The story takes place across two separate arcs, one recounting events in the 1980s, and the other following characters in the year 2025.

The 1980s story arc follows the exploits of Alex Mason, fighting in a proxy war in Angola whilst suffering from a disorder as a result of his
brainwashing in Vorkuta. Viktor Reznov will reportedly return in this section of the game, and it has been suggested that his friendship
with Mason will continue to be explored.
This portion of the game chronicles the rise of Raul Menendez, the primary antagonist of the game in the 2025 chapter.



In 2025, a cyberattack targets the Chinese economy, crippling the Chinese Stock Exchange. In retaliation for this, the Chinese government
has banned the export of rare earth elements, sparking a "Second Cold War" between the United States and the People's Republic of China.
During an invasion of Los Angeles, David Mason - the son of Alex Mason - and a team from the United States Navy Special Warfare
Development Group must escort the American and French presidents to safety as they come under attack from automated weapons and
Menendez's men.
In the time since the 1980s, Raul Menendez has styled himself as the leader of the Cordis Die, a populist faction hailed as the champions
of victims of economic inequality. In his role as their leader, Menendez has taken control of the "keys" to the armed forces, hijacking the
United States' automated weapons systems and turning them against their masters.

Meanwhile, it is revealed that Frank Woods has survived his encounter with Lev Kravchenko and escaped from Hanoi. He has taken
refuge in a secret location known as "The Vault" and has anticipated Menendez's rise to prominence. Woods serves as the narrator for
the 2025 story arc.



Departing from the notorious linear campaign style of past Call of Duty games, Treyarch has decided to take a non-linear and sandbox
approach to Call of Duty: Black Ops II, (meaning no back-to-back missions with the same outcome every time replayed) instead the old
linear style has been dropped in favor of "a more open ended campaign that relies heavily on player choice."
There will be significant points within the single-player campaign where the player is essentially given control over the course the game
will take. It won't be a simple "A, B or C" choice either, it will be more expansive than that, for example, not protecting a certain character
won't lead to a mission failure, instead it will change the course the game will take.



To help with the departure from a linear campaign are a set of special missions dubbed Strike Force. These missions are sandbox,
and play similarly to a Real Time Strategy game. The player can assume the role of a commander, command ground forces, and on top
of this, there will be the ability to go back to the traditional first-person and take part in the action themselves. The player gets to have
a chance of taking control of many different warfare technology such as unmanned vehicles, jets and robotic automobiles. If the
player dies in a Strike Force mission, the story will go on, keeping the record of deaths rather than loading to the last saved checkpoint.
The missions will go on to change the story, even change Menendez's plans. By the time the cold war ends the player will see that they
have made the results different.
