World First Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Nuke Achieved Before the Beta Even Launches [IGN]
Streamer JustHazzardous, who claims to have pulled off a similar achievement in Modern Warfare 3, posted a clip of what looks like Black Ops 6’s very first nuke, which he recorded live from Activision’s Call of Duty NEXT event. While it’s unconfirmed how many kills it takes to reach a nuke in Black Ops 6, nukes can typically be achieved after gaining 25 kills without dying.

The imagery of the nuke is as intense as you’d expect, with even the player character catching fire and burning up, Terminator 2-style, in a brand new animation ahead of a massive fireball. You can watch the video of Black Ops 6’s first nuke in the video embedded above.
Treyard Studios acknowledge the achievement on its own social media account, congratulating JustHazzardous on getting Black Ops 6’s first nuke.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is the latest entry in Treyarch’s long-running subseries, shifting the timeline to around the original Gulf War in the early 1990s.
