Black Ops Cold War leaks reveal League Play mode returning TreyarchReputable Call of Duty leaker \u2018TheMW2Ghost\u2019 has claimed that an in-game challenge in Black Ops Cold War shows that League Play will make a long-awaited return when the full game drops in November. Despite it\u2019s immense popularity in Black Ops 2, League Play has not yet returned in a Call of Duty game. While we\u2019ve seen many Ranked modes \u2013 Black Ops 3\u2019s Arena or Black Ops 4\u2019s World League Play \u2013 the fan-favorite competitive mode has not featured in some games, including 2019\u2019s Modern Warfare. However, recent leaks from TheMW2Ghost suggest that an in-game challenge, similar to the one that was completed on October 17 to earn an extra day of the open Beta, will make way to reveal a League Play mode in the full game. The leaker claimed that an in-game challenge, found in the files of Black Ops Cold War, is heavily indicative of a League Play mode featuring, either at launch or as post-launch content. \u201cThere\u2019s a Challenge in Black Ops Cold War which is for League Play,\u201d they tweeted. \u201cWTF, some weird\/cool challenges for Zombies too.\u201d While this is not confirmed \u2013 or even unlocked \u2013 at the time of writing, the very reference to League Play in the game\u2019s files is very good news for fans of the competitive mode. It\u2019s worth encouraging a degree of caution though. Past Call of Duty games have had Ranked modes confirmed as coming post-launch, only for the mode to never materialise. A number of CoD games, such as 2019\u2019s Modern Warfare, have settled for a Call of Duty League playlist, rather than a fully fledged Ranked mode. Treyarch on a Black Ops Cold War Ranked mode Back in early October, David Vonderhaar was asked about the possibility of a Ranked Play mode. He responded: \u201cHave you seen a Black Ops game without a competitive agenda?\u201d On an Xfinity stream today, @DavidVonderhaar was asked about Ranked. He says \u201chave you seen a Black Ops game without a competitive agenda?\u201d More info to come soon. No ranked mode in beta. \u2014 CharlieIntel (@charlieINTEL) October 8, 2020 What League Play would mean for SBMM is also up in the air. Many have criticized the seemingly high levels of skill-based matchmaking in the Beta, but believe a Ranked playlist could mean that SBMM is reduced in public matches. We\u2019ll have to wait and see on all fronts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
