Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War and Warzone Season Two begin on February 25th

It’s going to be a great year for Xbox Series X | S and Xbox One as Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War introduces its content-rich second season, which includes four new maps, six freely available weapons, and new ones War zone Sights and especially the new zombies experience Outbreak.

Here’s some content to look forward to in Season 2 on February 25th:

New multiplayer maps

• Apocalypse (6v6, start week): Descend to a Laotian jungle cartel base in the heart of the Golden Triangle in the Apocalypse, a small to medium sized map built for aggressive combat in and around the temple fortress.

• Golova (multi-team, in season): What looks like a picturesque Russian village in the Urals is really a test field for expanding the number program designed by Nikita Dragovich. Fight in the sleepy city, from a massive church to its rows of houses and the industrial park.

• Mansion (2v2, 3v3, in season): This new Gunfight and Face Off card is located in Havana, Cuba, at the Hefe Villa (last seen in the campaign’s “End of the Line” mission) and features expansive courtyards around a centrally-packed space with an exposed balcony that can serve as a risky strength position.

• Miami Strike (6v6, In Season): Rise and Shine, Miami … soon it will be time to infiltrate in broad daylight. When the sun gl istens on colorful murals, the action focuses on a smaller daytime rendering of the original map. The heat is always on the streets of Miami.

New multiplayer modes

• Gun game (Free-For-All, start week): The fan-favorite party game mode is back! Go through a set of 20 weapons, starting with a pistol and ending with a knife. Reset enemies by eliminating them with a melee attack or last pull. The first player to kill an enemy with each weapon wins the match.

• Stock (6v6, start week): Stockpile mixes Kill Confirmed and Hardpoint for a fast-paced, killing-intensive target game mode. Eliminate enemies, collect their dog tags and drop them off at rotating storage sites. Operators can wear and store multiple dog tags at the same time to massively increase scores and EP. But when you are taken out, your tags will be scattered for others.

• Hardpoint (multi-team, in season): Deployment on the largest maps in Black Ops Cold War In this squad-based mode, 10 teams of four are tasked with conquering and defending three hardpoint hills. The hills spin every 120 seconds and the first squad to reach 500 seconds total target time wins the match.

Six new earnable weapons

Season two brings serious firepower with six new weapons:

• FARA 83 (FREE with Tier 15) – This rapid-fire assault rifle is devastating in the hands of skilled operators who can control its reliable accuracy and slower handling.
• LC10 (FREE with Tier 31) – A well-rounded fully automatic SMG that competes in the mid-range due to its solid accuracy and extended effective damage range.

Unlock four more weapons – the R1 Shadowhunter, the Machete, the 20mm ZRG Sniper Rifle, and the Military Triple Shovel E-Tool – by completing the in-game challenges to obtain the basic weapon or by using a bundle with buy the blueprint version when it appears in store.

New zombies experience: breakout

In conjunction with the Dark Aether storyline, Outbreak challenges players with objective play on the largest multiplayer maps in Black Ops Cold War.

Hunt down elite enemies with a satellite tracker, escort a rover that detects dimensional portals, or hold off against the zombies in limited regions of the dark ether – complete your objectives and get to the Exfil site. Will you escape via the helicopter or take your risk on the Dark Aether portal for additional rewards?

New field upgrade: Frenzied Guard

Relieve your teammates with Frenzied Guard, a new field upgrade that, when activated, forces all undead creatures to attack the user for 10 seconds. During this time only the armor is damaged.

Use Aetherium Crystals to enhance Frenzied Guard with powerful modifiers such as: For example, repairing all armor when activated, increasing the duration of the ability to 15 seconds, and slowing down normal enemies while they are active.

New ammunition mod: Shatter Blast

Turn heavy zombies into minced meat with the new ammunition mod Shatter Blast, which causes all bullets to cause explosive damage. Upgrade the skill to deal additional explosive damage to nearby enemies, knock down normal enemies, and double the size of the explosion.

Improve your skills on Tier IV and V.

Two new types of Aetherium Crystals – Refined and Flawless – can now be acquired and used to improve your Level IV and V skills. Hunt high laps in traditional zombies or conduct multiple breakout experiments in a single run for a chance to get these new crystals.

New game modes, points of interest in War zone

The new season brings a fresh pool of loot War zone, including the new weapons and operators of the second season. Plus, play new game modes and explore two new attractions in Verdansk.

In exfiltration, players must locate a portable radio in Verdansk and hold it for a set period of time in order to win the game. The player holding the radio is marked on the tac card along with a timer that tells how long it will be before he wins. Prepare for a frantic battle in Rebirth Island Resurgence Extreme, a time-limited mode that supports up to 90 players.

Regarding the new sights, initial information suggests a cargo tanker has disappeared from the radar, while murmurs around Verdansk suggest something is happening beneath its surface. Explore these new areas at your own risk.

New Battle Pass, Prestige Levels and more

Season two offers all of this and more with a new Battle Pass, four new playable Operators – Naga, Maxis, Wolf and Rivas – new levels of prestige, the Death Machine Scorestreak, Escape Vehicles, a range of new Multiplayer and Zombies challenges, and much more.
