Update (15:20pm BST, 24/5/23): Activision has now confirmed that this year’s COD is actually called Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. It will be fully revealed at the Xbox Games Showcase on June 9, with a Black Ops 6 direct demo – which will provide “the first in-depth look at all-new gameplay” – following that reveal.
Activision has recently ramped up its promotion of this year’s Call of Duty game, largely by putting blindfolds on stone statues of several former U.S. presidents, but now those hints appear to have given way to a formal promotional push. Yes, Call of Duty 2024 finally has an official name – Call of Duty Black Ops 6.

As eagle-eyed fans spotted, today’s edition of USA Today appears to contain some ads specifically calling the game Black Ops 6, via text that appears next to the game’s logo, which features three little A dog, or a puppy, casts two shadows – as well as some not-so-realistic news stories involving in-game story developments.
There’s also a cheeky link to the game trailer site thetruthlies.com, which definitely doesn’t sound like the kind of place you might read about a conspiracy by LGBTQ+ people to take over the world via strong-smelling crop dusters. Bathroom air fresheners in rural America.

Assuming that the game is Black Ops 6, it would be the first entry in the series since 2020’s Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, which is essentially confirmed to be Black Ops 5, a follow-up to Black Ops 1 through Black Ops 4.
While people have started trying to decipher all the trailers to find out what the game is about, the reveal of the title seems to have led people to believe that the game will be announced soon.
