Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 veers away from the traditional style of singleplayer campaign that the franchise is known for, opting instead to go for a full, co-op campaign experience meant for four players. While it still follows a mission-based structure, it features some more RPG-like elements such as weapon rarities, power-ups, and abilities, not to mention the weird and often-times wacky setting. The Black Ops 7 campaign thankfully doesn't overstay it's welcome, and if you just want to get some rewards for use in multiplayer, here's what you can expect from the campaign.

How Long is the Black Ops 7 Campaign?

For a casual player, the BO7 campaign should take roughly 4–6 hours to complete, but if you try to play through each mission as quickly as possible without dying, then you're likely to finish it all in around 3 hours. It's pretty short for a Call of Duty campaign, though the 3-hour completion time we mentioned involves skipping unnecessary fights and leaving the Black Ops 7 campaign collectibles behind.

It's also worth noting that BO7 does not have a selectable difficulty. Instead, the difficulty will automatically adjust itself according to how many players are in the squad. Playing with a full group won't necessarily make the campaign fly by any faster,

The Black Ops 7 campaign puts players in the boots of David Mason and his team of JSOC operators as they try to get to the bottom of Raul Menendez's mysterious return. It all goes south when the Guild inadvertently releases a bioweapon throughout Avalon that causes serious hallucinations.

Your actions in the campaign also affect your overall account. By that, we mean you can level up your account and your weapons while playing through the BO7 campaign. Defeating enemies and completing objectives will earn you some XP, and when you complete a mission, you'll get a boon of 5000 XP. It's not the fastest way to level up in Black Ops 7, but it makes sure that if you decide to do the campaign first, you'll have enough new weapons and attachments to compete with other people in multiplayer.

Finishing the campaign also unlocks Endgame, a large-scale PvE mode set in Avalon where players are free to explore the map, complete missions, and earn even more XP for account progression. It's very similar to the DMZ mode from Modern Warfare 2, except Endgame is strictly PvE only.

Apart from XP, Black Ops 7 campaign rewards additionally include weapon blueprints, charms, operators, and other cosmetics.
