Call of Duty won April Fools' Day in gaming with insane Black Ops 7 map

The world of gaming has been full of April Fools' Day pranks and stunts as people have been doing their best to come up with the most outrageous content they can.

This year, it snowed in GTA Online, Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher developer CD Projekt Red announced a horse controller and PlayStation announced Project Playmo, a controller that can play games for you.

Now these are all great in their own way - but there's one that seems to have beaten the lot.

And it's a new, completely chaotic brainrot-inspired map introduced in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 by Treyarch.

Activision introduced a new playlist called 'Get Ready With Me' which has the smallest map in series' history. It's literally just a bedroom.

Players spawn in and are immediately head-to-head against each other. In free-for-all, the first to 67 eliminations wins.

And it's gone down incredibly well on social media.

One shared a clip of gameplay and said: "LMFAO."

Another joked: "Knowing COD players, this will end up being loved and begged for to stay 😂"

The viral clips kept on coming.

One posted: "Good way to celebrate April Fools in BO7 lol."

Another declared: "This actually funny asf. 😭"

One said: "I loaded up just to try this and it's just as fun as you can imagine. Good stuff @Treyarch."

Another posted: "New Dark Ops = get a nuke on bedroom."

One said: "I love you for this LMAO. Kind of hope this stays in cuz it's funny."

And another posted: "Would pay to watch pro players play a game of TDM in CDL on this map."
