Activision and Treyarch have confirmed that Call of Duty: Black Ops will be playable in 3D on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 from its day of release on November 9, 2010.
The game will use active shutter technology on all three platforms, with the PC version utilising Nvidia's 3D Vision technology.
"Development of stereoscopic 3D began as an R&D project, but once we saw what the technology brought to the Call of Duty experience, what a great fit and how immersive it was, we knew that we had to develop it for Black Ops," said Treyarch studio head Mark Lamia.
"Aiming down the sights of your weapons, flying in helicopters, rappelling down mountains, and moving through highly detailed environments are just some of the awesome experiences you will have in 3D with Black Ops."
