Black Ops 6 Campaign: The Story So Far, part 2

In Part 1 of The Story So Far, we covered the Black Ops story starting in the early 1960s through the late 1980s with major story beats and character profiles influenced by the narratives of Call of Duty®: Black Ops, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, and Call of Duty: Black Ops II.

It’s now time to set the stage for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 so you’re ready to dive right into the Campaign when the game launches on Friday, October 25.

Forced to go rogue. Hunted from within.

Enter a period of transition and upheaval in global politics, characterized by the end of the Cold War and the rise of the United States as a single superpower. The Gulf War dominated headlines and there was growing mistrust in government reflected across the music, television, and pop culture of the time.

While the Gulf War commands the global spotlight, a shadowy clandestine force has infiltrated the highest levels of the CIA, branding anyone who resists as traitors. Exiled from their agency and country that once hailed them as heroes, Black Ops veteran Frank Woods and his team find themselves hunted by the military machine that created them.

Join Woods and his protégé Troy Marshall, both now working for CIA handler Jane Harrow, a fearless and brilliant leader who helps manage their relationships in the agency. However, when an operation goes wrong, Woods and Marshall are suspended and forced to go rogue.

They must build their own team of rogue agents, including Felix Neumann, a technical genius, and Sevati Dumas, a mysterious assassin. The infamous Russell Adler also returns! His allegiances and motivations remain unclear, but the team needs all the help they can get.

In the thrilling action to come, there’s just one rule above every other: Don’t trust anyone.

Meet the cast of characters most important to the Black Ops 6 Campaign narrative. We covered Frank Woods, Russell Adler, and Helen Park in Part 1. Now we’re highlighting some new faces you’ll encounter in the Black Ops 6 Campaign:
