Black Ops 2 Coming This April?
April 20, 2012 in Games
Despite how hard Treyarch and Activision have worked to try and keep everything about Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 a complete secret, they’ve failed pretty impressively. First we found out that Black Ops 2 really is happening, and then we found out a huge amount of information about the multiplayer mode from a recent leak. Now we have a new possible leak to report. YouTube member CoDInform says that he came across the Black Ops 2 logo along with a supposed release date for the new game—April 28th. We don’t know where the logo was stumbled across, only that that’s the user who announced its discovery.
Once the information (or misinformation as it may well be) was circulated on the official CoD forums, it was pulled down straight away—standard procedure with leaks from what we’ve observed. We don’t have any confirmation yet as to whether the information is real; there has been no official comment from Treyarch or Activision. Good indicators that this might be real include the fact that April 28th was the release date for the original Black Ops game and the URL of the supposed image revealing the date matches the structure we’d expect to see based off of other Activision logo URLs. We do have to admit however that the release date of April 28th is perhaps a bit earlier than what we’d been expecting earlier. While we have long been confident that the game will come out this year, we were envisioning a bit later in the year. It’s certainly possible that April 28th is the real release date, however, especially in light of the first Black Ops game coming out then, so who knows—it could be sooner than we think. Time to start setting aside money for pre-order!
