Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War is officially this year’s installment in the popular first-person shooter franchise. Revealed in a teaser in late August after days of teasing the game’s announcement, the sequel focus on the tensions between the United States and Russia during the height of the Cold War.
Yet, although the teaser did a good job of setting up the general themes and conflict of the new game, it still left plenty of questions to answer. How will the new game work in tandem with Modern Warfare‘s current Warzone battle royale mode? Or will Cold War get its own battle royale mode for players to obsess over?
Most important of all, since Treyarch and Raven Software are developing Cold War together, does this mean that the new Call of Duty game will have a Zombies mode?

The Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War trailer not only demonstrated the fascinating ideas of Kgb defector and noted journalist Yuri Bezmenov, but also briefly referenced the name “Perseus” as one of the presumed key players in the game’s story.
Of course, that trailer no doubt has many of you asking a very simple question: “Who is Perseus?”
The question may be simple, but the answer is anything but. The name Perseus is one of the most mysterious remnants of the Cold War era (and beyond) as well as a favorite among among conspiracy theorists who consider Perseus to be a potentially major missing piece of a grand puzzle.
We’ll try to fill in a few of those pieces ourselves as we look at the meaning of the name Perseus, their role in the Cold War, and even their possible upcoming role in Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War.

The official debut trailer for Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War has finally arrived. While we’ve known for quite some time that the next Call of Duty game would focus on the Cold War, we weren’t quite prepared for the nature of the trailer itself.
It’s an odd preview filled with cryptic messages and a distinct lack of action sequences. Most notably, though, it focuses on an old interview featuring a mysterious man with some cryptic warnings about the slow takeover of a nation and its people. Well, that man is named Yuri Bezmenov, and he’s one of the most quietly important figures of the Cold War.
In an attempt to slowly uncover just what Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War is all about, we’re going to examine the real history of Yuri Bezmenov, the context of the interview featured in that trailer,...

This year’s Call of Duty game has finally been announced. As previously rumored, the game is called Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War. The title, which is being developed by Treyarch and Raven Software, was confirmed in a teaser trailer ahead of a bigger world reveal set for Aug. 26. The reveal will happen within Verdansk, the massive map where the Call of Duty Warzone battle royale game is set, according to GameSpot.
Check out the teaser below:
The trailer mostly revolves around Kgb defector Yuri Bezmenov, a former Soviet journalist who famously warned the world of a Soviet spy tasked with infiltrating Western intelligence in order to win the nuclear arms race at the height of the Cold War. A major part of the plan? A decades-long operation to destabilize the United States from within.
The trailer flashes through moments of unrest in American history, including the Vietnam...
