A few Call of Duty campaigns have had co-op, so that change for Black Ops 7 is not entirely new. However, the vast majority of campaigns have had adjustable difficulties, but that is not going to be the case with Black Ops 7. This is an intentional feature designed to go hand-in-hand with the addition of co-op play.

Black Ops 7's campaign looks like it could be a bold step forward for the franchise, but there's something I'm very worried about.

Unlike past Call of Duty games, this year's Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 will not allow players to choose a difficulty level for the campaign. Associate creative director Miles Leslie said that the difficulty scale for Black Ops 7 is "baked in" as opposed to being something a player can choose.
