Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is a 2024 US first person shooter published by Activision The game was banned by Kuwait government censors in October 2024. The government has reportedly blocked the game from being sold in stores or downloaded
digitally. In a statement from publishers Activision, the company confirmed the news: Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has not been approved for release in Kuwait. At this time, the title will not be available for
release in region. As a result, all pre-orders in Kuwait will be cancelled and refunded to the original point of purchase. We remain hopeful that local authorities will reconsider, and allow players in Kuwait to enjoy this all-new experience in the Black
Ops series. Gamers who had pre-ordered the game will receive full refunds, but the disappointment remains high. It's not the first time Kuwait has blocked a game, with previous examples including The Sims: FreePlay and Dragon's
Dogma 2, highlighting the stricter regulations on gaming in the country. The reason behind Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 being blocked in Kuwait hasn't been officially revealed, but it's likely due to its focus on the Gulf War and Saddam
Hussein's invasion of Kuwait in 1990, which is a sensitive topic for the region. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will be available elsewhere on October 25 for the PS4, Xbox One, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. |
