Black Ops Cold War New Content, Round-Based Zombies Coming to Vanguard and More Announced

Black Ops Cold War New Content

It looks like Treyarch is going to be pretty busy this 2022! While the studio already released a new map and weapon last month, they are not stopping there. Black Ops Cold War new content has been announced, and that includes a new map, and more weapons!

According to Treyarch, they will be releasing an all-new ranged weapon in Black Ops Cold War that can be used in multiplayer, Zombies and Warzone. In addition to that, Black Ops’ Jungle map will be getting a remaster and will join the 6v6 multiplayer rotation as well. For the “not-too-distant-future,” Treyarch also plans to release a new melee weapon that can be used in multiplayer, Zombies and Warzone.

Black Ops Cold War New Content:

  • All-new ranged weapon (multiplayer, Zombies, Warzone)
  • Jungle map remaster
  • Melee weapon (multiplayer, Zombies, Warzone)
  • New Operator skins
  • Weapon Blueprints
  • Finishing Moves
  • Calling Cards
  • Charms
  • Emblems

Black Ops Cold War’s Zombies mode is alos getting an update. While there’s no new map incoming, there will still be updates to the experiences starting with Season 3! There’s a new secret being added for Zombies players to discover, and more.

On the Zombies front, while we don’t have plans to bring additional maps to Black Ops Cold War for all the reasons we laid out at the start of this blog, we’re delivering several updates to Outbreak and Onslaught starting with Season Three. We’ll also be adding a new secret for Zombies players to discover, particularly those who’ve conquered every Main Quest that Black Ops Cold War has to offer…

Later this month, we’re bringing Outbreak Collapse to all platforms. This limited-time mode is the spiritual successor to last October’s fan-favorite LTM, where players outlast increasingly intense waves for 10 minutes before attempting to exfil from a single Region. After choosing from one of two random Regions to infiltrate, you’ll drop in and fight to survive as the difficulty ramps up every two minutes. Hold out until the time limit, and you’ll race to the exfil point at the farthest possible position from your squad while a massive surge of zombies closes in on your position. Oh, and there’s an Orda that knows exactly where you are.

For an added challenge, we’re releasing the Abomination Elite enemy from “Forsaken” into the wilds of Outbreak with this update. Just in case you thought this beast wasn’t tough enough to take down on its own, try tackling the new HVT Abomination variant we’re also adding to the Eliminate Objective.

For Onslaught fans, we’re bringing several limited-time modes to players on all platforms this year. First up will be Onslaught Mystery Munitions, where players spawn in with a random weapon and equip a different, randomized weapon after every completed Surge. As the seasons continue, players can expect to see Onslaught Accelerated, Onslaught Diminishing Light, and Onslaught Elite arrive across all platforms for the first time. Each LTM offers its own unique Weapon Blueprint Challenge to complete, so don’t miss out on the opportunity to expand your collection!

Vanguard Zombies New Content:

Black Ops Cold War isn’t the only thing Treyarch is working on, as Vanguard’s Zombies mode is getting a new map, and a round-based mode! While a round-based Zombies mode is incoming, Treyarch wants to temper expectations and admits that this will take some time before it’s delivered to players.

Vanguard will also be getting a new Zombies map in Shi No Numa, which is a map first introduced in World at War.

Vanguard’s next Zombies map will be a reimagining of the full scope of “Shi No Numa” first introduced in Call of Duty®: World at War, freshly enhanced with an all-new Main Quest and Side Quests, a new area to explore, a new Wonder Weapon Quest, the classic Flogger trap and Electro-Shock Defenses, remastered Easter Eggs, new Pack-a-Punch Camos, and a new Dark Aether narrative for the map. Based on our current production schedule, we’re planning to bring this map to Vanguard after Season Three concludes, and we can’t wait to share more as we get closer to its release.

In Season Three, Vanguard Zombies will include support for the latest Battle Pass weapons, new Weapon Unlock Challenges, 20 new Season Challenges with unique Calling Card & XP bonus rewards, and additional bug and stability fixes for existing content. As we shift to round-based map development going forward, Sacrifice will be the final Objective added tothe mode. We’re also bringing updates to Black Ops Cold War Zombies during Season Three for players to jump into – more on that below.

Once we know when these are coming out, we’ll let our readers know.
