Alleged Treyarch Fired Employee Drops Details on Black Ops 4
There is no way to verify the accuracy of this story, but a person who claims to be an ex Treyarch employee turned up on Reddit recently and dropped some tidbits about Black Ops 4. The poster claimed to have been a QA tester that was fired; the original thread has been deleted since the leaks were offered up reports Comicbook.
The most significant tidbit that the poster claims is that Black Ops 4 originally had a co-op campaign. The source claims that the campaign mode was worked on until mid-2017 before being scrapped to focus on multiplayer and Zombies modes. Details on that alleged campaign mode were scarce in the post, but the poster claims that five different missions had been created and the campaign would have been a 2v2 co-op race to finish the missions.
While many lament the loss of a single player campaign in Black Ops 4, it sounds as if the campaign it almost got would have been very different than gamers are used to in the franchise. Most of the post were details on secrets, mysteries, and easter eggs in Zombies mode.
All of those tidbits were validated in the game lending weight to the claims about the campaign mode. If the poster wasn’t what they claimed to be, how would they have known about all the verified Zombies details?
