Call of Duty®: Black Ops Cold War Pre-Loading, File Size Update, and Confrontation Weapon Pack Details

  • BOCW

Prepare for Black Ops Cold War with this guide to pre-loading, as well as learn about the free bundle you’ll get when you pre-order the game: The Confrontation Weapons Pack.

The launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is coming soon on November 13th, and if you haven’t pre-ordered it yet, now is the time to do so.

If you pre-ordered the game digitally, you can pre-load it to ensure it’s ready to go at launch.

Also, no matter what platform you pre-order on, you’ll get two free Weapon Blueprints available the second you start the game through the Confrontation Weapons Pack.

Here are the details for that pack, as well as when pre-loading is available over the next week:

Confrontation Weapon Pack

Along with the Woods Operator pack for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare® and WarzoneTM, digital pre-orders will receive the Confrontation Weapons Pack in Black Ops Cold War.

Available immediately once Create-a-Class is unlocked, the Confrontation Weapons Pack includes two rifles stylized to show the cultural divide between East and West Cold War forces.

Representing the U.S.S.R. is the Iron Curtain, an Assault Rifle based on an iconic Soviet heavy-hitting weapon. The other Blueprint, the Western Front, is a three-round burst Tactical Rifle with plenty of patriotic flare. Both Blueprints will include five pre-configured attachments, allowing you to experiment with these attachments before they are unlocked organically on that specific weapon.

These two Blueprints can be found and equipped through the Create-a-Class section of the Loadouts menu.

Pre-Loading Details

Pre-loading will be available in the coming days before the game’s November 13th launch for all platforms, including next-generation consoles once they arrive.
