Black Ops 6 Won't Be Released In Kuwait, Preorders Canceled And Refunds Issued
Kuwait has denied the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 in the country, and in response, Activision is cancelling all preorders. Refunds are available at the original point of purchase.
In a statement, Activision said the game "has not been approved for release" in Kuwait, and as such, it won't be available on October 25 in the region. "We remain hopeful that local authorities will reconsider, and allow players in Kuwait to enjoy this all-new experience in the Black Ops series," Activision said.
