Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 runs well on PS5 and Series X - but last-gen consoles are struggling


Can PS4 and Xbox One generation consoles handle Call of Duty: Black Ops 6? Digital Foundry stacks them up against PS5 and Xbox Series machines.

Using IW9, we'll soon see the gameplay systems in Black Ops 6's campaign roll out to its battle royale mode as well, including the so-called omni-movement that lets players sprint and dive in all directions. Black Ops 6's campaign is one of the series' most adventurous in years: we get branching dialogue trees, large free-roaming sandbox levels, and even stealthy, Hitman-style missions which you're free to tackle in several ways. Even worse, PS4 suffers from major streaming issues at points, notably on the Hunting Season mission, where moving between segments of the map triggers a spell of stuttering motion.
