Blog Tag: Bo6 Zombies Mode New Features

As the latest game in Call of Duty series, Black Ops 6 was originally released on October 25 2024, and season 1 was naturally launched in the game. Now that the craze of Season 1 has gradually faded, you will experience the latest Season 2 on January 28 this year!

Although Season 2 has not been released yet, CoD Black Ops 6 has released some update information, many of which are related to the most popular Zombies mode. In fact, Zombies mode does not appear in Black Ops 6 firstly, but it has already appeared in World at War, but BO6 has adjusted and improved the mode to make it more attractive.

In order to make Season 2 perform better, some new content has been added to Zombies mode, including the new map Tomb, new features, and the new SMG that may return.

You can wait until the new map is officially launched to select it in Black Ops 6 Bot Lobbies for worry-free exploration, but you need to know about the new features and weapons in advance, otherwise it may hinder your official experience in Season 2 Zombies mode. So we will introduce both aspects to you.

New Zombies Features Coming In Season 2

Challenge Tracking

Besides Zombies mode, this change is expected to be also applied to multiplayer mode. After adjustment, you will track up to 10 Calling Card challenges and 10 Camo challenges in Zombies mode manually, making it easier than before to track your ongoing challenges.

If you have fewer than 10 challenges to track, your most recent challenge will be directly displayed in the corresponding position. In addition, the tracked or nearly completed challenges displayed at the top of your game screen will appear in the lobby and options menu at the same time, providing you with more convenience.

Co-op Pause

This new feature allows the captain to pause the game in a team-based match to re-strategize or give you more time to rest and resupply in long rounds. In fact, players have been asking for this feature since the release of BO6, and fortunately it is finally here.

AFK Kick Loadout Recovery

The responsibility of this feature is simple, if you are kicked out of a co-op game because of pausing, you can rejoin and recover your equipment, which was not possible in Season 1. Progression is one of the most important parts of running CoD Black Ops 6, so accidentally losing weapons, perks and points can be a hindrance to your subsequent game progress, and this feature can effectively eliminate the frustration you may face.

Separate HUD Presets

Separate HUD presets mean that you will set your favorite HUD settings in Zombies mode and keep completely different settings for MP without changing them between modes, saving you the trouble of having to adjust the settings when switching modes.

SMGs That May Return In Tomb Map

Whether it is the entire series of games or limited to Zombies mode, in fact, you should have seen quite a few memorable submachine guns in them in the past. In Tomb map that will be launched with Season 2, besides Bootlegger, a Zombie mode-specific submachine gun that returns from Black Ops 3, the following SMGs may also return, considering the popularity of various SMGs in the past.

MP40

MP40 can be said to be the most representative Zombies mode submachine gun since the birth of Call of Duty, especially in World at War and Black Ops, which left a deep impression on many people. In Black Ops and Black Ops 3, you will even find that this submachine gun is actually a wall weapon used in the construction point of Kino Der Toten map.

PPSh-41

The most prominent advantage of this SMG is its fast rate of fire and unique visual design. It enjoys a high reputation among the fans of Call of Duty series, so much so that it received a warm welcome when it appeared again in Gorod Krovi map of CoD Black Ops 3. So if it returns in BO6, you’ll definitely want to redeem it with CoD: Black Ops 6 Redeem Codes.

Thompson

Compared to the previous two SMGs, Thompson doesn’t seem as powerful, but you can make it more powerful with Pack-a-Punch upgrade, which increases its value. In addition, Thompson has also left its own unique mark on CoD Zombies mode with its performance in Mob of the Dead.

One shortcoming of Season 1’s Zombies mode is that it seems that every map feels the same, which may be because they share a lot of mechanics, so the new features introduced in Season 2 are bound to improve this situation. Of course, the importance of unique weapons cannot be denied, so it is also necessary to allow more popular Zombies mode SMGs to return to Tomb map.

The above is our introduction to some changes in BO6 Season 2 Zombies mode. Thank you for reading.
