PS5 Pro Will Upgrade the Xbox-Owned Call of Duty: Black Ops 6

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has appeared in an official Sony list of PS5 Pro launch games, confirming Treyarch is working on enhancements for the upgraded console despite now being owned by Microsoft. It's not known just yet what those technical updates will be, but Diablo 4 also appears on the list, so it seems the Xbox console maker is open to its teams improving the console versions of its games.

This means the PS5 Pro will have the best console version of Call of Duty Black Ops 6. The FPS already runs at an incredibly smooth 60 frames-per-second with impressive visuals on the base PS5, and it has a 120fps option for those with compatible 4K TVs. Presumably, the PS5 Pro patch will simply make it look and run even better. Since Microsoft appears happy for its developers to work with PS5 Pro, though, this could open up its Xbox game ports in the future — like Indiana Jones and the Great Circle — to look and run best on PS5 Pro.

Black Ops 6 represents a strong return for the series after the disappointing launch of Modern Warfare 3. We awarded the game an 8/10 in our PS5 review and concluded: "Its single player campaign is one of the franchise’s best-ever efforts, the multiplayer is jam-packed with engaging content, and the Zombies mode seems just as good as it always is when Treyarch is leading things. It never really went away, but Black Ops 6 feels like Call of Duty back at its modern peak."
