Black Ops 6 Operators and Factions

At launch, Black Ops 6 introduces over 20 Operators, 11 of whom are allied to the Rogue Black Ops faction and 10 to Crimson One.

Factions Overview

Operators are split between two main factions, each with distinct goals. Some Operators are also affiliated with other groups within these factions.

Rogue Black Ops

Rogue Black Ops members are ex-CIA operatives who are on the run and hunted by their former employers. They seek to expose the infiltration of the CIA and clear their names, while staying alive. Without state support, they rely on makeshift equipment, help from underground criminals, and uneasy alliances with old enemies. They are aware of their hunters and refer to them as Crimson One.

Crimson One

Crimson One is a CIA-sanctioned operation tasked with hunting down the Rogue Black Ops. Led by Jackson Caine, this elite team has full access to the CIA’s resources and intel. Their mission is clear: track down and eliminate Adler, Woods, and their squad to end the threat they pose.
