‘Black Ops 7’ Campaign Review: A Major Letdown For ‘Call Of Duty’ Fans
Black Ops 7’s campaign forces always-online co-op with no pause or checkpoints, linking progression to multiplayer and locking end-game access behind campaign completion.
- This year, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7's campaign is always-online even solo and defaults to co-op with missions loading like multiplayer, the reviewer called it a massive letdown.

- Multiplayer strength may salvage the game's overall standing, as the reviewer remained bullish due to multiplayer and the Season 1 post-launch roadmap, but longtime Call of Duty players risk alienation from the offline single-player mode absence.
