Black Ops Cold War Season One Zombies content revealed

Activision and Treyarch have announced what Zombies fans can expect in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War with the new Season One update.

Season One officially begins in the game on December 16. There’s no new Zombies map for players to experience, but there is other Zombies content within the current map to explore.

The new update will feature new modes and features for Zombies fans. Among these additions will be holiday-themed zombies and a new mode inspired by Modern Warfare’s “cranked” mode.

In a tweet, Treyarch has highlighted what fans can expect:

  • Jingle Hells holiday LTM
  • Battle Pass weapons
  • Daily Challenges
  • Season Challenges
  • New Calling Cards
  • 2-player splitscreen
  • Cruise Missile Support
  • Holiday Onslaught
  • 2 Onslaught maps
  • Cranked LTM (mid-season)

And, here’s a breakdown of the new modes in Season One:

Jingle Hells (Launch Week)

This limited-time holiday mode turns “Die Maschine” into more of a winter wasteland than a wonderland, and there’s plenty of cheer to keep you in the yuletide mood. Aside from the new holiday decorations, expect a variety of festive firepower to augment your offensive capabilities including snowballs that can freeze zombies, stocking power-ups, presents you can extract from frozen foes, and special surprises waiting inside the snowmen.

Cranked (In Season)

A limited-time mode both literally and figuratively! Keep one eye on the countdown timer, and the other on your zombie-killing: spend too long without an undead takedown and you’ll explode! There’s no time to lose as your survival depends on frantic, terror-filled takedowns where the only respite is the Cranked power-up, granting a brief breather before the carnage continues.

Black Ops Cold War Season 1 launches 11PM PT December 15, 2020.
