The first Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 product tie-in has been uncovered, with one fan revealing that longtime Call of Duty collaborator Monster Energy will be offering special in-game rewards for the upcoming title. A new can of the popular energy drink has been spotted in the wild, featuring the new Black Ops 6 logo, as well as a QR code players can scan to unlock unique rewards.
Officially unveiled earlier this summer, the hype is palpable for the next chapter in the Call of Duty franchise, with Treyarch returning to develop the title after last working on Cold War in 2020. Black Ops 6 will feature a wide assortment of new maps and classic modes to play, including a new campaign, but many players are excited to try the game's multiplayer, which features several tweaks and changes compared to previous releases.
The Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Beta is Officially Making History
The upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 multiplayer beta will represent a first for the long-running FPS franchise.
Ahead of the game's release, Black Ops 6 has partnered with Monster Energy, offering players in-game rewards to use in multiplayer and other modes in the game. Reddit user Mr_NoTalk found a new Monster Energy can in the wild, which offers special in-game rewards for Black Ops 6. It's not clear what scanning this code will give players, but it may involve double XP or some other in-game bonus. The promotion reportedly does not begin until September 1, 2024, according to other members of the Call of Duty community. Just like other entries in the series, the game will require XP to level up, but Black Ops 6 marks the return of classic prestige, something fans have been wanting for quite some time.
New Black Ops 6 Collaboration Revealed
Product tie-ins are nothing new for the video game world, especially for first-person shooters. The popular energy drink brand has collaborated with Call of Duty before, with Monster Energy offering players in-game rewards for Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone. These items ranged from double XP to new weapon blueprints and operator rewards, giving fans a hint of what's to come in Black Ops 6 later this year.
Black Ops 6 could be a defining moment in the Call of Duty franchise and promises to bring several aspects of the series back to its roots, most notably Call of Duty Zombies. This chaotic and violent game mode began with World at War in 2008 and has since become one of the most popular parts of the Call of Duty brand. Treyarch has confirmed that round-based maps are returning in Black Ops 6, as well as a dedicated crew. However, it's still unknown where Black Ops 6 will take the Zombies storyline. Black Ops 6 officially releases on October 25, 2024.

WHERE TO PLAY
Forced to go rogue. Hunted from within. This is Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
Developed by Treyarch and Raven, Black Ops 6 is a spy action thriller set in the early 90s, a period of transition and upheaval in global politics, characterized by the end of the Cold War and the rise of the United States as a single superpower. With a mind-bending narrative, and unbound by the rules of engagement, this is signature Black Ops.
The Black Ops 6 Campaign provides dynamic moment-to-moment gameplay that includes a variety of play spaces with blockbuster set pieces and action-packed moments, high-stakes heists, and cloak-and-dagger spy activity.
In a best-in-class Multiplayer experience, players will test their skills across 16 new maps at launch, including 12 core 6v6 maps and 4 Strike maps that can be played 2v2 or 6v6.
Black Ops 6 also marks the epic return of Round-Based Zombies, the fan-favorite mode where players will take down hordes of the undead in two brand-new maps at launch. Post-launch, players can look forward to even more exciting maps and groundbreaking experiences dropping into both Multiplayer and Zombies.
