Since the release ofBlack Ops 6in October 2024,Call of Duty’s player count has continued to decline on Steam. There are sure to be a variety of reasons as to why players are abandoning the game just a few months intoBlack Ops 6’s life cycle, but many believe it is due to the ongoing hacking issues in bothWarzoneandBlack Ops 6’s Ranked Play mode.
