How to start Endgame in Black Ops 7

To start Endgame in Black Ops 7 you need to complete the first 11 Co-op Campaign missions. Once you've done this, you'll gain access to Endgame, another PvE mode. This mode can house one to 36 players at a time, so it is possible to solo it (though be prepared for tougher battles if so.)

Also, it's worth remembering that completing objectives and missions in Endgame will also contribute to the overall global player XP count.

Endgame recommended area combat rating

In Endgame you have access to the entire map, but the map is split up into areas of different difficulty tiers. Here are all the recommended ratings for each area of the map:

• Zone One
• Zone Two
• Zone Three
• Zone Four

Zone One

The recommended rating for zone one is non existent. This means that it's a good choice for beginners and experienced players alike. Zone one is the south-east corner of the map. This zone covers the the Old Arsenal, Car Factory, Water Treatment and Cliff Town.

Zone Two

The recommended rating for zone two is 10. This means it's slightly more difficult than the first zone, but still is doable if you're at a lower rating. Zone two covers the Listening Post, Chop Shop, Pier District, Heliport, Colosseum and Excavation Site.

Zone Three

The recommended rating for zone three is 30 as this zone is quite a bit harder than its predecessors. Zone three covers the Winery, Resorts, Residences, Casino, High Town, Golf Club, Trinity Stadium and Coastal Security.

Zone Four

The recommended rating for zone four is 45 and this is the hardest zone on the map, it's also quite a lot smaller than the rest of the zones (which can be a good or bad thing depending on how you look at it). This zone covers Low Town, the Firing Range and the Fort.

Black Ops 7 Endgame Skill Tracks

As you progress through an Endgame match and increase your Combat Rating, you'll be able to choose Skill Tracks (or Skills). When this happens, you'll be given two choices but you can only pick one of them.
