Call of Duty: Next is a yearly event where Activision, along with its studios that make CoD games, puts on a showcase to reveal what’s coming next in the series.

Previously, CoD Next was used to unveil modes from games like Modern Warfare 2, Modern Warfare 3, Warzone, and Warzone Mobile. In 2024, CoD Next is all about Black Ops 6, but that’s not the only game that will be featured.

During CoD Next, Activision will unveil new features coming to Black Ops 6 multiplayer, the return of round-based Zombies and a look at the new Liberty Falls map, new looks at what’s coming toWarzone Mobile, CoD Mobile, and what’s next for Warzone, including a new map called Area 99 and Black Ops 6 integration.

Typically, Activision invites dozens of content creators, Twitch streamers, and YouTubers to CoD Next to play the new CoD games and modes to show them off to fans and viewers to generate hype for the next release in the series.
