This is a review for Black Ops 6 Multiplayer ONLY. I have not played the campaign and most of my playtime was in the beta version. There will be no plot section due to this fact.

Gameplay
Black Ops 6's gameplay is amazingly fun. The guns are fun to play around with. You keep trying each one until you find your favorite. I like the XM4 Assault Rifle. I'll break down some of the modes individually. And then talk about Gunsmith, Operators and the look of the game.
Kill Order
My favorite mode. it's a classic deathmatch where the first team to 150 points wins. But there's a catch. each team has an HVT or "High Value Target" who has armor plates and when killed gives the other team +5 points. The main goal is to kill your adversaries while keeping an eye out for the enemy HVT. As you can imagine, some people just head straight for the enemy HVT and get themselves killed. I do think the ally HVT is ignored by players a little too much. And the player who is HVT can essentially just camp. But this is still a fun deathmatch mode with a little twist. its enjoyable and satisfying to play. Taking out the HVT adds an extra level of satisfaction to eliminations.

Hardpoint
Hardpoint is a remixed control points mode. The control points move as teams capture them. So, you have to capture all of the points in a row to win. But you can push back your opponent by stealing the point back for your team. To be honest I did not like this mode. I played it in beta and never played it again. It's not focused on eliminations and most of the time the team who captured the first point will just hold it hostage for the rest of the match while some players will always be using cheap tactics in this mode. There are quite a few ways for sweats to win here. Don't like this one.
Deathmatch
It is what it sounds like. Deathmatch is a classic mode for players who just want a good gunfight with no special gimmicks.
It's essentially HVT without the HVT. It's fun, has no strings attached, and is perfect for new players who want to get into it. The mode can be played on each creative and inventive map and is perfect for any player. The maps for this mode are amazingly fun to play on. My personal favorites are "Derelict" and "Skyline" Derelict is a junkyard full of cover and sniping positions while Skyline is a Penthouse suite full of secret passageways and spots to have massive battles. One hallway in Skyline is particularly nasty.
There are many other modes as well.

Kill Confirmed: Deathmatch where you must collect enemies dog tags after killing them. this is an interesting mode that I haven't played yet.
Free-For-All: Um... It's in the name. Free for all deathmatch.
Headquarters: King of the hill mode. Capture one point for the required time to win.
Gunfight: 2v2 last team standing.
Control: Classic Control Points mode.
Search & Destroy: Bomb defusal mode with no respawns. Sounds like Counter-Strike.
And last but not least: Domination. I still don't know what this mode is. Seems like CTF meets HQ mode.
And now onto the Gunsmith, Looks and Operators.
The Operators are actually grounded this time. No crazy outfits like Sam from Trick or Treat. I am on the "Keep CoD realistic" side of things. I do not want Call of Duty to start looking like a Halo game or something similar. Weirdness is okay if given out in small amounts in CoD. Warzone attempted to copy Fortnite with stupid outfits. There are some crazy outfits but only for Pre-orders. I like the roster so far. There are a few that don't look good at all. (Payne and Rossi) Stone was my go-to in the beta and now I use Woods.

Gunsmith is fun. I had never really used features like that in the past, but I do like how they let you customize your gun to your play style. I built a XM4 AR (My go to weapon) for accuracy and when I needed my gun out quick. Quick warning: The multiplayer is super sweaty, and campers are plentiful. The XM4 is a great starting gun. But some people may not want to swap over to more advanced guns. The Gunsmith and gunplay are as excellent as ever. Combat is smooth and satisfying and there are a wide range of playstyles to try. I like how lost health is based on the part of the body that was hit rather than just getting headshots. This is the first game I've played that actually does this and I wish more games did the advanced hitboxes. The Maps are varying in quality. Skyline, Derelict and Subsonic are amazingly fun to play on, but maps like Vault, Payback and Protocol have WAY too many camping spots. One building in Vault is essentially the only point you need to control to win, prone players in Payback hide behind corners and take cheap shots, and windows and corners in Protocol are absurd. Some maps you can get lost easily in like Lowtown and Red card because they are just WAY TOO BIG. And some like Rewind and Vorkuta are just okay. Most maps are new and inventive and are fun to play on, however.
Post-Opinion
Call Of Duty Black Ops 6 is one of the first "New" FPS games I have enjoyed. Destiny is older than some people expect, Quake Champions is from 2022, and Halo Infinite is a dumpster fire. But this is the best FPS game I have played released in the last 2 years. Call of Duty Black Ops 6 hits the mark on everything. The weapons are great and fun to play around with, the maps are good, Graphics are amazing, and the multiplayer gunfights are the best I've played in a while. Bo6's multiplayer is amazing but is semi messed up by campers and Sweats. Some perks, Guns, and maps should be edited but overall, the game is great.
Here are the scores.
Gameplay: 93%.
Gameplay is where this game really shines. I would put it higher if not for Sweats and Campers. They kind of screw it up.
Soundtrack: 60%
Wait... There's a soundtrack?!
Graphics: 93%
Some of the best graphics I've seen in an FPS game period.
Overall: 90%🌟
Call of Duty Black Ops 6 hits the mark in almost every way. The gameplay is smooth and fun, The Graphics are some of the best and the game has one of the best multiplayers to date. However, there are just too many Sweats and camping spots for a higher score. But even with them you have a game of the year candidate.
