Call of Duty: Black Ops 1 and 2 Re-Released With Controversial Feature
- Activision released ports of the first two Black Ops games on the PlayStation Store, bringing these classic shooters to PS5 with original DLC map packs available for separate purchase.
- Treyarch's popular Black Ops subseries returns to newer hardware after Activision announced these ports a few weeks ago, targeting players who missed the PS3 and Xbox era of gaming.
- Purchasing both base games and season passes costs $140 without a discount, though PlayStation Plus subscribers can access a deal cutting each base game to $20 and each season pass to $10 until August 6.
- Even modern remasters like the Oblivion remaster included DLCs for $50, undercutting these ports' pricing structure. Fans should not expect prices to drop soon, as these games are over 14 years old.
- Regardless of pricing concerns, these ports feature classic maps including the WWI-set Origins, Mob of the Dead Zombies, Buried, and Grind, extending the Black Ops game life cycle for enthusiasts.
