BO7 is a vast and unwieldy beast, with Jamie scoring it a 7/10, noting its balance between strong multiplayer and zombies offerings, and a disappointing campaign.

The human colony on Tau Ceti IV has been abandoned for half a century, as far as anyone can tell. The only exports leaving the planet are those nabbed by Runners in mechanical bodies, like fruit pickers at the end of the universe.
