Endgame Content

[table equalcells="1" colwidth=""]

FREE TO PLAY: ENDGAME CONTENT SUMMARY

New Assignment: Take to the roads in a bomb-rigged vehicle in the new Burn Run Assignment, challenging Operators to a race against the clock while running over enemies and objects to add valuable seconds to the timer. Stick to the path, seek out bonuses en route, and don’t let up on that gas pedal.

New Ability Boosts: Further customize your Operator with the addition of Ability Boosts, earnable primarily in Nightmare zones with a chance to drop in Zone IV. Ability Boosts add additional upgrades to your Major and Minor Abilities, from reducing their cooldown time to adding more ammo, inflicting additional damage types, and more.

Free to Play Ends Soon: Season 05 is your last chance to jump into Endgame for free with your squad. Don’t miss out!

New Assignment: Burn Run (Launch)

Get pumped in Avalon with the new Burn Run Assignment, challenging Operators to a race against the clock in a bomb-rigged vehicle that’s ready to explode. As the music rages on, step on the gas and pass through all thirty arches, each one embroiled in flames so you know exactly where to go.

The pathway is littered with Fear enemies and objects; run them over to add additional seconds to the clock and seek out bonuses like repair wrenches and speed boosts to keep your vehicle in working order as you blast through the racecourse. Keep your eyes on the road, hit everything in your path, and get to the destination.

Exotic Ability Boosts (Launch)

Upgrade your Major and Minor Abilities with new, rare enhancements that can be acquired in the match, further empowering them with advantages including reduced cooldown times, extra ammo, the chance to inflict additional damage types, and other bonuses improving their effectiveness in the field.

Found in item cases, Ability Boosts are mixed in with other reward types and are chosen based on your currently equipped Major and Minor Ability. Though Ability Boosts have a small chance to drop in Zone IV regions, they are primarily found in Nightmare locations. Open your Tac Map and check the rewards list of various Nightmare level Activities and Assignments to discover where you have the best chance of discovering them.

Each Major and Minor Ability has two Exotic Ability boosts to choose from. Once acquired, the Ability Boost will remain until you either wipe or swap out the affected Ability.

Free to Play Throughout S05

Endgame’s free-to-play period is planned to continue through to the conclusion of Season 05, so be sure to jump in with your squad to explore all that Avalon has to offer in this expansive PvE mode. Once Season 06 of Black Ops 7 and Call of Duty: Warzone begins, Endgame will no longer be accessible via the Call of Duty: Warzone menu and will be available only to Black Ops 7 owners.

MULTIPLAYER CONTENT SUMMARY

Multiplayer Maps

Jubilee (Launch)

Brand-New, 6v6, Medium-Sized

Fight through a rural Japanese town as a festival turns to chaos and the streets erupt in conflict. Battle in the front courtyard of the Palace museum, explore local cuisine in the pop-up Festival, and test your luck in the pachinko room offering low and standard rates. For a more scenic path, traverse the outer Garden running behind residential spaces above street level.

For long-ranged skirmishes, head down the central Main Street running down the length of the map where scattered vehicles provide some cover throughout. For tighter encounters, flank out to the sides where there’s a greater mix of sightlines, giving every playstyle a chance to shine in the celebratory scene.

Frequency (Launch)

Remaster, 6v6, Medium-Sized

First introduced in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, Frequency returns fully remastered with greater detail than ever before. Deploy deep into the mountains of Hunan where Operators engage in constant battle over control of the listening station’s global surveillance capabilities.

Take in the sights along the outer platform as you battle down the infamous Catwalk and Pipes sections on the perimeter, or head inside the facility for close-quarters action in the Surveillance room and amongst the Servers. The map opens up in the middle with skirmishes breaking out all around the circular pathway; drop down into the Maintenance area to travel below the path. Whatever your approach, make liberal use of the Wall Jump for new angles of attack while throwing off the enemy’s aim.

Dig (Launch)

Remaster, 6v6, Small-Sized

Following its debut in Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, Dig returns in remastered form, sending Operators to an archaeological dig site in Avalon where rival forces clash over what lies beneath. With the enhanced movement of Black Ops 7, now’s your chance to experience the map like never before.

Battle along exposed ruins with bas-reliefs of ancient battles and statues commemorating long forgotten figures. Featuring a roughly rectangular layout, the map is full of equipment and scaffolding to repair the crumbling architecture, creating a myriad of narrow, twisting routes that occasionally open up onto long distance vantage points, pits dug into the ground, secret passageways, and flanking routes that are ideal for setting up ambush.

Turbo Tilt (Mid-Season)

Brand-New, 6v6/2v2, Small-Sized

Shrink down to size and battle inside the Nuketown Turbo Era Rampage pinball machine in Turbo Tilt, a wild Mid-Season Multiplayer map inspired by the history of Nuketown. Encounter a lit up mushroom cloud in the center where a boulder sized pinball occasionally passes through crushing unlucky Operators in its path. Take cover behind bumpers and flippers and fire from the upper window of the Green House just like in the original. Push the opposition, obtain a high score, and finish the match in style.

Freerun: Descent (Mid-Season)

Brand-New

The Guild expects nothing less than the absolute best from its pool of Operators, and that begins with training as the company brings a new obstacle course into play. Jump, dive, slide, and more across an all-new Freerun map arriving in the Mid-Season.

Multiplayer Limited-Time Modes

Overdrive Domination (Launch)

New Mode (Moshpit)

Domination comes to Overdrive bringing an objective-based twist to the high-octane game mode. Capture, hold, and defend objectives while eliminating targets with style to earn stars for your team.

Earn additional stars for impressive Eliminations based on the following criteria:

  • Earn 1 star for Basic Eliminations.

  • Earn 2 stars for Core Medal Eliminations.

  • Earn 3 stars for completing Distinguished Medal Eliminations.

Earning stars grants special Operator bonuses, as follows:

  • 1 Star: Cognition Uplink: Increased perception to help you find your next target.

  • 3 Stars: Hyper Speed: Increased movement speed to reach your target faster.

  • 6 Stars: Ballistic Overdrive: Increased weapons handling to help you eliminate your target.

Stay in the fight to keep your star counter climbing. If you are eliminated or wait too long between actions, your star count will return to zero. Operators who manage to achieve six stars in a single combo will trigger Overdrive, doubling all earned stars while active.

Gauntlet Rush (Launch)

New Mode

Keep pushing and don’t let up in the new Gauntlet Rush mode, rewarding Operators who constantly engage the enemy and complete objectives across a rotating set of five modes: Team Deathmatch, Kill Confirmed, Domination, Hardpoint, and Roulette.

Each game mode lasts for two minutes before seamlessly switching to the next one within the same map to keep the action hot. Eliminate enemies and play the objective to rev up toward Operator enhancements including faster movement speed, weapon swap speed, and improved headshot damage.

Check the lower lefthand corner of your HUD to see how close you are to earning the next buff; the gauge drops if you fail to engage the next target or objective quickly enough, so stay active and reap the rewards. Throughout the match, look out for Gain Stacks that drop in the environment, providing a huge score boost to help reach that next devastating Scorestreak.

Cranked Moshpit (Mid-Season)

Returning Mode

Turn up the heat with the debut of Cranked in Black Ops 7. Eliminate enemies to activate the Cranked timer and earn buffs like faster movement, reload speed, and other upgrades. Your life ends when the timer does, so keep it active through constant slaying. Hit zero and you explode.

Endgame Content

[table equalcells="1" colwidth=""]

FREE TO PLAY: ENDGAME CONTENT SUMMARY

Endgame Goes Free to Play: With Season 03, Endgame goes Free to Play for everyone for a limited time! Invite your squad to join the action, with free players starting as one of the four JSOC Operators from Specter One. Also expect adjustments to Loadouts and loss rules that better fit the evolving dynamics in Endgame Avalon.

Introducing Operations: Time to go to work. Operations are deploying to Avalon to give your violence a tactical framework, starting with Operation Poison Pill.

**New Skill Track, Two Abilities: **At launch, summon attack drones and turn enemies into allies with the new Warband Skill Track and hurl a ricocheting projectile with the Aether Blade Ability. Later in the season, unlock the Thermal Spike Ability as a Weekly Challenge reward.

Endgame Goes Free to Play (Launch)

Calling all Operators! Season 03 marks the beginning of Endgame as a free to play game mode for a limited time, accessible from the main Call of Duty menu and within Call of Duty: Warzone and Black Ops 7. Invite your squad and recruit other players into the action. As a co-operative PvE mode, Endgame is the perfect entry for newcomers and returning _Black Ops _veterans alike.


[[BO7-SEASON-03-ANNOUNCEMENT-001]]

Bringing Avalon to Call of Duty: Warzone through Black Ops Royale, players were introduced a new way to engage with the Black Ops universe. Now, for a limited time, Endgame is also coming to Call of Duty: Warzone!

For newcomers, Endgame is a co-op PvE experience focused on squad-based runs, boss encounters, and repeatable challenges. Players push through combat spaces together, taking on increasingly difficult encounters across each run. Progression systems like Exotic weapons and Nightmare skills unlock through gameplay and expand your options over time, adding depth as you continue playing.

Players can earn XP, complete challenges, and unlock rewards tied to ongoing seasonal updates.

For a limited time, the full Endgame experience (not including the Co-Op Campaign) is available directly within Call of Duty: Warzone.

Endgame Season 03 Content Overview

As Season 03 adds further challenges and rewards across Avalon, including the introduction of Operation Poison Pill, now’s the time to grow the ranks and push the attack. Players will continue to progress and earn XP as normal while playing Endgame, tied into the same leveling journey across all four modes.

By default, players who do not own _Black Ops _7 will begin their Endgame journey with four Operators to choose from: Mason, Anderson, 50/50, and Samuels.

Loadout Updates

Starting in Season 03, Endgame Loadouts will be individually assigned to each Operator, so that each separate Endgame Operator has their own Loadout including Weapons, Field Acquisitions, and Equipment. Operators who exfil with a Scorestreak or Self Revive will also save those items for the next deployment. This change provides more customization options, as players can now find and equip a unique Exotic Weapon for every Operator and craft builds that are unique for each fighter.

For players who have already experienced Endgame, your existing Loadout will automatically be assigned to your active Operator. All other Operators will start with a default Loadout.

**Reset Combat Rating: **Players may optionally reset an Operator's Combat Rating to 0 if they want to start fresh with a new Operator Build. This will not affect the Operator's Loadout, as Weapons, Equipment and rarity are preserved. Note that resetting the Combat Rating will also discard Exotic and Nightmare skills.

**Reset Skill Track: **Once you’ve fully progressed an Operator’s Combat Rating by unlocking all Power Upgrades and Skills, you may choose to reset one of your Skill Tracks. Resetting a Skill Track removes all associated Skills and reduces the Operator’s Combat Rating by 16 to reflect the lost power.

The next time you increase your Power, you’ll be offered two new Skill Tracks to choose from, giving you greater flexibility to shape an Operator build that better fits your playstyle.

Updated Loss Rules

As Endgame content becomes more dangerous with Glitches, Guild Strikes, and Nightmare Difficulty zones, the loss rules have been updated to limit how much Combat Rating (CR) players can lose from Skills and Power Upgrades.

If a player or squad is wiped, the total Combat Rating lost from earned Skills and Power Upgrades is capped at 15 CR. This means players can lose no more than 15 CR of progression per wipe.

Nightmare Skills and Exotic Skills are still fully lost, and the player’s Loadout is reset. Because these Skills contribute to total Combat Rating, their removal will also reduce CR accordingly.

Introducing Operation Poison Pill (Launch)

Season 03 ups the ante and introduces Operations into Endgame, kicking things off with Operation Poison Pill. Operations run on a series of strict objectives designed to be cleared across multiple matches. Secure rewards for every objective you complete and systematically power up your Operator for the fight ahead. Clear the final objective to finish the job and unlock direct access to the new Link Forger Glitch Fracture. Operation rewards include a new Weapon Blueprint, Emblem, Double XP Token, Loading Screen, and other rewards, including the new Restore Token consumable item, described below.

You’ll want to do your best to keep your Operator in top shape throughout the Operation, especially if you want to remain on track to earn the final rewards (see below), including an animated Weapon Camo.

Enter the Link Forger Glitch, Earn Rewards



Complete Operation steps to earn valuable rewards, power up, and discover the location of the Link Forger Glitch Fracture, in which you and your squad will battle through relentless waves of enemies in a Nightmare Difficulty arena.

Restore Tokens

Operator down? With a Restore Token in hand players can choose to activate the consumable item to restore all lost progress, including your Operator’s Skills and current Loadout. The Operation isn’t the only means of earning Restore Tokens; keep an eye out for more chances to acquire this highly valuable item.

Multiplayer Maps

Beacon (Launch)

Brand-New, 6v6, Medium-Sized


Deploy to the frozen terrain of Beacon, a remote Guild facility blanketed in snow. A destroyed helicopter lies in flaming ruins just outside the map’s border and crates labeled with “Skyveil Array” fill the entrance, offering substantial cover while moving toward the facility.

Inside, hunt down targets within the Housing unit, Monitoring Station, and Storage shed. Watch out for enemies positioned around the central Bridge and take long shots across the distant Tundra. This mid-sized map combines a variety of sightlines, so there’s no wrong approach. Bundle up, head out, and keep warm with aggressive tactics to overwhelm the enemy forces.

Abyss (Launch)

Brand-New, 6v6/2v2, Small-Sized


From the Engine to the Torpedo Bay, battle through the confined quarters of a submarine, trading shots along narrow corridors with just enough room to outmaneuver your opponents. Keep a keen eye out for rope Ascenders placed throughout the sub, giving access to the Forward and Aft Decks up top to push for the flank... but be mindful of players at the top of the Sail who have views of the upper decks.

In the interior time your movements through tight spaces while seeking out vantage points throughout, such as the upper walkway in the Forward and Aft Silos. When on the same level as your opponent, dodge and weave amongst the boat’s various obstacles to outmaneuver your foe using any means possible.

Plaza (Launch)

Remaster, 6v6, Medium-Sized



First introduced in Black Ops 2, Plaza has been beautifully remastered for the first time since 2012. With the addition of Wall Jumping and Black Ops 7’s unique arsenal, this is Plaza like you’ve never experienced it before.

Battle across the outer Mall and through the Concourse as fireworks burst in the night sky. In the center, engage in fierce fights over the iconic stairwell, rising to an upper platform on both sides, grenades flying as Operators seek to damage enemies on the other side. Explore the luxurious interior locations of the Colossus Resort, including the popular Luna Nightclub alongside high-end shops, the extravagant Red Bar, and other staples of the rich life at sea.

Gridlock (Launch)

Remaster, 6v6, Medium-Sized


Traffic grinds to a halt in the remastered Gridlock, first introduced in Black Ops 4. An explosive heist has left the freeway in shambles over a Japanese city. Battle among overturned vehicles and through the rubble, the remnants of the attack flown across the various shops and Promenade.

Fight through the Garden and Terrace bookending the bath house, or take to the long sightlines down the Street, a delivery truck on either end providing excellent views all around. For a more covered view, head into the Restaurant, offering killer vantage points from multiple angles.

Mission: Trident (Launch)

Brand-New Skirmish Map, 20v20


Season 03 continues to up the map offering in the 20v20 Skirmish mode with Mission: Trident. The Old Arsenal Avalon point of interest is the latest area of operations, with patrol boats assisting in navigating the waterways and shoreline through harbor warehouses and numerous medieval fortifications.

Seek the helipad on the high ground atop a section of an old cruise liner, with a surprisingly opulent interior. Then watch for rooftop snipers across the long sightlines, ramped bridges, and other thoroughfares.

Onsen (Mid-Season)

Brand-New, 6v6/2v2, Small-Sized


Head out to the Japanese hot springs in Onsen, but don’t get too relaxed. This spa offers a number of places to cool down, though the central steam bath is where the action is likely to heat up, especially as it offers the perfect cover for incoming attacks.

Weave past the oni statue on your way to set up heightened cover positions along the main structure, with outbuildings either side of the steam bath.

Summit (Mid-Season)

Remastered, 6v6, Medium-Sized


Summit makes its triumphant return in Black Ops 7! First seen in the original Black Ops, this classic mid-sized map brings Operators to a research facility perched high on the snowy mountains. Wall Jump through tight interior labs, catwalks, and a central control room surrounded by exterior routes and a dangerous cliffside.

Its balanced three-lane layout supports fast engagements, flanking paths, and vertical sightlines, now explorable through the updated Black Ops 7 movement system.

Hacienda (Mid-Season)

Returning, 6v6, Medium-Sized


The luxurious vineyard estate returns from Black Ops 6, now with additional maneuvering points via Wall Jumps. Battle through the grand central villa, weave between vineyard paths, and push through the garage and courtyard as firefights erupt across the property.

With a classic three-lane layout blending tight interior fights and open exterior sightlines, Hacienda delivers fast, tactical engagements in one of the most stylish battlegrounds in the Black Ops series.

Ascent (Mid-Season)

Welcome to Black Ops Royale

[table equalcells="1" colwidth=""]

BLACK OPS ROYALE SUMMARY

Black Ops Royale: This is an original Blackout-inspired Battle Royale with no Loadouts, no Gulag, and no Buy Stations. Wingsuit in, scavenge to survive, upgrade weapons through rarity, master Cradle Breaches, and outlast 24 rival squads on Avalon’s massive warzone.

**Weapons, Archetypes, and Upgrading: **After infil, it’s pure scavenger warfare: scramble to find Black Ops 7 weapons with fixed Build Archetypes and five-attachment upgrade paths. Hunt for Attachment Kits to raise weapon Rarity, unlocking your preset build, and push your arsenal to Legendary before the competition does.

A Deeper Dive into Weapon Archetypes: Weapon Archetypes define how every gun functions in Black Ops Royale, pairing class-wide Global Benefits with tuned Build Themes that stack through rarity upgrades. Learn the Themes, master the kits, and turn base ground loot into Legendary or even Exotic match-winning firepower.

Cerebral Link: Your Heads-Up Display: Black Ops Royale’s Cerebral Link HUD keeps the familiar Call of Duty®: Warzone™ layout while adding critical intel: visible health values, weapon Rarity and Archetype, full Attachment upgrade paths, and an expanded Backpack Menu supporting additional equipment slots. Faster swaps, clearer data, sharper decision-making — all at a glance.

Black Ops Royale Perk System: The original Call of Duty BR Perk system returns and includes a flexible twist: no fixed slots, just five swappable, consumable boosts you activate when the moment demands. Loot them, swap them with your squad, and time them wisely — each temporary advantage can shift the balance of a firefight or the fate of your squad throughout the match.

**Black Ops Royale Equipment: **Arm yourself with a full Blackout-inspired arsenal: carry two types of Equipment at once and use returning favorites like the Grappling Hook, Sensor Dart, and Trauma Kit, plus potent Killstreaks and the Tiered Armor Vest system. Scavenge smartly and deploy the right tool at the right moment to survive Avalon’s escalating chaos.

Black Ops Royale Match Features: Black Ops Royale reshapes match flow with wingsuit infil, wall-jumping Omnimovement, swimmable waterways, and crossable tidal flats. No Gulag — redeploy via Tokens or captured Towers. Command land, sea, and air vehicles, outmaneuver rivals, and stay ahead of the ever-closing Collapse.

Activities: Avalon’s optional Activities add to looting with purposeful risk: hunt bounties, crack Strongboxes for Armor, capture Relays for UAV sweeps and redeploys, or fight through Guild defenses for premium rewards. Choose your objective, secure the advantage, and dictate the pace of the match.

Cradle Breaches shroud parts of Avalon in red gas, spawning hallucinated zombie hordes and revealing desirable loot invisible outside the zone. Brave the chaos to face a Mangler Boss or unlock a Mystery Box for the best armor, weaponry, and other top-tier rewards — if you survive.

Integrations and Launch Timing: Black Ops Royale ties directly into Black Ops 7 and Call of Duty: Warzone progression, with exclusive Challenges, Missions, and camo unlocks — plus the cross-mode Counter Skies Event Pass (March 17 – April 2). Earn the Swordfish A1, new Attachments, Operator Skins, and more when the mode launches March 12 at 9PM PT.

“Up to 100 wingsuited players with one goal: be the last team standing. Once you hit the ground, you’ll have to scavenge for weapons and other resources to strategize your survival. In addition to the numerous opponents beware of the collapse which slowly shrinks the area of combat forcing fights to the death. Oh, and don’t forget the zombies…”

– Call of Duty Blog, describing the original Black Op 4: Blackout, October 12, 2018.

A new big map, and a rebuilt and updated mode inspired by the Call of Duty Battle Royale experience that started it all.

Call of Duty: Warzone players: Welcome to Avalon. And to Black Ops Royale!

Call of Duty’s original Battle Royale experience returns as Black Ops Royale, bringing the intensity of the original mode to Call of Duty: Warzone, but with modern updates and modifications for a truly Black Ops experience. What follows is an in-depth first look at the gameplay present in Black Ops Royale.

How to Play the Black Ops Royale Way

What is Black Ops Royale?


This is a free-to-play Battle Royale experience with new rules influenced by the original Blackout: Black Ops Royale is on a new map with gameplay that rewards scavenging for greater gear and eventual domination of all rival squads. There are clear influences from the core Blackout experience — like bullet drop and weapon handling, as well as the armor system and use of the Trauma Kit — capturing the Blackout pacing, traversal, and combat feel in a modern way. This isn’t a remake; it’s a unique experience that pays homage to the Blackout core gameplay while keeping the flow of a match feeling right for Call of Duty: Warzone players.


How many Players and Squads?

There will be 100 players in 25 Quad teams to begin with, dropping into Avalon, with a visible circle denoting an ever-shrinking perimeter. The location of this electrified boundary shifts to another part of the map at the start of each match to ensure the entire map is playable across games.


What makes this Battle Royale Mode different?

Unlike the usual Call of Duty: Warzone BR modes, there are no Loadouts, with all players beginning on an equal footing. You drop into the fray with only a pistol and a Wingsuit. There are no Buy Stations. There is no Gulag. There is no in-game cash. You’re here to gear up, control the chaos, and annihilate all rivals.

· Gear Up: Seek out critical weapon and armor upgrades. Chase high-tier power wherever it appears.

· Control the Chaos: Cradle Breaches hold unknown threats and unmatched rewards.

· Annihilate All Rivals: Strike fast with the Wingsuit. Convert your arsenal into victory as the last team alive.

How do I Gear Up proficiently?

Find a weapon, Armor, and Equipment from ground loot and Supply Boxes, and be on the lookout for Consumable Perks, as well as equipment to level up your armor.

Each weapon has preset archetypes, and if you find one that fits your playstyle, you can upgrade it using Attachment Kits found in the world, rather than scavenging for individual Attachments. Increasing rarity adds attachments and improves stats, all the way up to Legendary. You immediately feel the impact as you upgrade.

There are both low and high-risk areas to scavenge in; you’re here to earn your way to success. Every match will feel different. There’s no guaranteed path to a specific weapon. You need to adapt to what you find.

What happens if I’m eliminated?

You have two chances to redeploy: either by using a scavenged Redeploy Token allowing you to jump back into the match, or your team can activate a Redeployment Tower.

How do I obtain the best loot?

By successfully scavenging and upgrading your armaments, tactically using Equipment including the Blackout elements integrated into Black Ops Royale, such as the Wingsuit, Grappling Hook, Sensor Dart, RC-XD, Trauma Kit, and both the Perk and Armor systems.

You’re also here to control the chaos and claim high-tier loot in Cradle Breaches, the spiritual successor to Blackout’s zombie zones.

Infil: Scavenge to Survive

Drop into “Operation: Eclipse” from a formation of VTOLs alongside your adversaries with nothing more than a Wingsuit, two plates of attached armor, a knife and a Jäger 45 pistol: This is Blackout-inspired gameplay where scavenging is the key to survival. You’re here to loot with haste before the enemy outplays you. Your first plan is usually obtaining a more powerful weapon.

Big Map Update: Avalon

First introduced as the large-scale Endgame map in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, Avalon is the “Big Map” in Call of Duty: Warzone, expanding the map pool alongside Verdansk, Rebirth Island, and Haven’s Hollow. Avalon’s massive landscape is defined by connected locations and purpose-built combat zones, all taking place without the ominous red fog present in Endgame.

This lets the vibrant and colorful world of Avalon shine, featuring a mix of dense city sectors, tactically diverse interior spaces, exposed routes where faster traversal may be advantageous, and extended sightlines. The team at Treyarch has made efforts to reduce water prevalence in the map, adding sections of exposed sand to connect islands, and new land areas that connect major land masses to streamline player movement for a better Battle Royale gameplay experience.

Call of Duty: Warzone: New Offensive Equipment

Let’s dive a little deeper into the capabilities of the new Equipment coming to Call of Duty: Warzone at Season 01:

**Tactical: Pinpoint Grenade (Ground Loot Only): **Unlike the Snapshot Grenade, which offers a quick burst of intel, the Pinpoint Grenade provides sustained reconnaissance for a short duration. When active, it deploys tracking darts at enemies entering its radius, marking their positions for you and your squad. Each pulse can tag multiple targets over time, making it a powerful tool for coordinated pushes. Enemies can remove the dart if they act quickly, balancing its impact while keeping the intel flow strategic rather than overwhelming.

**Tactical: Psych Grenade: **An experimental projectile that causes confusion and chaos; a disorienting red gas that can spawn phantom facsimiles of nearby enemies, creating visual, audio, and minimap distortion within its radius. Use it to break line-of-sight, bait opponents into false engagements, or slip away while they chase ghosts.

**Tactical: Phantom Signal (Ground Loot Only): **This scrambles enemy awareness and exposes their position. When deployed, it forces up to three nearby foes to emit distorted audio cues while briefly revealing their locations on the compass. Their HUD flickers with interference during the effect, leaving them momentarily disoriented and vulnerable to pursuit.

**Lethal: Needle Drone (Ground Loot Only): **A compact, throwable mini-drone that detonates on impact — or with quick reflexes can be remotely steered and manually triggered within a brief six-second control window. Perfect for precision strikes in situations or for surprise plays, the Needle Drone delivers lethal accuracy.


**Field Upgrade: Echo Unit: **Deploy the Echo Unit to create a lifelike decoy that mirrors your Operator’s appearance and stance. Unlike traditional holographic projections, this advanced mimic replicates your current posture — standing or crouched — making it a convincing distraction for unsuspecting enemies.

Call of Duty: Warzone Available Perks

Weapons > Loadouts > Custom Loadouts > Perk 1/Perk 2/Perk 3

The last part of your Loadout planning requires you to inspect and choose three Perks from a total of 15, one each from a set of five in Perk slots 1, 2, and 3. Here are the available Perks, with more to find during a Match:

Perk 1 (Blue): Choose one of the following:


**Scavenger: **Improves Ammo and Resource acquisition.

**Veteran: **Improves equipment resistance and Long-Range weapon handling.

Mountaineer: Gain damage negation when falling.

Cold-Blooded: Gain immunity to tracking equipment, targeting systems, and electronic interference.

**Grenadier: **Improves explosive equipment and equipment handling.

Perk 2 (Red): Choose one of the following:

**Quick Fix: **Improves armor handling and health regen.

**Alertness: **Improves awareness.

**Reactive Armor: **Improves armory recovery and defense.

**Bomb Squad: **Gain explosive resistance and equipment negation.

**Sprinter: **Improves Sprinting and movement.

Perk 3 (Yellow): Choose one of the following:

**Tempered: **Improves armor.

**Adaptive: **Improves explosive defense, movement, and handling.

**Tracker: **Improves tracking and target acquisition.

**Survivor: **Improves health regeneration, revives, and provides one-hit protection against ballistic weapons.

**Ghost: **Improves stealth.

Expect more details on Perks from Raven Software in the days before and during Season 01 Launch.

New Resurgence Map: Welcome to Haven’s Hollow

The battle lines have been re-drawn, as the area of operations shifts to an isolated Appalachian town that feels straight out of another era. Though parts of the picturesque hamlet of Haven’s Hollow may look familiar, there are plenty of new areas to explore. It’s also the stage for fast-paced frenetic Resurgence gameplay.

Get a step ahead of the competition with a deeper look at the major POIs you’ll encounter in your deployments to Haven’s Hollow.

The primary points of interest include:

  • Mansion

  • Pond

  • Train Station

  • Barn

  • Research Center

  • Main Street

  • River Boat

  • Coal Depot

  • Lumbermill

Mansion

The Mansion will be instantly familiar site to anyone who played the Shattered Veil Zombies map in Black Ops 6. A giant T-Rex fossil — thankfully long dead — greets Operators by the staircase in the main hall, doorways on the first and second floor branching off into other rooms and levels. Take the stairs or latch onto an Ascender to reach the rooftop or move through the surrounding grounds like the courtyard and over the water toward the Research Center.

Pond

Watch out for snipers firing down from the ranger station overlooking the Pond. In the middle, a gazebo sits on a small island of land with a Zipline toward a covered bridge on one side and a rest area on the other. The water itself is shallow, though even then it’s advised to keep your boots dry, considering the many power positions overlooking the area in the circle of land that surrounds it.

Train Station

Engage in long-range skirmishes across the open expanse of the Train Station, a mostly flat area with the central station and a few smaller outbuildings making up a meager amount of interior space. Follow the tracks down to the bridge toward Main Street or explore the cliffside where the terrain cuts down near straight to the water.

Barn

Hit up the Barn to gather supplies in the main building or any of the surrounding homes supporting the operation, built on a flat block of land just uphill of Main Street.

As the center of the map, you’re bound to cross paths with enemy squads. Climb the ladder up the grain silo to dominate from above or post up in one of the houses and prepare an ambush.

Research Center

Explore Haven’s Lab and the smaller Data Center, the buildings surrounded by a parking lot and walking paths creating long sightlines on the outside. For closer combat, head into Haven’s Lab, a large three-level structure with an atrium in the middle. For even tighter brawls, head to the Data Center.

Main Street

The heart of Haven’s Hollow provides residents and tourists alike with a variety of amenities including a video rental store, ice cream shop, hardware store, and other folksy additions to make people feel right at home.

Fans of the Liberty Falls map from Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies will recognize the motel, comic store, and bowling alley amongst other infamous locations in this main thoroughfare of clustered buildings.

Riverboat

The pride of the town, Haven’s Gamble offers luxurious river cruises on a three-tiered paddleboat right on the water south of Main Street. A row of slot machines and card tables line the bottom level while a bar, grill, and stage adorn the top. Explore the outer deck on all three levels, firing on enemies in the water and inland. For quick access on and off, look to the covered walkways and the Ziplines attached to the front and back.

Coal Depot

The Coal Depot slopes in tiered levels downhill toward the Lumbermill, the two areas comprising Haven Hollow’s industrial sector. Coal Depot rewards creative tactical play; use its blend of tracks, train cars, coal piles, and interior spaces to set up flanking attacks and ambushes. Explore the center warehouse for loot or get up on the roof for a commanding view of the area. For a lower profile, hit up one of the smaller buildings on either side.

Lumbermill

Two large buildings, connected by a central walkway, dominate the site, their open floorplans opening mid-ranged sightlines throughout the interior. A silo outside offers the perfect viewing platform covering the main road through town, and a trio of warehouses offer room to loot up and a place slip away from more populated areas of the map.

New Verdansk POIs (Launch)

In addition to marking the release of Haven’s Hollow, the Season 01 update also brings two POIs to Verdansk, the brand-new Signal Station and the remastered Factory.

Signal Station

A new Guild complex arrives in the north of Verdansk, instantly recognizable by its three white spheres looking over the frozen lake and forest. Explore the main building featuring multiple levels of combat and a large central area where squads can interact with the facility to access additional map intel.

Outside, the road curves through a covered pathway at the base of the facility. Drive in, Zipline up into the main building, get what you need, and zip back out. The smaller warehouse by the helipad out front offers a more concealed area, good for ambushing enemies on the ground, the opposite garage offering similar advantages along the main road.

Factory

Players with experience in Verdansk ’84 will recognize this sprawling industrial site located just east of Superstore. Guild Rockets are being developed and stored in the updated Factory site, supported by an intricate system of worksites, silos, warehouses, and other supporting facilitates.

The dense cluster of buildings is packed with loot, well worth a stop if you can survive the trip. The iconic location is bound to draw a lot of attention, its tightly packed buildings giving squads lots of room to maneuver. Keep your comms active to stay one step ahead of the enemy, and for a near full view of the Factory exterior, send your best sharpshooter up the Ascender to the top of the control tower.

Season 01 Modes and Playlists

Drop into Haven’s Hollow, Rebirth Island, and the newly updated Verdansk and expect the following Modes, with additional Playlists as the season progresses:

· Battle Royale, Battle Royale Casual

· Resurgence, Resurgence Casual

Additionally, reports of anomalies appearing periodically throughout certain \ locations appear to be valid. Further inspection is required at Mid-Season.

Polaris Vehicles Return with a Fresh Look for Season 01

Returning to Verdansk, heading to Rebirth Island, or dropping into Haven’s Hollow? Then plan your vehicle acquisition accordingly, Operator, as your preferred mode of transport is likely to be the Polaris RZR Pro R 4 UTV, and the Polaris Sportsman XP 1000 ATV off-road vehicles, all arriving in Season 01 sporting a new, sleek, Black Ops 7 design.

The Story So Far

In what could be best described as a hostile takeover, General Alden Dorne completes his power grab with a definitive move against Kagan, and forces Mason along for the ride, trapping him in his own mind.

When Mason wakes from his hallucinatory hell, Dorne has “invited” Mason to the beginning of a new empire for The Guild, high atop the balcony overlooking the futuristic metropolis of Utopia.

Welcome to Project Synapse.

As tThe Guild claws its way back from the ashes of defeat at the hands of David Mason, Alden Dorne, once the trusted right hand of CEO Emma Kagan, seizes his moment. In a ruthless coup, Dorne casts Kagan aside forever, claiming the throne and reshaping tThe Guild’s destiny.

His vision is merciless: capture David Mason at all costs and unlock the secrets buried within the C-Link, the cutting-edge neural tech possessed only by JSOC’s elite.

This is more than revenge. It’s the dawn of a new era, forged in blood and ambition.

Season 01 Roadmap

Black Ops 7: Season 01 Endgame Content

[table equalcells="1" colwidth=""]

ENDGAME CONTENT SUMMARY

Endgame is Open: Endgame and the vast Avalon map is now instantly accessible to all Black Ops 7 players as of November 21!

**New Word Events: **Take on multiple new Endgame World Events across Avalon. Face down a giant Zombies-inspired robot, fight off hallucinations near a neurotoxin outbreak, and in the Mid-Season, engage in combat with an advanced VTOL manifested by fear.

New Skills: Power up with eight new Exotic Skills earned by completing World Events; choose to strike with a deadly melee punch, resurrect yourself, or deal devastating critical damage in a variety of ways! Then during the Mid-Season, obtain access to the all-new Phantom Skill Track.

**CODMAS in Endgame: **Avalon gets festive with the arrival of CODMAS in Endgame, bringing snowballs and giftwrapped Supply Boxes into play.

Endgame Intensifies: New World Events and More

With Endgame now instantly accessible and available to all Black Ops 7 players, it’s time to team up, drop into Avalon, and explore this massive new landscape, complete objectives, increase your power, unlock unique Weapon Camos, and take on new threats! Keep pushing into escalating zones of difficulty, calling on other squads to assist if the challenges are too great. Then be sure to exfil safely to maintain your Combat Rating and live another day.

Avalon Rampage: Four Endgame World Events (Launch, In-Season, Mid-Season)

You’ll need to face down threats and build up your Operators’ Combat Rating, Skills, and Abilities, as Season 01 brings four multi-stage Events into the mix to challenge players. You’re advised to be at least Combat Rating 45, call up your squad, and bring your highest Rarity Weapons to the fight. Exotic Weapons will certainly help to turn the tide of battle!

World Event: Colossus of Avalon (Launch Window)

Recommended CR: 45 or higher

A giant mechanical contraption towers over the Avalon terrain, leaving a bloody path in its wake. Expect an emergency announcement breaking into your comms to alert all Operators within the Avalon combat zones to converge on this massive metal threat. Consult your Tac-map for the expected arrival area, and once certain criteria are met, you can watch the terrifying titan fall from the skies, visible across most of the map.

To claim the bounty of rewards on offer for defeating this behemoth, you may need reinforcements outside of your own squad. Tool up, study the giant for weaknesses, expose its core, and take it out! Fail, and the Colossus will blast off into orbit, so don’t delay in your aggression.

Operator Advice: Toppling this colossus will be tough, and smaller robotic enemies are likely to be encountered, so you may wish to think about equipping Black Hat (Minor Ability) or Abilities that assist in your evasion or movement capabilities. As always, Crash Cart (Major Ability) will be an excellent choice to keep you and your squad upright in the battle to come!

World Event: Toxic Tyrant (In-Season)

Recommended CR: 45 or higher

Initial Comms suggest a second major threat to Operators within the Avalon theater of combat: In an event codenamed “Toxic Tyrant,” the emergency alert system breaks into your usual combat chatter to warn you of a severe neurotoxin outbreak occurring in Avalon. Stemming the outbreak requires your top-tier team talent and weaponry, as the enemies spilling out of these fear-based summoning anomalies are powerful and unrelenting.

With time running out, you’ll need to focus on finding the source of this terror and try not to lose your mind entirely when facing the final, large-scale threat let loose by this hallucinatory biological weapon.

Additional World Events: Wraith Wing (Mid-Season)

Recommended CR: 45 or higher

The challenges in Endgame will only intensify as the season progresses.

In the Mid-Season, keep your eyes to the sky in search of a VTOL manifested by fear, in the** Wraith Wing **World Event. This advanced Guild aircraft appears to have cloning capabilities with very lethal consequences as this squadron seems hellbent on eliminating as many JSOC Operators as it can. Disable it, fire at the exposed aircraft, and down that bird.

In addition, expect a fourth World Event to truly test your skills.

Speaking of which:

New Exotic Skills and Phantom Skill Track

Unlock eight new Exotic Skills that change up gameplay in a variety of strategically viable ways and at the Mid-Season, unlock the new Phantom Skill Track.

New: Exotic Skills (Launch)

Exotic Skills are powerful additions acquired by completing World Events via a special Exotic Skill Case, which randomly awards you one of the following Exotic Skills. You can equip and upgrade one Exotic Skill. If you earn a subsequent Exotic Skill Case, you have one of two options:

· Upgrade the currently equipped Exotic Skill.

· Replace the currently equipped Exotic Skill.

With each World Event completion, you can equip and upgrade one Exotic Skill from the following:

**Mega Punch: **Replaces your weapon butt with a deadly punch that knocks back enemies and deals more damage.

· First Upgrade: Hits more enemies.

· Final Upgrade: Chance to trigger a Photon Round that damages enemies and drops a healing capsule.

**Conjuration: **Kill enough enemies to summon Toxin Butterflies that harass and damage enemies.

· **First Upgrade: **Further increase in damage dealt by Toxin Butterflies.

· **Final Upgrade: **Greater increase in damage dealt by Toxin Butterflies.

Multiplayer Maps

Utopia (Launch)

Brand-New, 6v6, Medium-Sized

Huge towers line the horizon of this futuristic city, a refuge for the rich courtesy of The Guild. The striking environment offers plenty of opportunities to get creative with Wall Jumping and parkour-style movements over a loose three lane design balanced between interior and exterior spaces.

Once a cutting-edge Guild research facility built for The Guild’s isolation and innovation, this site now serves as the nerve center of Project Synapse under Alden Dorne’s command. Towering structures pierce the skyline, remnants of a forgotten future now repurposed for ruthless ambition. The layout blends sleek interiors with exposed exteriors across a loose three-lane design, offering dynamic opportunities for wWall runsJumps, parkour maneuvers, and creative combat flow.

See the residence of the future in the Display Home and take a load off by the Restaurant and Garden Statue. In the center, the Showroom displays a cross section of the city, while the outer lanes border the edges of the map which drop far down below. Watch your step or risk falling away from this lap of luxury.

Fate (Launch)

Brand-New, 6v6, Small-Sized

Revisit a twisted version of Raul Menendez’s Nicaraguan compound where giant machetes slice up the sky and chunks of the environment hang suspended in the air as if time were frozen.

David is dragged back into the nightmare he’s tried to forget—: a fractured memory where fear and regret over Raul Menendez take physical form. Step into a warped vision of Menendez’s Nicaraguan compound, now twisted beyond recognition: colossal machetes carve through the sky, and shattered pieces of reality hang suspended as if time itself has splintered.

This dreamlike map features a clearly defined three-lane layout built on a floating landmass in the sky. Fight in the central Courtyard and through the Church or take to the outer lanes where the land drops down nothingness and portals provide instant access to different areas of the map; come out the other side ready to fight.


Odysseus (Launch)

Brand-New, 6v6/2v2, Small-Sized

Engage in close-quarters combat and non-stop action as you explore the Deck overlooking a runway with aircraft frozen in mid-explosion, a red mist floating in the skies above.

The team steps into a distorted hallucination aboard the scarred deck of the USS Obamaa familiar carrier, a place etched deep into David’s past. Close-quarters combat dominates as you fight across the deck overlooking a runway frozen in chaos: aircraft locked mid-explosion, debris suspended in time, and a crimson mist bleeding across the sky.

Bring the fight up close in the Barracks and jump up into the ceiling Vent to crawl over and drop down into the Brig. On the Bridge, the hallucination intensifies as the front window blasts outward, glass shards held suspended in the air.

Standoff (Launch)

Remaster, 6v6, Medium-Sized

Remastered for Black Ops 7, Standoff returns with greater visual fidelity than ever before. Revisit your favorite spots on this classic mid-sized map from Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 that played a huge role in casual and competitive play.

Flames erupt from the central tower over the Main Road where a tank and statue mark the intersection in view of the Store, Hostel, House, and Warehouse, each with a second-story viewpoint over the street. Move in close behind the stone walls by the tower to keep out of view or swing around to toward the Gas Station and Graveyard Alley to skirt the outer edge.


Sleighjacked (In-Season)

Variant, 6v6, Small-Sized

Hijacked gets more than just a holiday makeover in this wild festive map variant. The luxury boat has taken to the skies at night, hooked up to a herd of reindeer flying over the city.

[[BO7-SEASON-01-ANNOUNCEMENT-XXX]]

Dubbed “Smooth Sleighing” for the holidays, this rethemed classic is lit up with garlands, lights, wreaths, and other decorations all celebrating the season of giving.

Yakei (Mid-Season)

Brand-New, 6v6/2v2, Small-Sized

The sky’s the limit. Chase enemies over the rooftops of a cluster of buildings in this Japanese cityscape, the night sky casting an eerie glow over the Ducts, Vents, and other industrial components.

High above the neon-soaked streets, the rooftops of a dense Japanese city become the stage for betrayal. Tech and lightLights pulse through the skyline as Alden Dorne closes in on David Mason. Navigate a labyrinth of ducts, vents, and industrial structures under an eerie night glow, where vertical combat and relentless pursuit turn every ledge into a fight for survival.

Use your Wall Jump to leap over gaps with sheer drops below and flank enemies through the Maintenance passage and around Electric equipment. Yakei fits plentiful tactical opportunities across its three-lane layout; make the most of them and rule the rooftops for the win.

MULTIPLAYER CONTENT SUMMARY

New Multiplayer Map

Jackpot

Inspired by Black Ops 4, Core, 6v6, Medium-Sized

_ _

Step into the Casino Luttazzi, where luxury meets chaos. Inspired by the “High Rollers” Campaign mission from Black Ops 6 and the “Casino” Multiplayer map from Black Ops 4, Jackpot sets the stage for incredible action as Operators battle over the casino floor, the dazzling Stage, and the outer Terrace and Gazebo, dripping with opulence at every turn.

The stakes are sky-high, but the potential payoff is well worth the effort. Hold the central Bar for map control, trade shots between the Slots, or flank targets through the wings. Combining open combat, risky chokepoints, and multiple routes to victory, every match is a gamble, so double down, play the odds, and go all in for the win.


Multiplayer Modes

Turn up the heat with the explosive Cranked Demolition mode arriving alongside two returning favorites: Ransack and Blueprint Gunfight.

Cranked Demolition

New Mode

Turn up the explosive energy in this bomb-based mode as teams alternate between attacking and defending two bomb sites while managing a Cranked timer. Plant, defuse, or eliminate enemies to earn speed Perks and activate a bomb countdown on your Operator. Chain eliminations and play the objective to refresh the bomb timer and earn twice the score for your team.

You can only accrue up to a max of 30 seconds on your Cranked timer at a time, so stay active in the match to refresh it as often as possible. Just don’t let that timer distract you from the ticking match clock; planting and defusing bombs are still the main objective in play!

Ransack

Returning Mode

Put it all on the line in this returning mode where teams attempt to strike it rich by looting and stashing the noblest metal of them all. Score points by looting gold bars from designated piles around the map and off fallen enemies who drop their acquired gold when eliminated.

Each gold pile is activated for a limited time before moving to the next area marked on your HUD and minimap. Fill your pockets and safely return to your team’s deposit zone to score for each delivered bar; but remember that even deposited gold is up for the taking. If a player enters the opposing team’s drop site, they’ll secure gold bars directly from their stash while adding them to their own team’s score if they can get the delivery back to base in one piece.

Blueprint Gunfight

Returning Mode

Add some style to your Gunfight matches by taking on enemy duos using a variety of curated Weapon Blueprints. In each round, all four players are given the same pre-determined class. There are no respawns, so play smart, communicate with your teammate, and clutch up round after round on the way to six wins to cinch the match.

Additional Gameplay Content

Unleash chaos with the new low-cost Combat Bow Scorestreak. Last seen in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, this lightweight bow comes equipped with fiery arrows that ignite on impact and create a patch of flames.

New Scorestreak (MP, ZM)

Scorestreak: Combat Bow

**Type: **Lethal

**Score: **500

**Mastery Badges: **Yes

Heat up the competition with the Combat Bow, providing five explosive-tipped arrows that fire fast and leave a patch of flame at the impact site. Shoot from the hip or down the sight, eliminating enemies with a direct hit while providing momentary area control within the arrow’s flaming remains.

Plus, hit up the Crafting Table in Zombies to singe undead flesh with the Combat Bow!

Zombies: Season 05 Reloaded Content

[table equalcells="1" colwidth=""]

ZOMBIES CONTENT SUMMARY

**Reckoning – Directed Mode: **Get extra guidance on the Main Quest in Reckoning as the crew travels to Project Janus Headquarters in the final chapter of Black Ops 6 Zombies.

**Team Cranked LTM: **Get the crew pumped up with the return of Team Cranked, offering powerful abilities to keep you on the move and hunting the undead. Keep slaying to prevent the Cranked timer from running out!

New Leaderboard Events: Compete for the top spot in two new Leaderboard Events!

Reckoning: Directed Mode

Following the crew’s harrowing adventure in Shattered Veil, the team must decide to choose to help Richtofen in restoring his family, thus stopping S.A.M.’s plan or aid S.A.M. in gaining a body and place themselves in the wrath of Richtofen.

With the mid-season arrival of Directed Mode for Reckoning, players can now benefit from a maximum round cap of 15 plus added guidance when pursuing the Main Quest as they breach Janus Towers, which are on the verge of perilous collapse.

Face off against new enemies like Uber Klaus and a battalion of automated robots alongside undead Project Janus security personnel, scientists, hazmat crews, and other terrifying mutations. Wield the new Gorgofex Wonder Weapon, a living armament loaded with Aether-based energy slugs that can be charged for maximum destructive power. When in a bind, activate and upgrade the new C.A.S.T.E.R. Turret trap to help eliminate surrounding threats.

Players who complete Reckoning on Directed Mode will earn a unique Calling Card variant upon completion along with the “Keepsake” Weapon Charm and an XP payout.

Keep an eye on the Zombies section of our _Black Ops 6 _(https://www.callofduty.com/guides/blackops6) for the official walkthrough of Reckoning Directed Mode, coming soon!

Returning LTM: Team Cranked

Power up and slay zombie after zombie to keep the clock ticking as Team Cranked returns in the mid-season!

In this exhilarating game mode, the Cranked Timer is activated for the whole team after the first undead enemy is eliminated. Once active, you’ll have to work together to keep the timer ticking by chaining eliminations; if the seconds count down to zero, it’s game over.

Eliminate enemies to add more time to the countdown, up to a maximum of 30 seconds at the start of the match. With every round, however, the max allotted time is reduced by one second. Thankfully, the team benefits from some significant advantages encouraging players to remain on the offensive:

  1. The Cranked state amps up all Operators, conferring incredible speed bonuses including faster movement and rapid reloads.
    
  2. The amount of Essence earned by eliminating zombies is increased compared to Standard/Directed matches.
    
  3. All Operators are automatically equipped with the Time Stopper Field Upgrade. Activate it to pause the Cranked timer for the whole team.
    
  4. Grab the rare Time Extended power-up to increase the maximum allowed time; in this mode, every second counts.
    

There are no Wall Buys in Team Cranked; the Mystery Box is your key to greater power. Players earn more Essence while Cranked, however, giving you ample opportunities to spin the box in search of the best tools for the job.

Season 05 Reloaded brings fresh rewards to players who complete the Main Quest after Round 30, with each map awarding a five pack of GobbleGums, and a whopping 15,000 XP payout.

Leaderboard Events: No Cranked, No Glory & Undead Ascension

Look for two new Zombies Leaderboard Events arriving in the mid-season. Climb the ladder and earn rewards starting with No Cranked, No Glory, followed by Undead Ascension coming later in the mid-season.

CALL OF DUTY: WARZONE SUMMARY

**Deadline LTM: **Battle against enemy players as well as enemy combatants known as Hostile Soldiers in this new respawn-enabled LTM where the lowest scoring squads are eliminated throughout the match.

**Call of Duty Endowment (C.O.D.E.) Bowl VI, WSOW: **Two highly anticipated Call of Duty: Warzone tournaments are just on the horizon! Catch all the action live as C.O.D.E. Bowl VI presented by USAA airs on September 30, followed by the World Series of Warzone Global Final on October 1.


Lasting Impact

Following the epic breach into Stadium, Verdansk is forever changed. The roof is now permanently blown off the structure, the interior accessible to all squads. All future deployments to Verdansk will feature the newly revealed area, including within the new Deadline limited-time mode arriving in the mid-season.

New LTM: Deadline

Quads, 100 Players, Players and Hostile Soldiers, Verdansk

There’s no room for stragglers in the new Deadline LTM, so get to work the moment you land in the field. It pays to take risks, as all players are provided with unlimited respawns, but beware overextending and falling behind. With each Circle Collapse, the lowest scoring squads are eliminated from the match, and a wave of enemy combatants called Hostile Soldiers will appear to increase the pressure on the remaining teams.

You’ll have to keep proving yourself throughout the match, as each new circle resets earned score for all squads. To scrape back up from the bottom, focus on eliminating enemies, completing Contracts, looting supplies, and spending cash at Buy Stations to keep that score rolling in.

In Deadline, every action counts. Work with your teammates, keep your cool, and prepare to rebuild from scratch after each reset.
