This is the best game outside of Astro's Playworld to fully demonstrate the capabilities of the DualSense 5 controller. Every gun feels different on both the aim and fire triggers, with heavier guns requiring more effort to pull the trigger to aim. The graphics are as to be expected for next generation, especially with ray tracing turned on. The campaign was fun, but totaled around 5 hours of play time for me with side missions as well. The zombies mode is an absolute blast and it has many welcome elements that are making a return from the classic zombies' days of the original Black ops. However, on PS5 this game has given me some trouble. I tried for a few days to install the campaign and it gave me errors. Just today, after playing for a few hours, the game locked up completely and shut the PS5 off, requiring it to check storage. This happened twice, so I hung up the controller for the day. They have been pretty good about fixing known issues, so I assume an update will address this, along with split screen not working. Outside of the minor issues, hence the 4 star, the game is certainly worth the money.

Welcome addition to the CoD franchise, and definitely a solid game across the board. Campaign is great. Multiplayer is great. Zombies is great. Worth it for the entertainment value.

My favorite things about this game are: 1) great graphics, 2) great online multiplayer, 3) great local multiplayer, 4) Zombies.
Installing this game in the PS5 was tricky. Even though you have a disk game, the game will install a little short of 200GB in your console (makes me wonder why the disk then??). Secondly, it will only install Part 1 of the campaign. You will need to delete Part 1 of the campaign after it is fully downloaded. After deleting part 1 of the campaign, you need to go back to the campaign and re-download the campaign (which then downloads parts 1 and 2.). Lastly, you will need to repeat the process again to download part 3 of the campaign.
A little inconvenient and strange, but it shouldn’t take long if you have a good internet plan without LOTS of gigabytes allowed in your plan.
Aside from that, great game and great graphics.

Great graphics and gameplay for PS5 Launch title. Multiplayer and zombies are really fun game modes, despite being more basic and simplistic than Modern Warfare. I'm enjoying it very much. Hopefully there are more downloadable levels in the future.

The ps5 adaptive triggers make this a totally new experience. Still the same old cod overall you know if you love it or hate it but this game offers a lot in one package, campaign, zombies, multiplayer modes and will soon be tying into warzone.

This game has an extraordinary campaign, zombies is absolutely delightful but the multiplayer is very bland in comparison to previous call of duties. Ps5 haptic feedback and triggers add another level of immersion to the game as well

I’ve played a lot of Call Of Duty games but this one beats them all, the campaign mode is second to none because it goes beyond just doing regular missions you’ve done in the past. When you play with the game combined with the PS5 controller with haptic feedback and the 3D audio headset, you actually feel like your in the game completing missions whether it’s a sneaking missions or all out gunfight in the air with a helicopter or on the ground with assault weapon or machine gun it’s really really fun and immersive. The multiplayer is very fun too, you can customize and build your weapon like you want it to be and now there’s more perks to have multiple attachments to you weapon to make it more diverse as you see fit etc....not to mention more maps and modes added for the multiplayer experience.

So far so good. I'm in the middle of the campaign currently and I'm having a great time. The campaign is very fun and engaging. You either like playing the campaign or multiplayer. Or both. I always play through the campaign first before I go online. One irritating thing was downloading this game. Why would you separate the campaign into 3 parts to he downloaded?? This was so confusing & convoluted. It took entirely too long for this game to get copied onto the SSD. That was my only issue. Again campaign is great and based on the alpha & beta, the multiplayer will be solid and fun as well. It's COD go get it!

This game looks amazing on the PS5. It did shut off my ps5 a few times while playing zombies. Not sure if its the game or if its the PS5. Multiplayer is pretty fun, guns took a while to level up but I believed they resolved that issue.

Incredible. I don’t know why people complained so much about this game before I bought it. I honestly never liked any of the call of duty games until modern warfare came out. I was ADDICTED to it. I figured Cold War had to be at least the same and hopefully better. I am addicted as well. I think the graphics are better, but I prefer the maps and weapons from modern warfare. The game is a blast and my newest addiction. I think gamers who are obsessed with every little detail, the ones who take it too serious are the ones complaining. It’s an amazing game, multiplayer is crazy fun and there’s absolutely no reason not to buy it! I would have been upset if I listened to the people and ended up not buying it

Seriously, I've played them all and idk how people don't enjoy this one. The speed (char weight and map size) is great, campaign is fire, zombies is unique and actually enjoyable again.. customization is fantastic too, I think people aren't realizing yet that it's just different but there are tons of choices.
Best COD ever prob. Would give 10 stars if I could, this is the first game in a long time I've woken up at night to play before work.

This is definitely the most immersive way to play, with the controller haptics on the dual sense.
I enjoy the multiplayer and zombies, have not got into the campaign yet.
If you have the option to play this on a pc with an rtx 2060 or higher, go that route!
That being said, ps5 would be my second choice, and not very far behind.
I also own this game on series x, and it feels great on that console, but the Xbox itself is almost a novelty item to me at this point, not having any Xbox only exclusive content.

This game is great! The story twist isn't as big as the original black ops but I love the twist in the campaign. I think people hate on cod due to game fatigue but this is one of the better cod games, I think modern warfare 2019 is a little better overall but this is not a bad substitute. I haven't played zombies at all but I'm sure it's great as well. If you like fps games this is a must buy. And if you have a ps5 it's even better with the haptic feedback from the triggers.

Had a few codes pop up when I first tried to play on PS5. The issue is when you first get the console you can play the game while other things are installing, and you must close other apps before opening this one. I think Sony has also already pushed out a patch to resolve this issue. The gameplay is amazing, the graphics are much better than they were in the Beta, and the haptic feedback and audio are so much better than the last gen experience! My favorite PS5 game for now!
