Fans of Call of Duty are urging for campaign co-op to return in upcoming releases in the franchise. Although there are several options for playing with friends in the COD franchise, recent campaigns have only been available for single-player play.

In many of the most recent COD games, the campaign has been treated almost as an optional extra. The absence of a campaign mode in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 in 2018 made it the initial and only title in the series to hold that discrepancy. Despite this, players have generally enjoyed the campaigns over the years since they offer a perfect balance of cinematic action and serious stories.

According to a Reddit post, fans think campaign co-op would be a fantastic addition to upcoming COD games. Sadly, Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 marked the first time that campaign co-op has been missing from the franchise since its debut in World at War in 2008.

It’s unquestionably a specialized element, but because of its relatively low number of appearances, designers have hardly ever had the opportunity to build upon it and integrate it fully into the Call of Duty campaign experience. Given that other franchises have successfully used campaign co-op in the past, a capable creator could undoubtedly make greater use of the feature than has been demonstrated till now.

There is generally some kind of co-op feature that enables players to play with friends in COD games, even those that don’t offer story co-op. This has often been the enduring COD Zombies game mode in Treyarch’s titles, which has expanded significantly since its debut in World at War.

In the meantime, Infinity Ward has focused on Spec-Ops, a set of cooperative missions that are distinct from the campaign selections. Although it appears that the COD series’ creators are devoted to producing top-notch campaigns for some time to come, it is presently unknown whether campaign co-op will return to the game.

In case you missed it!
