Black Ops 6 isn't even out yet, but it already has waves of hackers enjoying the title. A jailbroken PlayStation 4 build of Black Ops 6 allowed for tech-savvy players to smash into the game's Alpha build, testing out omnimovement and revealing one of the biggest leak lists that Call of Duty has ever faced.

It didn't take long, but this Alpha build already has hacks and mods running riot. Worried players are concerned that this will set the tone for a year of besmirched Black Ops gameplay.

Black Ops 6 leakers already have flying hacks

Black Ops 6 movement is set to really ramp up the skill gap, as players will be keen to take advantage of the omnidirectional dives while soaring through the air like Buzz Lightyear with an AK47.

But already, the "flying" and diving have been taken advantage of, and players have added wings to the operators of this Alpha build.

Leaked footage shows modders implementing low-gravity boosts for players, allowing them to easily glide through the air like Simone Biles, tumbling, tucking, and rolling in whichever way they choose.

 

The hacks don't set a good precedent for the rest of Black Ops 6's tenure, already affecting the quality of the game, just as hackers and cheaters ruined Modern Warfare 3's prospects of being a top-tier Call of Duty game.

Call of Duty's anti-cheat is currently being pushed to the limit as it tries to combat smurfing and boosting by clamping down on third-party apps that determine the level of lobbies in Warzone. Now, omnimovement means the attacks of hackers on CoD appear to be coming from all new angles.

Black Ops 6 isn't even out yet, but already, it's clear RICOCHET really does have a job on its hands this year. Good luck Treyarch, it feels like you're going to need it.
