Two Treyarch classics arrive on PlayStation for the first time as native PS5/PS4 ports — campaign, multiplayer and Zombies included, with PS Plus members getting 50% off until 6 August.
Two of Treyarch's most fondly remembered shooters have quietly arrived on PlayStation. Call of Duty: Black Ops (2010) and Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 (2012) are out now as native PS5 and PS4 ports, available on PlayStation for the first time — and PS Plus members get 50% off either one until 6 August 2026. Here is exactly what has landed, what it costs, and the one catch worth knowing before you buy.
These are straight native ports, not remasters. The PS Store describes the first game plainly: experience the original Call of Duty: Black Ops, first released in 2010, now available on PS4 and PS5 for the first time. In other words, this is the 2010 and 2012 games running natively on current PlayStation hardware — no visual overhaul, no reworked systems, just the originals made playable on your console. Both were shadow-dropped, so there was no long marketing run-up: they simply appeared on the Store.
For a series that has spent recent years leaning almost entirely on its newest annual entry and live-service seasons, seeing the older Black Ops titles sold as standalone native ports is a notable shift. It also lands in a busy stretch on the Store: our PS Plus versus buying on sale guide is a useful companion if you're weighing whether to buy now or wait.
The pricing is confirmed on the Store listings:
| Item | Full Price | PS Plus Price (until 6 Aug 2026) |
|---|---|---|
| Black Ops (each) / Black Ops 2 (each) | £34.99 / $39.99 | £17.49 / $19.99 (50% off) |
| Season Pass (each, sold separately) | £25.99 / $29.99 | £8.57 / $9.89 (67% off) |
The 50% base-game discount and the 67% Season Pass discount are both tied to a PlayStation Plus subscription and both run until 6 August 2026. Any tier of PS Plus qualifies — if you're unsure which tier you're on or what each includes, our PS Plus tiers explained breakdown covers it. One thing we're not asserting as fact: some early coverage suggests the PS4 and PS5 versions may be cross-buy (one purchase covering both), but we couldn't confirm that from the official listing, so treat it as unconfirmed and check before assuming.
Here's the catch. Each purchase is the base game only — the campaign, multiplayer and Zombies — and does not include any of the original downloadable map packs or add-ons. Those live in the separately sold Season Passes above. So the sub-£18 PS Plus price gets you a complete, unabridged base game, but recreating the full "everything" version of either title means buying the Season Pass on top.
For PS5 owners this is a low-cost bit of preservation. Black Ops and Black Ops 2 are widely regarded as high points for the series' single-player and Zombies design, and having them run natively — rather than via backwards-compatibility workarounds — is genuinely welcome. At £17.49 / $19.99 with PS Plus, either is an easy pick-up for the campaigns and Zombies alone.
The sensible move is the usual one: confirm the price on your regional Store, decide whether you also want the Season Pass, and free up a little room first — our guide to freeing up PS5 storage helps there. And if you're browsing the Store anyway, note that these discounts overlap with the wider PlayStation Summer Sale 2026 now getting under way.
Call of Duty: Black Ops and Black Ops 2 are confirmed, out-now native PS5/PS4 ports of the 2010 and 2012 originals — full base games with campaign, multiplayer and Zombies, at £34.99 / $39.99 each or half that (£17.49 / $19.99) for PS Plus members until 6 August 2026. The one caveat is DLC: the map packs aren't included and sit behind separately sold Season Passes, discounted 67% for subscribers over the same window.
If you've been waiting for a clean, native way to replay two of Treyarch's best on PlayStation, this is it — just check your regional pricing, decide on the Season Pass, and keep the cross-buy question in the "unconfirmed until you see the listing" column. For first-party PlayStation news, the PlayStation Blog remains the first place to look.
