The Call of Duty: Black Ops franchise has a long and complex timeline that charts a course through our own real world history, into a high-tech near future that’s… very different to our own. With 6 mainline games and a couple of handheld spin-offs, the series has a surprisingly dense timeline for you to wrap your head around. With Black Ops 6 further expanding the timeline, there’s no better time to dive back into the lore of the series than now.
