COD Black Ops 7 will require Secure Boot, tests start in the current game

Activision’s Ricochet security system for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 demands that players enable TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module) and Secure Boot before they can play the game. This feature is being introduced early in the current version to identify any potential issues and provide players with ample time to make the necessary adjustments.

When the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Oops 7 launches later this year, it will necessitate TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module version 2.0) and Secure Boot for PC gameplay. These hardware-based security measures are an essential aspect of our anti-cheat initiatives, and we encourage all players to ensure their systems are compatible before the release date.

For Season 5 of Black Ops 6, players with systems that don’t meet the requirements will receive in-game alerts. If you find yourself in this situation, Activision has provided a guide to help you adjust your settings to play the game smoothly.

Activision stressed that they are taking a cautious approach, closely watching as they implement this new feature. Their goal is to enhance security and preserve the user experience, all while minimizing any potential performance issues.

As the requirement for anti-cheat mechanisms at the hardware level increases, it’s becoming standard practice for competitive gamers in Fortnite tournaments, Valorant, and the upcoming Battlefield 6. They all insist on such measures for fair play.

Black Ops 7 will be fully revealed at Gamescom 2025 later this month.
