One of the new maps coming to Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 in Season 1 includes Splitgate-like portals that allow players to instantly transport themselves from one area of the arena to another.
The map, Fate, is set inside David Mason's mind, taking players "into the nightmare he's tried to forget."
"Step into a warped vision of Menendez's Nicaraguan compound, now twisted beyond recognition: colossal machetes carve through the sky, and shattered pieces of reality hang suspended as if time itself has splintered," reads a line from the description.
This kind of thing is fitting for the Black Ops brand, which is known for often being weird and trippy. And it's not even totally new for developer Treyarch, as Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War had teleporting doors as well on the Depogram map.
Black Ops 7 Season 1 launches on December 4, and in addition to new multiplayer maps, players can expect more guns, operators, and changes that will help players unlock content faster. For more, be sure to read up on GameSpot's complete coverage of Black Ops 7 Season 1.
In other news, one video game industry analyst has said Call of Duty is underperforming in 2025 for a variety of reasons, including burnout, competition, creative decisions, and AI slop.
