Black Ops 6, the newest army first-person shooter to roll alongside the Name of Responsibility conveyor belt, has graced us with one other teaser trailer. Like the primary teaser which dropped final week, the video is comprised principally of live-action footage. However there does seem like a minimum of one, tiny, snippet of gameplay footage in there, and it means that we’re in for a reasonably bizarre time.
Titled “Open Your Eyes”, the trailer is usually fashioned from VHS archive clips of varied early nineties’ artifacts, together with Invoice Clinton taking part in the saxophone, and an advert for the ‘Chia Pet’ terracotta collectible figurines (to not be confused with Tchia, the beautiful Breath of the Wild-lite online game that launched a few years again), all whereas a distorted male voice talks to the viewer straight. It is clearly going for an analogue horror vibe, with wilfully grainy footage and speedy cuts to extra psychedelic imagery.
It is in a single such lower that we see what seems to be like correct gameplay footage. It seems on the 1:09 mark within the video, though you may nonetheless should be fast on the left mouse button to pause the video on the proper second. In the event you succeed, you may see what seems to be a pinkish model wrestling with the participant, considered from a primary individual perspective. The footage is so quick and grainy it is onerous to be 100% sure, however the way in which the digicam strikes seems to be very video-gamey.
There’s one other clip, simply earlier than this, of real-life mannequins being burned, so collectively they recommend inanimate, life-size dolls are going to be one thing of a theme. The unique Black Ops, which was set within the sixties, performed closely on concepts of psychological conditioning and brainwashing, impressed by real-life occasions just like the CIA’s MKUltra program. Clips like this, mixed with the final tone of the trailer, recommend Treyarch is likely to be returning to Black Ops’ roots.
This is not the one suggestive snippet of Black Ops 6 to look on-line not too long ago. YouTuber Noah J obtained a package deal from Treyarch which included an extended model of this trailer, which proper on the finish confirmed footage of what seems to be a Zombies mode. The clip, which once more was lower than a second lengthy, confirmed a personality sliding alongside the bottom whereas a zombie-like monster seems in body from the appropriate.

Frankly, it might be extra stunning if Black Ops 6 did not have zombies. It was comfortably the most effective factor in regards to the deeply mediocre Fashionable Warfare 3, which was rushed out proper after Activision mentioned they’d be taking extra time with growing Name of Responsibility video games. That mentioned, Black Ops 6 has been within the pipeline for 4 years, with Black Ops: Chilly Warfare launching again in 2020. So possibly, simply possibly, it will be higher than the newer output from Activision’s cluster of Name of Responsibility studios. Both manner, we’ll discover out extra at Microsoft’s Xbox Showcase on June 9.
