Call of Duty: Black Ops and Black Ops 2 will be ported to PlayStation platforms in July 2026. The ports will be available on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles, according to Activision and developer Iron Galaxy [1, 2].
These versions will include the full campaign, multiplayer, and Zombies modes from the original games released in 2010 and 2012 respectively [1, 2]. Activision emphasized that the releases are ports, not remasters, meaning players should not expect enhanced graphics or PlayStation 5-specific features such as 120Hz support [2].
Details remain unclear on whether the ports will offer any new features, crossplay support, or downloadable content. Activision has yet to confirm the inclusion of these elements [1, 2].
The original games were previously available on platforms including PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, Wii U, and PC between 2010 and 2012 [1]. The July 2026 ports mark the first time the Black Ops games will be officially available on modern PlayStation consoles.
In May 2026, leaked ratings for the Black Ops ports surfaced on Korea's Game Rating and Administration Committee ahead of the official announcement [1].
These re-releases precede the upcoming launch of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, which is scheduled for October 23, 2026 on Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X [1]. Activision's focus on these legacy titles suggests a buildup toward the new release.
Call of Duty fans can expect the Black Ops 1 and 2 ports to arrive on PS4 and PS5 in July 2026, when more details about features and pricing are likely to be announced.
