Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Microtransactions Now Live

3.9
It was only a matter of time as microtransactions have been introduced in Treyarch’s Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. Just in time for the Holiday season, Call of Duty Points can be purchased with real money and used to buy Special Orders in the Black Market. COD Points can also be spent to purchase tiers in the Black Market’s Contraband menu so you can pay to skip the grind in those cases.

As for Special Orders, these are unique tier stream that are added and leveling along with the Contraband (and the currently active Halloween tier). Two Special Orders are currently available – Firebreak and Seraph – which provide their own sets of items. Once these Special Orders have been purchased, you have an unlimited amount of time to complete them by playing the game. However, you cannot level two Special Orders simultaneously.

Purchasing separate tiers will also unlock the items in the Special Orders tier stream. Each tier costs 100 COD Points to unlock. Currently, the microtransaction system is currently live on PlayStation 4. It will become available for Xbox One and PC within the next week or so.

You can purchase Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 for Xbox, PS4 and PC here.

FOV Haven't bought a Call of Duty since Black Ops 2. Don't regret it at all either considering every one after that has NOT been worth buying. The whole franchise is beyond dead and the people who buy it in hopes of it being better are beating a dead horse, giving these companies more money to produce re-skinned games year after year. I will not be supporting it. The days of Call of Duty are over, and those who still dwell on it most likely have never touched the classics for themselves. It's not a surprise that they added microtransactions. They weren't there in the beginning so people would get the idea that there weren't any, and then they swooped in and were like "oh yeah, hey, if you don't wanna grind you can give us your money and we'll make it look like you're good". It's sad to see what it's all become considering I was an avid fan of the games in the PS2 days and Xbox 360 days, but they dug their own grave and I can't really feel sorry for them. Money will do this to people, it's sad that they fell victim to it.


Call of duty is far from dead, and Microtransactions have been in for some years now and call of duty wasn't the first game to do it, 500million in sales is not dead, and the fact you think that you gain a competitive edge if you spend money on the Microtransactions right now tells me you have no idea what you're talking about LMAO

uwu About time. I thought the 1,000 COD Points I got upon purchase would be there, gathering dust. Anywho, microtransactions are a part of the videogame industry now; people need to begin to accept it and get with the times.

Glock- Activision has become such a money hungry disgusting company. Each year they roll in hundreds of millions of dollars and they produce the same thing. A washed up game...


Think your talking about EA, 500million ain't washed up


Yeah EA is bad but Activision single-handedly ruined Destiny and Destiny 2 because of their desire for more profit. Think I am lying? Its true Bungie are the developers but their publisher(Activision) had a big say on whats required in the game. Money Mongers.




So true man, I've only put about 20 hours into destiny 2 huge mistake.

Cant even play zombies without paying for features that should be part of the game. Buying this game was a big mistake.
