Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 launches officially on November 14, 2025, for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, and Xbox One. Players eager to test it first can join the open beta from October 5 to 8. Those who pre-order gain early access to a beta running from October 2 to 5.
Don’t forget: Activision has warned PC players that they will not be able to play during the beta or at launch without enabling TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot. Similar to its competitor Battlefield 6, Black Ops 7 requires TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot on PC to enforce robust anti-cheat protections against modified hardware and unauthorized software.
