The general sentiment of the reviews indicates a consistent appreciation for Zombies mode among players, with its mix of nostalgia and innovative gameplay features. However, the campaign is almost universally criticized for poor design choices and unimaginative AI-generated content. While some aspects of multiplayer are praised, such as the movement system and maps, the game overall faces criticism for balance issues and matchmaking inconsistencies. Players also express dissatisfaction with high system requirements and persistent technical issues, affecting the overall experience. Despite the mixed reviews, hardcore zombies fans may still find value in the game, although the broader package leaves much to be desired.

Positive Points

  • Zombies mode is highlighted as a major success, with many players describing it as the best iteration since Black Ops 3, featuring challenging Easter eggs and engaging gameplay.
  • Multiplayer offers a solid experience with maps that blend new designs and classic favorites, providing a fun but fast-paced environment.
  • Some players appreciate the reduced presence of Skill-Based Matchmaking (SBMM), stating that it's not as noticeable and allows for more casual play.
  • The movement system is praised for being smooth, with particular accolades for the wall jumping mechanic which adds a skill ceiling to the game.

    • Negative Points

  • The campaign is universally criticized for being poorly designed, featuring uninspired storylines and bizarre, unenjoyable mechanics without any ability to pause or offline play.
  • Players express frustration over having to enable TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot to play, which has caused significant accessibility issues.
  • Frequent reports of performance issues such as crashes, packet loss, and high latency disrupt the enjoyment of gameplay.
  • The use of AI-generated content is seen as lazy and detracts from the experience, leaving many assets feeling cheap and unpersonalized.

    • Mixed Points

  • Endgame mode receives mixed feedback; while some find it a fresh take as an extraction shooter, others see it as just another attempt to reuse existing assets.
  • While many appreciate the open matchmaking options, some players still feel the presence of SBMM, suggesting inconsistent experiences across playlists.

    • Common Themes

  • Zombies shines as the standout mode, with a well-received mix of new mechanics and nostalgic elements, proving a hit with series veterans.
  • The campaign's failure has been a huge talking point, viewed as a regression from past CoD narrations and largely seen as a missed opportunity.
  • Multiplayer holds value mainly due to the map selection and aesthetic callbacks, but suffers from balancing and competitive fairness issues.
  • The general move towards AI and other cost-cutting measures by the developers has not gone unnoticed, resulting in a loss of goodwill among long-time fans.
