Call Of Duty: Black Ops 7 Won't Let You Transfer Black Ops 6 Operators, Skins, Or Weapons

Activision has announced that Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 will not allow players to transfer their Operators, Operator Skins, and Weapons from the previous installment, Black Ops 6. The company stated that Black Ops 7 needs to "feel authentic to Call of Duty and its setting," which is why the carry-forward feature will not be available. However, double XP tokens and GobbleGums will continue to carry forward, as Activision recognizes the importance of players' time and progression. This decision comes after Activision previously said the Carry Forward program would return for Black Ops 7, but with some exceptions. Activision acknowledged the ongoing conversations about the "identity of Call of Duty" and how the perception is that the franchise has "drifted from what made Call of Duty unique in the first place." The company stated that they take this feedback seriously and understand the desire for a more "immersive, intense, visceral and in many ways grounded" experience. This announcement is made against the backdrop of the upcoming release of Battlefield 6, which has emphasized the importance of keeping the game's multiplayer skins "grounded" and authentic to the franchise.
