New Maps Lineup Revealed for Black Ops 7 Multiplayer Launch
Today, Treyarch and Raven Software unveiled the full slate of multiplayer maps coming to Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 at launch. The list includes fresh battlegrounds, returning fan-favorites, and several “Beta”-stage maps signaling early access for fine-tuning. Here’s everything we know so far.
The Map Roster
At launch, Black Ops 7 will offer 18 multiplayer maps, including 16 maps for 6v6 play and 2 large-scale maps for the new Skirmish mode.
Here are the maps confirmed:

Key Takeaways
Number & Scale: There are 16 6v6 maps at launch, which is 4 more than Black Ops 6 (12 at Launch) and ties Modern Warfare III for most during the CDL era.
Variety & Nostalgia: The mix of new maps and remakes ensures both fresh maps that could break into the competitive map pool and a nod to fan favorites. Players who loved BO2 will look forward to revisiting some of the best maps from the past in Raid, Hijacked, and Express.
Beta Maps: Some of the newly introduced maps are tagged as “(Beta)”, meaning they may undergo changes based on early player feedback.
Competitive Implications: With 16 core 6v6 maps, competitive modes will have plenty of variety. Remakes may see meta shaping around memory and prior experience, while new maps will force teams to adapt.
What’s Next
The game officially launches on November 14, 2025.
A multiplayer beta begins in early October and includes two weekends. The first beta weekend is October 2nd through the 5th, then the second starts October 5th through the 8th.
