Rumor: Black Ops 6 Will See Fan Favorite Mode Return

Highlights

  • Uplink from Infinite Warfare may return in Black Ops 6, according to data mined from the recently leaked beta build.
  • Massive leaks for Black Ops 6 revealed multiplayer features, weapons, and a rumored new Warzone map.

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of Call of Duty under my belt, I can’t help but feel a sense of nostalgic excitement upon hearing about the potential return of Uplink in Black Ops 6. This mode has been a fan-favorite since its debut in Advanced Warfare back in 2014, and its absence from the mainline series has left a void that I’ve longed to fill.


As an enthusiastic fan, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news that has been hinted at by a trusted Call of Duty data miner and leaker. It seems there are whispers about the return of Uplink, a beloved multiplayer mode that was last seen in 2016’s Infinite Warfare, in none other than Black Ops 6! This intriguing revelation came to light after a beta build for Black Ops 6 found its way online, offering data miners an opportunity to delve into the game’s hidden features by examining the in-game files.

In August, the latest installment of Call of Duty, known as Black Ops 6, experienced its most significant data breach yet, with multiplayer levels, weapons, and gameplay being shared online. This happened due to a leaked PS4 beta build. A large portion of the leaks originated from an early version of the game, but diligent data miners have also unearthed what appears to be the first glimpse of a potential new Call of Duty: Warzone map, speculated to be launched in 2025.

After a significant revelation, it seemed as if fans had exhausted all possibilities, but a data miner known as COD Warfare shared on Twitter that Uplink might resurface in the upcoming Black Ops 6. This popular multiplayer mode initially emerged in 2014’s Advanced Warfare, and since then, it has also been featured in Black Ops 3 and Infinite Warfare. Notably, the mode appeared in Call of Duty: Mobile, but it’s been absent from a mainline Call of Duty game for about eight years. There were discussions regarding Sledgehammer Games integrating Uplink into Call of Duty: WW2, yet they couldn’t make the predominantly jet pack-based mode align with the theme of WW2.

Uplink Could Finally Return to Call of Duty

The official launch of the open beta for Black Ops 6 is scheduled towards the end of August, however, details about the upcoming shooter are surfacing early due to a leaked build. As reported by COD Warfare, in-game documents mention Uplink repeatedly. The leaker further disclosed that texts related to Uplink can be found within the files of Black Ops 6, hinting at its possible inclusion in the game.

  • “Upload the satellite before time expires”
  • “Upload the satellite or defend until the time expires”
  • “Sudden Death. Next upload wins.”
  • “Upload the satellite to set the Time to Beat”

In the original version, players needed to seize a satellite drone, typically found at the map’s center, and transport it to the enemy’s initial position. Games like Advanced Warfare positioned this objective at great heights, allowing players to ascend using jetpacks. It remains uncertain how the mode will be tailored for a Call of Duty game without jetpacks, but it’s likely that the new omnidirectional movement in Black Ops 6 could significantly influence how the gameplay unfolds.
