Nuketown 24/7 (known as Nuketown 2025 24/7 in Black Ops II) was a special event gametype version of Team Tactical featured in Call of Duty: Black Ops and Call of Duty: Black Ops II . Every match takes place in Nuketown for Black Ops and Nuketown 2025 for Black Ops II respectively, as the name suggests. This mode can hold 6-12 players in a lobby (6-10 on the Wii version, due to maximum online support can only hold 10 without RAM
limitations or lag). This gametype is essentially a Nuketown-only mode, combining the gametype options from Team Tactical and Free for All gametypes, with a maximum of 2 6-player teams (5-player teams on the Wii version). It has taken place on every Double XP weekend for Black Ops with the exception of one, featuring Firing Range instead. It was available from Black Ops II's launch. It is currently playable in Double XP weekends in Black Ops II.
Nuketown 24/7 is currently the only gametype where a player can play a 12 person Free-For-All match outside the PC version. Also, because of the nature of the playlist, this is the only FFA match where parties are allowed, however the Tactical Insertion is NOT allowed, following the normal set-up.
As the Double XP weekend is ended via an update, players that started playing before the Double XP weekend ended are still able to access Nuketown 24/7, until they turn off their consoles, thus updating the game once they turn their consoles on again. This gamemode is always very popular with the Black Ops community (even more so than Team Deathmatch) due to its limited availability and the ease at which players can gain large amounts of kills.
PC servers always have this game mode, even without special events.
On the Xbox 360, Party Chat is allowed during Search and Destroy and Free for All matches, unlike normal Search and Destroy and Free for All.
As of February 10, Firing Range is used to host the Nuketown 24/7 playlist.
In Nuketown 2025 24/7, some game modes have been removed from the Black Ops version. The removed game modes are Search and Destroy, Free for All and Capture the Flag. However, these game modes were used in the launch weekend event. Also, Hardpoint has been added to the gamemode.
