Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War editions How do upgrades work?
This is, to be quite blunt, a complicated topic. We have a full breakdown of what the differences are in the cross-generation Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War editions, but the simple version is that if you want to play the next-gen version of the game, you really are better off buying a cross-gen copy.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is set to release on November 13 on PS5, PS4, PC, Xbox Series X and Xbox One. The campaign promises a thrilling tale of player choice and espionage, while multiplayer is returning alongside the famous Zombies mode.
Simple and basic
This is the standard copy of the game on Xbox One, with no extra frills. You'll still be able to play it on your Xbox Series X but it won't take advantage of the new hardware.
A little more special
This is the standard version of the game for the Xbox Series X. This version takes advantage of the new system with hardware ray-tracing and heavily reduced load times, but it can also be played in an Xbox One.
Two copies, one price
The cross-gen edition of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is exactly what it sounds like: you get one copy for the Xbox One then another copy on Xbox Series X. It's essentially the digital version of the physical Xbox Series X version.
Nothing missed
The Ultimate Edition includes the cross-gen edition of the game alongside tons of extras, including the battle pass and 20 tier skips. Grab this if you're going hard in Warzone.
