This specific "Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War" title was reported as the 2020 entry in the first-person shooter franchise. It is the latest iteration of the Black Ops sub-series from Raven Software and Treyarch.

Its campaign brings players to a 1980s setting, with visuals, weaponry, and certain game mechanics being true to that era. According to Game Spot, the freebie will be the Cross-Gen bundle. Thus, the PS5 and PS4 versions are included.
