  • This trick to skip the feature may be a welcome surprise for players annoyed by post-match gloating.

Those frustrated by the winner's circle in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 matches are in luck, as there is actually a way to skip this feature completely. This skip was recently discovered by a player, who shared the news with the rest of the Black Ops 6 community. While popular, the feature has proven to be somewhat controversial since it was first introduced, likely prompting some to use this new trick in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 appears to be another hit for developer Treyarch and publisher Activision, with fans especially pleased with the game's story and Zombies modes. One of the major keys to Black Ops 6 is movement, with the game featuring some of the fastest-paced gameplay of the entire franchise. Black Ops 6 also features an immense amount of customization options, which is even reflected at the end of matches in the winner's circle. However, for those annoyed by its inclusion, there is a way to avoid seeing other players in the winner's circle entirely, with the solution lying in the Black Ops 6 menu itself.

Reddit user Soggy-Pouch shared a clip to the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 community, informing others that it's actually possible to skip the winner's circle moment at the end of multiplayer matches. Players simply need to head to the "social" tab in Black Ops 6 and back out to skip seeing any other players in the winner's circle. This feature has been part of the brand since its inclusion in Black Ops 3 but has proven to be somewhat controversial among the Call of Duty community.

Player Discovers Way to Skip Winner's Circle in Black Ops 6

While not game-changing by any means, this will likely come as a welcome surprise to those who get annoyed watching others gloat about their victory post-match. The winner's circle allows the top three players to show off their operator, as well as their player profile, including their calling card and emblem. If they choose to, players can also emote. However, Black Ops 6 takes a departure from previous games, limiting players to just one emote instead of unlimited.

Black Ops 6's season 1 content update rolls out on November 14, which will feature several new items, features, and tweaks to check out. Along with Black Ops 6's season 1 update also comes the next iteration of Call of Duty: Warzone. A new Zombies experience is expected to drop sometime in the middle of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's season 1 as well, with plenty more content on the horizon going into 2025.

Forced to go rogue. Hunted from within. This is Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

Developed by Treyarch and Raven, Black Ops 6 is a spy action thriller set in the early 90s, a period of transition and upheaval in global politics, characterized by the end of the Cold War and the rise of the United States as a single superpower. With a mind-bending narrative, and unbound by the rules of engagement, this is signature Black Ops.

The Black Ops 6 Campaign provides dynamic moment-to-moment gameplay that includes a variety of play spaces with blockbuster set pieces and action-packed moments, high-stakes heists, and cloak-and-dagger spy activity.

In a best-in-class Multiplayer experience, players will test their skills across 16 new maps at launch, including 12 core 6v6 maps and 4 Strike maps that can be played 2v2 or 6v6.

Black Ops 6 also marks the epic return of Round-Based Zombies, the fan-favorite mode where players will take down hordes of the undead in two brand-new maps at launch. Post-launch, players can look forward to even more exciting maps and groundbreaking experiences dropping into both Multiplayer and Zombies.
