help with the f9 release mouse error

Hello tristen,

It sounds like your cloud gaming service is locking the mouse to the game window, which is why you’re seeing the "Press F9 to release mouse" message. Normally, pressing F9 should let your mouse move freely outside the game, but if it’s not working, there are a few things you can try.

You can try pressing Alt + Tab to switch out of the game and back in, which might reset the mouse control. Switching the game to windowed or borderless mode might also help.

If this only occurs with Black Ops 6, you should also reach out to Activison support for additional assistance.

Are you going to order Sony to do this with PlayStation too? If you want a keyboard and mouse, get a PC!! The majority of console players are happy with a controller. It's simpler than pressing A, F1, F9, Ctrl + shift + blah blah blah.

And to think if they just stayed with a regular Steve none of this would be happening...

Restart your PC and press the f11, f12 or f9 keys to enter recovery mode

Hey look DICE is involved.
