Treyarch recently announced multiplayer beta dates forCall of Duty: Black Ops 6. Though its exact content is unknown, players can try out new mechanics like Omnimovement and Intelligent Movement. Unfortunately, they won’t be able to turn off the former, as confirmed by associate design director Matt Scronce.
“Omnimovement is a core foundational feature that cannot be disabled by a player,” he said in the first episode of the Call of Duty Podcast (transcription by GameSpot). However, the team is working to ensure one can “hold their own” if they don’t use it. “We’ve been conscious of ensuring we’re not widening the skill gap too much. If you want to slow down, you can and still be successful. You just may not look as cool. And that’s fine.”
As for the new Intelligent Movement, it provides three assist settings for Sprint, Mantle and Crouch. You can choose whether to use these, but they’re each tunable to one’s preference.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 launches on October 25th for Xbox One, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and PC. It features a new campaign, 16 maps in multiplayer, the return of the classic Prestige system, a new Zombies experience and more. The open beta runs from September 6th to 9th, but pre-orders and Game Pass members can receive early access from August 30th to September 4th.
