The official worldwide release date for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is set for November 14. Until recently, there were no plans for early access to any part of the game. However, new leaks suggest that Activision may be preparing an early release for the Campaign and Zombies modes.
If true, this would allow players to experience the story-driven content before the multiplayer portion goes live, a move that has been popular with fans in past Call of Duty releases.
Early Campaign Access Is a Familiar Strategy
When a new Call of Duty game approaches launch, many players hope to play the Campaign early. This gives fans time to enjoy the story without the pressure of competitive multiplayer modes.
Activision has used this approach before. Both Modern Warfare II and Modern Warfare III allowed players to access the Campaign up to a week early. Black Ops 7 may be following a similar path.
PlayStation Database Leak Sparks Speculation
The latest rumors come from the well-known PlayStation Game Size account on X, which regularly uncovers details from the PlayStation database.
According to the leaked information, Black Ops 7 preloading may begin on November 9. More notably, the database reportedly lists November 10 as the unlock date for the Campaign and Zombies modes. That would give players access four days before the official global release.
Confusing Dates Raise Questions
Things become more complicated when looking at other data points. The same database reportedly lists the full release date as November 17, which conflicts with the officially announced November 14 launch.
This is likely a database error that will be corrected by Sony or Activision. The bigger question is whether the November 10 early access date is final or will be adjusted.
If Activision sticks to its usual strategy of a full week early access, the Campaign and Zombies could launch as early as November 7. If November 10 remains unchanged, it may indicate a shorter early access window this year or an internal schedule shift.
What This Could Mean for Players
Despite the uncertainty, the leaked data strongly suggests that players may be able to play Black Ops 7 before multiplayer servers open.
That would be welcome news for fans who prefer narrative content or cooperative Zombies gameplay before diving into competitive matches.
Still, nothing is official yet. Until Treyarch or Activision confirms the details, these dates should be treated cautiously.
