As excitement builds around the launch of Call of Duty®: Black Ops 6, players can now dive into the multiplayer mayhem with the addition of the beloved 1950s Nuketown map and the popular Infected game mode. These updates set the stage for Season 01 and beyond.

Multiplayer mayhem begins with Infected

The Infected game mode debuts in Black Ops 6 just in time for Halloween! Thanks to the new Omnimovement system, this classic mode has been given a new twist. “Cheat death – or enrich the ranks of the undead – with the smoothest movement mechanics yet,” the game promises.

In Infected, a player starts as the Infected, tasked with eliminating the remaining survivors. Each time a player is eliminated, they join the ranks of the undead, intensifying the challenge for those who remain.

Classic Nuketown returns November 1st

Mark your calendars: November 1st is the day the original Nuketown makes its triumphant return. This remastered version of the iconic map stays true to its roots while benefiting from significant graphical improvements. Designed by veteran Treyarch map designer Adam Hoggatt, the updated Nuketown maintains its classic 1950s aesthetic, with a bright desert landscape and nostalgic details.

Hoggatt shared his excitement, saying: “The original Nuketown has always been my favorite…many of our current players never experienced the original, so they are feeling the magic of Nuketown for the first time. ” He also expressed his excitement for longtime fans, saying, “I can’t wait for players to experience the original Nuketown exactly as they remember it! »

A Closer Look at the Nuketown Map

In this remastered version, gameplay focuses on bus and container truck areas, with different viewpoints available inside the houses. Players will find themselves in a dead end inhabited by original plastic figurines, providing both a unique visual and strategic element.

For those who can’t get enough of Nuketown, the multiplayer launch includes the Strike Warhead map, located near the iconic test site. This map presents a landscape reclaimed by desert sands, supplemented by scattered debris and remains of the original site.

And next: the resurgence of Area 99

The excitement doesn’t stop there! As part of the upcoming Season 01, players can expect to explore the new Area 99 Resurgence map in the free Call of Duty: Warzone update. Located in the Nevada desert, this top-secret government site provides an engaging backdrop, featuring elements related to the iconic history of Nuketown.

Mark your calendars: Season 01 launches on November 14

Get ready for a massive content release when Season 01 arrives on November 14! This update will introduce a host of free content, including new multiplayer maps, new modes, a scary Zombies map, and improved features for Black Ops 6 and Call of Duty: Warzone.
