Find out what time Black Ops 7 is releasing for your specific time zone.
We're just a few short days away from the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, and the time to get ready for launch is dwindling. Before Nov. 14 does come around, you'll want to make sure that you know exactly when the game launches for your time zone.
Like in previous years, Black Ops 7 will use a local midnight rollout for its launch across a majority of platforms. This means that the game will only become playable when it's midnight local time in your time zone (with a few exceptions). However, there are some important things to know about the release times of Black Ops 7, especially if you're on PC.
Below, you can see the release time for Black Ops 7 across every time zone and platform.
Black Ops 7 release time for all time zones
To put it simply, Black Ops 7 will release at midnight local time for players on PlayStation, Xbox, and those using the Xbox app on PC. This means when the clock strikes midnight wherever you're located in the world, you can start playing Black Ops 7 if you've purchased it. The only exceptions to this rule are with the Central Time Zone and the Pacific Time Zone.
In CST and PST, the game will be released at midnight in the Eastern Time Zone. So, if you're located in California, for example, Black Ops 7 will launch at 9 PM PST if you're playing on PlayStation, Xbox, or using the Xbox app on PC.
With that out of the way, let's get into the weeds and discuss the release times for players on Steam and Battle.Net. If you're on either of these platforms on PC, then Black Ops 7 will release at midnight in the Eastern Time Zone. It doesn't matter if you're located in Australia, Japan, or the United Kingdom; if you're playing on Steam or Battle.Net, you can't access Black Ops 7 until midnight EST. However, you can attempt to get around that restriction and play Black Ops 7 early on Xbox and PlayStation by using the New Zealand trick.
If you don't use the New Zealand trick, here are the exact release times for players on Steam and Battle.Net:
As you can see from the map, Black Ops 7 will launch at wildly different times across the globe on Steam and Battle.Net. If you're in the Central or Pacific Time Zone, though, nothing changes, as you'll still get to play at midnight EST.
And that covers everything you need to know about when Black Ops 7 releases for every time zone. If you're looking to gain an edge in Black Ops 7 before or after launch, make sure to check out our guide about redeeming Double XP codes through Monster Energy drinks.
