Call of Duty is a big deal every year, but perhaps never as much as this one, the first year that a new CoD will launch on Game Pass. Today, Microsoft showed off Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 at the Xbox Games Showcase, revealing lots of cool gameplay footage and details. We also learned how the cooperative Zombies mode will work - always the most important information for co-op enthusiasts like us.
Here are the first official details for Black Ops 6's Zombies mode:
Round-Based Zombies is back! Black Ops 6 will launch with two brand-new Round-Based Zombie maps – Terminus and Liberty Falls – and a continuation of the intriguing and terrifying Dark Aether narrative that was started in Black Ops Cold War. Hordes of the undead are set to rampage through these brand-new locations, each offering countless hours of fast-paced action where power-ups are plentiful, but you’re never more than a few seconds away from being overwhelmed and devoured!
For newcomers, Zombies is Treyarch’s unique take on a cooperative player experience where you face off against vast mobs of zombified creatures, with the bulk being the recently deceased, now animated due to strange, eldritch forces. Expect every location you visit to be packed with powerful weapons, new and returning power-ups, a pantheon of revolting entities to face, and a host of secrets and easter eggs to discover.
The gameplay reveal trailer doesn't show Zombies mode, but it still provides a good look at the game's impressive graphics and lavish campaign mode.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will arrive on Xbox, PlayStation, and Steam on October 24. It will cost $69.99. The $99.99 Vault Edition will include: Hunters vs. Hunted Operator Pack, Mastercraft Collection, BlackCell (1 Season), and GobbleGum Pack for Zombies.
