Activision rolls out the Black Ops 6 new free trial from October 28 to November 3, 2025. Players get full access to multiplayer, Zombies Directed Mode, and the Halloween event. The free trial launches the same day Battlefield 6 Season 1 begins, sparking competition talk.
Activision is opening a Black Ops 6 new free trial this week, and the timing looks deliberate. The free week starts on October 28, 2025 , the same day Battlefield 6 Season 1 goes live. That overlap has people talking.
What do you get in the trial?
The trial is a full taste of multiplayer. You can jump into 40 maps across 10 modes , and the Halloween event is included, so seasonal choices and cosmetics are available.

Zombies is included but only in Directed Mode , which is simpler and aimed at new players. Directed Mode limits rounds to about 15 and turns off some late- game activities, so it is useful for learning but not for high-level runs. Ranked Play is not available during the trial.

Why the timing matters?
This is not the first time Activision has run a free offer that clashes with a rival event. Putting the Black Ops 6 new free trial on the same day as Battlefield 6 Season 1 looks like a push to keep players in Call of Duty while Battlefield tries to grab headlines . Whether it is deliberate or not, it gives players a choice that week.
When to expect it to go live?
The promotion runs from October 28 to November 3, 2025 . Activision did not post an exact hour, but past trials often go live early morning Pacific Time.
If it lines up with Battlefield, you might see the trial go live around 8:00 am PT. Keep an eye on official Call of Duty channels for the exact start time.
