Development on Black Ops Cold War began as a collaboration between Raven and <a href="/wiki/Sledgehammer_Games" title="Sledgehammer Games">Sledgehammer Games</a>, which was not intended to be an entry in the Black Ops sub-series, but due to disagreements between the two studios, Activision assigned Treyarch to lead the production of the title in May 2019.

Reviewers responded mostly positively to the single-player campaign and Zombies, but were mixed on the game's multiplayer component, with some deeming it to be weaker than the one featured in its direct predecessor, <a href="/wiki/Call_of_Duty:_Modern_Warfare_(2019_video_game)" title="Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019 video game)">Call of Duty: Modern Warfare</a> (2019).

The team learns that Volkov helped Perseus smuggle a <a href="/wiki/Nuclear_weapon" title="Nuclear weapon">nuclear device</a> through East Berlin; they also find encrypted coordinates to an unpopulated region within Ukraine. Bell and Woods are sent to these coordinates, where they infiltrate a secret <a href="/wiki/Special_Forces_of_the_Main_Directorate_of_the_General_Staff_of_the_Russian_Armed_Forces" class="mw-redirect" title="Special Forces of the Main Directorate of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces">Spetsnaz</a> training facility and discover that Perseus has infiltrated "Operation Greenlight", a top-secret American program that planted <a href="/wiki/Neutron_bomb" title="Neutron bomb">neutron bombs</a> in every major European city to <a href="/wiki/Scorched_earth" title="Scorched earth">deny their use to the Soviets</a> in the event of an invasion.

The team learns that an Operation Greenlight scientist is one of the sleeper agents and has fled to Cuba, where the team follows. They learn that Perseus has managed to steal the detonation codes for every Operation Greenlight bomb, meaning he can devastate Europe and lay the blame on the United States. The team comes under heavy fire and Lazar and Park are injured, leaving Bell only enough time to save one of them. After rescuing Bell, Adler continues to press them by provoking their memories of Vietnam once more. At this point, Bell's true identity is revealed as an agent of Perseus, having been shot by Arash in Turkey out of jealousy. Adler found Bell and brainwashed them using <a href="/wiki/Project_MKUltra" class="mw-redirect" title="Project MKUltra">Project MKUltra</a> into believing they were his comrade. With Bell's memory returned, Adler interrogates them on the location of Perseus' headquarters. Bell can either choose to remain loyal to Perseus and lie to Adler, or choose to betray Perseus and reveal his location. Should Bell choose the former option, they will tell Adler and his team to head to the <a href="/wiki/Duga_radar" title="Duga radar">Duga radar array</a>, where they will be too far away to stop Perseus from activating the nukes; Bell can also choose to make contact with Perseus and set up an ambush, in which Bell is assisted by several Perseus agents in killing Adler and his team. Otherwise, Bell betrays Perseus and joins the CIA in their assault on Perseus' headquarters in the <a href="/wiki/Solovetsky_Islands" title="Solovetsky Islands">Solovetsky Islands</a>, where they destroy the transmitters needed to send the detonation signal. Later, Adler takes Bell out for a private conversation, assuring them that their choice to turn against Perseus was of their own free will and that they are a hero, before eliminating them as they are a loose end for the CIA. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Multiplayer">Multiplayer</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Call_of_Duty:_Black_Ops_Cold_War&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Multiplayer">edit</a>]</div> In January 1984, a Perseus cell, led by Vikhor "Stitch" Kuzmin (<a href="/wiki/Chris_Parson" title="Chris Parson">Chris Parson</a>), raids a CIA safe house in West Berlin in order to gain intel on Adler.

A test of the program's experimental particle accelerator, however, causes an interdimensional breach to occur, creating a link between Earth and the "Dark Aether" dimension and unleashing hordes of <a href="/wiki/Zombie" title="Zombie">zombies</a>. The Projekt Endstation facility is abandoned by the Nazis soon after, and is later discovered by the Soviet Red Army, who shut down the accelerator and seal off the facility. Decades later, in 1983, a newly established joint KGB-Spetsnaz research team named "Omega Group" uncovers footage of the Endstation facility from Soviet archives, and travels to Morasko to reactivate the particle accelerator. This causes several Dark Aether anomalies to begin appearing around the world. In response to the outbreaks, the CIA establishes a classifed task force, codenamed "Requiem", to combat the undead and conduct research into the anomalies for technological advancement. In November 1983, rogue <a href="/wiki/Federal_Intelligence_Service" title="Federal Intelligence Service">BND</a> operative Samantha Maxis (<a href="/wiki/Julie_Nathanson" title="Julie Nathanson">Julie Nathanson</a>) contacts CIA Special Officer Grigori Weaver (<a href="/wiki/Gene_Farber" title="Gene Farber">Gene Farber</a>), informing him of Omega Group's activity in Poland. Shortly afterwards, Requiem deploys a strike team to the Projekt Endstation facility in Morasko, with Requiem's senior staff, including Weaver, Dr. Elizabeth Grey (<a href="/wiki/Amy_Pemberton" title="Amy Pemberton">Amy Pemberton</a>), Major Mackenzie "Mac" Carver (Keston John), and Dr. Oskar Strauss (<a href="/wiki/Thure_Riefenstein" title="Thure Riefenstein">Thure Riefenstein</a>)—the latter having briefly worked at Projekt Endstation—overseeing their mission. The strike team discover the facility's particle accelerator and a rift that acts as a gateway to the Dark Aether, which is responsible for the other global dimensional breaches. Upon further investigation, the strike team uncovers a device in the facility called "Der Wechsler", which can restore a zombie's brain functionality. The strike team uses it on one of the roaming zombies in the facility, who was a former Omega Group member named Orlov. In turn, he agrees to help the team close the dimensional rift. Orlov successfully seals the rift, destroying the Endstation facility and sacrificing himself in the process, while allowing the strike team to escape. In June 1984, Maxis travels to Outpost 25, an Omega Group facility located in <a href="/wiki/A_S%E1%BA%A7u_Valley" title="A Sầu Valley">A Sầu Valley</a>, Vietnam. There, she hopes to make contact with Sergei Ravenov (<a href="/wiki/Andrew_Morgado" title="Andrew Morgado">Andrew Morgado</a>), a Spetsnaz captain who has lost faith in Omega and wishes to help Maxis stop them, but she is captured by Omega and is thrown into the Dark Aether by Dr. William Peck (Zeke Alton), an American scientist who defected to Omega. Upon learning of Maxis' capture, Ravenov contacts Weaver and requests that he send Requiem's strike team to Outpost 25 to free Maxis. On June 15, the Requiem strike team is deployed in Vietnam and makes contact with Ravenov, who guides them through the undead-infested facility. After learning from Peck of Maxis' current situation, the strike team attempts to open a portal and stabilize it long enough for Maxis to escape the dimension. They eventually succeed and exfiltrate with Maxis, while Ravenov elects to remain undercover as Omega continues their operations in the Ural Mountains. Afterwards, Omega's leaders, Colonel Lev Kravchenko (<a href="/wiki/Andrew_Divoff" title="Andrew Divoff">Andrew Divoff</a>) and Dr. Aleksandra Valentina (<a href="/wiki/Sadie_Alexandru" title="Sadie Alexandru">Sadie Alexandru</a>), travel to Outpost 25 to confront Peck about his failure. In an effort to catch up to Omega Group's progress, Requiem launches "Operation Threshold", a large-scale mission across the Ural Mountains, where the largest outbreak zones have been identified. Over the next several months, Requiem's strike team is deployed in multiple Ural regions in order to eliminate undead targets, capture specimen and commence further research on the mysterious "Aetherium" element. Meanwhile, Maxis is quarantined under isolation due to her time spent inside the Dark Aether. Amidst the operations at the Ural Mountains, both Requiem and Omega come into contact with Kazimir Zykov (Andrew Morgado), a Soviet engineer who was originally sent to the Endstation facility in 1945 to shut it down, and has been trapped inside the Dark Aether since then. Zykov, who wishes to escape the dimension, has attempted to reach out to the real world, giving both Requiem and Omega warnings of a mysterious entity commanding the undead forces from within. In November 1984, Maxis secretly contacts the Requiem strike team during their mission, requesting them to meet with Ravenov. At a missile silo in the "Ruka" region, Ravenov reveals that Peck has been using Aetherium crystals to supercharge nuclear warheads, which would allow Omega Group to create new outbreak zones wherever they choose. Not wishing to let either side possess the warheads, Maxis instructs Ravenov and the strike team to direct the warheads toward the Pacific Ocean, where they can be safely dumped. After clearing out a massive zombie horde guarding the silo, the strike team succeeds in deploying the warheads and is exfiltrated from the area by Requiem pilot Stoney "Raptor One" Maddox (<a href="/wiki/Derek_Phillips_(actor)" title="Derek Phillips (actor)">Derek Phillips</a>). The following month, Ravenov contacts Weaver via Maxis' secret radio channel, and requests Requiem's help in extracting several Omega scientists who wish to defect from the group; though angry at Ravenov and Maxis' secrecy, Weaver agrees to help him. Shortly afterwards, the strike team receives intel from Ravenov that he has lost contact with the scientists. The team is sent to the State Sanatorium U-23 to investigate a crash site and help extract the scientists; however, they were all murdered by Dr. Hugo Jager, an Omega scientist who was secretly a mole planted by Kravchenko to root out the defectors. The strike team attempts to exfil, but is captured by Kravchenko and Omega forces. Meanwhile, Valentina continues to further her own agenda: to open a gateway to the Dark Aether in hopes of freeing her father, who seemingly has been communicating with her from the other side since her childhood. Omega Group eventually deduces Valentina's real identity as Angelika Vogel, the daughter of Ulrich Vogel. In February 1985, an outbreak occurs in East Berlin, where Valentina was last sighted. Having learned of her true allegiance, Kravchenko deploys Requiem's strike team at the Berlin site to stop her, while overseeing their mission, using Raptor One as leverage. Kravchenko and the strike team learn that Valentina has been mutated with Dark Aether energy by "the Forsaken", the entity mentioned by Zykov, who was also masquerading as Vogel to trick Valentina into doing his bidding. With Omega Group's instructions and the assistance of "Klaus", a combat robot customized with an artificial intelligence module created by the Director of Requiem, the strike team constructs a miniature Aetherium warhead using components left onsite by the CIA at an abandoned safe house. Valentina tries to stop them, but is ultimately defeated, and her energy is used to refine the Aetherium for the warhead. As the Forsaken taunts Requiem of his imminent arrival, Klaus carries the warhead through the portal to complete the mission. Kravchenko attempts to betray the strike team at the last minute, but Maxis, using her Dark Aether power, manages to open a portal, allowing the team to escape. Meanwhile, the Director monitors Maxis and sends a group memo to an unknown recipient, noting her growing power as a concern towards "Project Janus". As Operation Threshold expands into the <a href="/wiki/Atlantic_Ocean" title="Atlantic Ocean">North Atlantic Sea</a> and Algeria, the Director continues to pressure Maxis in isolation, coercing her into using her powers. Meanwhile, Omega Group authorizes a new operation to free Zykov from the Dark Aether, intending to use this opportunity to take down the Forsaken with their own warheads. Requiem, after receiving intel on Omega's new operation from Ravenov, also intends to free Zykov by their own means. On June 4, 1985, the Requiem strike team is deployed to an Omega test site in Ukraine, where Kravchenko and Peck are conducting the final steps to open a Dark Aether gateway. They succeed in freeing Zykov, only to learn that he was the Forsaken all along. As Kravchenko and Peck attempt to escape the facility, Maxis and the strike team make their final stand against the Forsaken. Eventually, Maxis sacrifices herself by plunging into a Dark Aether portal, weakening the Forsaken enough for him to be captured by Omega's containment chamber. With the Forsaken defeated, all global outbreak zones are collapsed, and the undead threat is contained. The Director—revealed to be Edward Richtofen (<a href="/wiki/Nolan_North" title="Nolan North">Nolan North</a>)—orders Requiem to be shut down, and its department leads, including Weaver, Grey, Carver, and Strauss, apprehended alongside the strike team and Raptor One, while the Forsaken's chamber is delivered to an unknown location. Five years later, Peck travels to <a href="/wiki/Japan" title="Japan">Japan</a> and charters a boat to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, claiming that he is looking for "some old friends". <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Development">Development</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Call_of_Duty:_Black_Ops_Cold_War&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Development">edit</a>]</div> Black Ops Cold War was co-developed by <a href="/wiki/Treyarch" title="Treyarch">Treyarch</a> and <a href="/wiki/Raven_Software" title="Raven Software">Raven Software</a>, with Treyarch leading production on the multiplayer and Zombies modes and Raven developing the single-player campaign.<a href="#cite_note-BOCWAnnouncePolygon-28">[24]</a><a href="#cite_note-BOCWAnnounce-29">[25]</a> According to reports from <a href="/wiki/Jason_Schreier" title="Jason Schreier">Jason Schreier</a>, the title originally began development as a collaboration between Raven and <a href="/wiki/Sledgehammer_Games" title="Sledgehammer Games">Sledgehammer Games</a>, which was not intended to be an entry in the <a href="/wiki/Call_of_Duty#Black_Ops_story_arc" title="Call of Duty">Black Ops</a> sub-series, but due to disagreements between the two studios, <a href="/wiki/Activision" title="Activision">Activision</a> chose to assign Treyarch to lead development on the project in May 2019.

determined that 61% of critics recommended the game.<a href="#cite_note-OpenCritic-64">[60]</a> The single-player campaign received a mostly positive response from critics. <a href="/wiki/GameSpot" title="GameSpot">GameSpot</a>'s Kallie Plagge praised the campaign's open-ended level design, and highlighted a mission that gives players "free rein" to explore a KGB building, writing that it was "a showcase for both stealth and freedom of choice".<a href="#cite_note-BOCWGSpotReview-65">[61]</a> <a href="/wiki/IGN" title="IGN">IGN</a>'s Ryan McCaffrey enjoyed the inclusion of the <a href="/wiki/Safe_house" title="Safe house">safe house</a> feature and praised the ability to customize the player character, but felt that the game's narrative was weaker than the one featured in <a href="/wiki/Call_of_Duty:_Black_Ops" title="Call of Duty: Black Ops">Call of Duty: Black Ops</a> (2010).<a href="#cite_note-BOCWCampaignReviewIGN-69">[65]</a> <a href="/wiki/Game_Informer" title="Game

title="PC Gamer">PC Gamer</a>'s Morgan Park commented that the campaign's strongest features, such as the stealth-focused missions and the interactions with NPCs, were "under-explored or fleeting", and felt that the game's "perplexing" plot had ended abruptly.<a href="#cite_note-BOCWPCGReview-71">[67]</a> Reviewers had mixed opinions on Black Ops Cold War's multiplayer component. IGN's Simon Cardy gave it a 6/10 score, writing that it was a step backwards from the multiplayer of <a href="/wiki/Call_of_Duty:_Modern_Warfare_(2019_video_game)" title="Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019 video game)">Call of Duty: Modern Warfare</a> (2019) in several aspects, including map design, visuals, and day-one content.<a href="#cite_note-BOCWMultiplayerReviewIGN-70">[66]</a> Plagge felt that the multiplayer was "clumsier" than Modern Warfare, noting the omission of several gameplay features from Modern Warfare, including the ability to mount weapons and <a href="/wiki/Selective_fire" class="mw-redirect" title="Selective fire">switch a weapon's fire rate</a>.<a href="#cite_note-BOCWGSpotReview-65">[61]</a> <a href="/wiki/GamesRadar%2B" title="GamesRadar+">GamesRadar+</a>'s Ford James stated that Black Ops Cold War's selection of maps was an improvement over Modern Warfare's maps, which he found to be "terrible".<a href="#cite_note-BOCWMultiplayerReviewGR+-67">[63]</a> Kevin Dunsmore of Hardcore Gamer also offered praise towards the maps, writing that their core "three-lane" design kept "engagements high and wandering about minimal".<a href="#cite_note-BOCWHCGReview-68">[64]</a> The Zombies mode was met with mostly positive reviews from critics. IGN's David Jagneaux gave the mode a 7/10 rating, praising the "layered" design of its launch map, "Die Maschine", and the ability to start a match with a customized weapon, but criticizing the lack of support for <a href="/wiki/Split_screen_(computing)" title="Split screen (computing)">split-screen</a> play and the exclusion of some features from the Zombies mode in <a

title="PCGamesN">PCGamesN</a>'s Jordan Forward appreciated the inclusion of several features that he thought were helpful in making the mode more accessible to new players, such as the customizable pre-game loadouts and the addition of <a href="/wiki/Health_(game_terminology)#Health_meter" title="Health (game terminology)">health bars</a> for all enemies.<a href="#cite_note-BOCWPCGNReview-72">[68]</a> Plagge praised Die Maschine's design and felt that the mode's learning curve was "manageable", but noted that the overall difficulty curve "rapidly" increased after the first ten rounds.<a href="#cite_note-BOCWGSpotReview-65">[61]</a> <a href="/wiki/Video_Games_Chronicle" title="Video Games Chronicle">Video Games Chronicle</a>'s Jordan Middler
