The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A relentless, high-octane rush that blends visceral gunplay with tactical movement and a brooding sense of conspiracy.

What players say

Players praise the zombies mode and custom workshop content, but strongly warn that multiplayer is unsafe due to unpatched RCE exploits and account-resetting cheaters. The campaign story is widely dismissed as incoherent. Many say the game was abandoned by Treyarch and recommend using a third-party client like T7 for safety.
