Summary
July’s PlayStation return for Call of Duty: Black Ops 1 and 2 will be straightforward ports, with Activision telling Eurogamer the PS4 and PS5 versions are not remasters.
Both games will still include campaign, multiplayer and Zombies, finally bringing the PS3-era titles to Sony’s newer consoles after the original hardware’s Cell architecture blocked backward compatibility.
Iron Galaxy is handling the releases, and the port label suggests no ground-up overhaul or native PS5 features such as 120Hz or VRR support.
Even so, modern hardware could deliver a major visual lift from the PS3 originals, which ran at 960x544 for Black Ops and 832x624 for Black Ops 2.
