Summary
£35 apiece for Black Ops 1 and 2 — £122 with both season passes — has driven player backlash after the PS4 and PS5 ports launched with few meaningful improvements.
1080p output, no 4K, no 120Hz, no PS5-specific features and no modern options like an FOV slider led Digital Foundry to call the releases "low effort."
£26 season passes are sold separately rather than bundled, though PlayStation Plus cuts each game to £17.49 and each pass to £8.57 until August 6, bringing the full package to £52.12.
Activision later clarified on X that PS4 and PS5 players can matchmake together, and season-pass owners can still join non-owners except when playing DLC maps.
