With less than 24 hours until the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, the countdown is now actually running. Not only does this mean we’ll be playing a new entry in the FPS series, but I imagine some of us will also be taking a trip to New Zealand – more on that later.

This year’s Call of Duty will be a little different in terms of release, so there are a few things you should keep in mind. Essentially, there is no Early Access for the campaign, so you get everything Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has to offer in one nice drop.

Besides the lack of early access, there are a few other things you should consider. The Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 release time is specified to the minute on Battle.net and Steam, but elsewhere you’ll have to settle for a time span. Read on as we explain it all.
