the remnants of the Guild’s infrastructure while confronting infection zones through which a mysterious toxin spreads.
JSOC, known from Black Ops 2 and Cold War, returns here alongside the Guild, a criminal organization operating in the fictional Mediterranean Avalon. Confirmation of these details is slated for the official presentation, which will include a Dev Talk and a developer video—likely the moment that ties the mode more tightly to the broader campaign.
