When is BO6 Season One Reloaded?
The Black Ops 6 midseason update is scheduled to release on Thursday, Dec. 5. The news was confirmed by Treyarch in a social media post confirming the launch date of the new BO6 Zombies map, Citadelle des Morts.
Like previous updates, it should go live around 11am CT on that day, so prepare to clear your schedule or call in sick if you’re looking to grind the new stuff.
What’s in BO6 Season One Reloaded?
New Zombies map and updates
The latest round-based Zombies experience hits alongside the midseason update as its main attraction. Citadelle des Morts is based somewhere in Europe inside of a castle and surrounding village.
Additional updates for BO6 Zombies in the patch include a new Perk-a-Cola, new Field Upgrade, new Ammo Mod, 18 new Augments, three new GobbleGums, new Wonder Weapons, and a new enemy type.
New maps, including an old favorite
Three additional maps make their way to multiplayer in Season One Reloaded, including the return of Black Ops 4 favorite Hacienda, a six-vs-six map. The second new map is Racket, a Strike map based inside of a gold vault, and the third is a winter holiday-themed variant of Nuketown just in time for winter break.
Three new weapons
The Maelstrom shotgun, AMR Mod 4 sniper rifle, and Cleaver melee weapon will be making their way into player loadouts shortly after Season One Reloaded as rewards that are part of an event, similar to how players had to participate in The Hit List event to unlock the Sirin 9mm and Power Drill weapons.
New limited time modes
“Expect additional and festive Limited Time Modes to continue into the Holiday Season, with a full reveal at Season One Reloaded,” Activision said. Data miners have already pointed to the return of the CODMAS event, which includes seasonal modes and rewards such as blueprints to earn.
New Perk and Wildcard
A new Perk and Wildcard are coming within the update, and their descriptions can be found below:
- Perk 3: Shrapnel Radar (Recon)
- “Dealing blast damage to enemies will reveal them on your minimap. This includes any enemies affected by your area-of-effect Tacticals, Lethals, and Field Upgrades.
- Wildcard: High Roller
- “Equip a fourth Scorestreak.”
Ranked BR in Warzone
Rejoice! The long-awaited return of ranked battle royale comes in Season One Reloaded, bringing new skins and the Ranked Play grind back to Urzikstan after going missing for the last few seasons of MW3 and the beginning of BO6.
