As the competition between Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and Battlefield 6 heats up, the selection of maps will be a huge sticking point for fans. Although Battlefield 6 typically supports larger maps and bigger battles with more players, Black Ops 7 is adopting a volume-based approach and will feature 19 maps at launch.
These maps, by and large, support 6v6 multiplayer on a smaller scale, but Black Ops 7 will also launch with two Skirmish maps, which bring the action up to a 20v20 affair. There are also plenty of modes to play, not even counting all the other gametypes beyond traditional multiplayer. It’s going to be a packed launch.
Every Battlefield 6 Multiplayer Map Confirmed For Launch
There are 16 Maps Featuring 6v6
At launch, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 will ship with 17 maps that support 6v6 multiplayer, as well as two Skirmish maps (20v20). This is on top of the campaign, Endgame, zombies, and Dead Ops Arcade modes. There’s a decent mix of both returning and new maps with Black Ops 7, and the sheer number of launch maps should break up the repetition of constant multiplayer.
