Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is now available across five platforms.

The fifth chapter of the Black Ops series has received widespread praise from players as they get stuck into a brand-new campaign, new multiplayer, and an all-new Zombies storyline.

For multiplayer, there have been several new additions for Black Ops Cold War, including a unique level progression system and some brand-new game modes which have made their debut in the game.

The inclusion of Fireteam: Dirty Bomb has been a hit amongst players looking for large-scale, objective-based action and it appears that another mode will be making its debut in the not too distant future.
