How to preload Black Ops 6 on PC, PlayStation and Xbox

As a seasoned gamer with countless hours clocked into the Call of Duty franchise, I can’t help but feel a rush of adrenaline as the launch date for Black Ops 6 draws near. The anticipation is palpable, and preloading this game is like loading up on ammo before storming the enemy base – it just makes sense!


The Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 launch is fast approaching, and for those who have preordered the game, you’ll want to preload it so it’s ready to play as soon as servers go live. Here’s how to do it on all platforms.

In every fresh installment of Call of Duty, you’ll get the opportunity to preload the upcoming game several days ahead of its release.

If there’s a pre-load option, using the game you’ve previously bought makes the process a breeze. On the other hand, if it hasn’t been purchased yet, simply buy the game first, then follow the steps below to prepare your console or computer for playtime.

PlayStation

Loading Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 ahead of time on your PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5 is quite straightforward, though you’ll need to wait until October 20th for the preload to become available.

Here’s what you’ve got to do:

  1. Find the Call of Duty app.
  2. Press Start.

  4. Find the Black Ops 6 content.
  5. Select the files you want to install.

However, at the time of writing, there is no date set for Black Ops 6 preloads on Xbox.
