Black Ops 7 launch times for the full game

Black Ops 7 launches at midnight local time on November 14 for PlayStation, Xbox, and Xbox on PC, which means the game will be available at 3 AM PT on November 13, but you can only play that early if you live in New Zealand (more on that later). Battle.net and Steam users, meanwhile, can start playing at 9 PM PT on November 13, which works out to midnight Eastern on November 14.

The New Zealand trick

Given that New Zealand is so far ahead of people in the US and UK, you might be wondering if it’s possible to trick your console or PC into thinking you live in the country where there are more sheep than people. This trick worked with Black Ops 6, and may work again with Black Ops 7.

People should know, however, that Microsoft does not want you to do this. In any event, here’s a rundown of how it should work.

Xbox:

Power up console and head to the Settings

Select “System”

Select “Language and Location”

Change your location to New Zealand

Restart your console

Load up Black Ops 7 to start playing

Xbox on PC:

Download the Xbox on PC app

Change your PC region to New Zealand

Change your Call of Duty account to New Zealand.

Ensure changes are saved

Boot the game

PlayStation:

Go to the Call of Duty website

Click on your profile and select “Basic Info”

Enter a New Zealand address

Make sure the changes save and load up Black Ops 7

Game Pass

Black Ops 7 will be available at launch on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. While those two subscription services recently saw major price hikes, most major retailers are sticking with the old prices, so you don’t actually have to pay more if you buy a membership right now. Game Pass Ultimate remains $20 at GameStop, Amazon, Best Buy, and others.
