This year, Call of Duty will return with it’s ninth installment with Black Ops 2. As expected it will be following Treyarch’s previous game Black Ops. It’s release date is set for the 6th of November.
Yesterday, it was noticed that Treyarch and Activision had begun their marketing campaign for their next Call of Duty title. Posters such as this one, containing a potential announcement date, began appearing in various GameStop locations.
It also suggested the importance of the word “Eclipse” which, thanks to the help of some YouTubers, led us to believe that the next CoD will be releasing on November the 13th, 2012, a day in which a total solar eclipse will take place and also a day which happens to be the second Tuesday of the month, a day that CoD titles typically release. Thanks to a brand new poster that has appeared on the PSPKing forums from an “unnamed source,” it seems that November the 13th will, indeed, be the release date of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, if it is to be believed. Check it out for yourself and let us know what you think in the comments below!
New Black Ops 2 Game Modes:
Escort ~ A game mode in which you escort a player across three flags to achieve victory. The enemy team killing the player will result in a win for their side.
Split Spawn ~ A game mode in which you spawn from a hellicopter, and climb down to get to the ground. The player starts with 3 lives. One player can control the chopper to let you climb down in different areas, as well as shoot from the chopper. If the chopper is destroyed, players can no longer spawn. Players compete for a central flag that takes 2x as long to capture than a regular domination flag. Either the death of all opposing players or the capturing of the flag will grant you a win. This game has 2 rounds.
Equalizer ~ A game mode in which players are switched to the enemy team upon death. Players will compete for a flag, which when owned, open up a power plant to allow the player to customize their class in game, get new weapons, and put on a juggernaut suit for their team only.When there are 2 players left on a team, they are granted with the power plant automatically, and pointstreaks up to a 5 point requirement can also be obtained. If either of the two players die, they will remain on their own team. The team with the most converts (kills) at the end will win. If tied, whoever is currently owning the power plant will win.
