Rejoice, PlayStation players! Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 it’s almost here. In fact, we’re so close to launch that starting today, if you pre-ordered the game – you can start pre-loading to make sure you’re ready for day one.
Ahead of launch today, we wanted to dive into the MP and Zombies modes to make sure you haven’t missed any details. Let’s break down some key elements based on what to expect.
Multiplayer experience
From current maps and modes to current weapons and gear, playing Black Ops 6 will be an experience unlike any other. There will be the core 6v6 modes you know and love from Call of Duty, as well as the all-new core 6v6 mode, Kill Order, where you must eliminate an enemy high-value target (HVT) while protecting your own. Additionally, you can engage in 2v2 shootouts as well as Face Off in several 6v6 modes. Finally, you’re looking for a challenge where your matches have a circumscribed HUD, genial fire is enabled, and your health is significantly reduced ? Then get ready for Hardcore scheduled to premiere on some playlists.
At launch, we’ll have 16 brand current maps divided into two main categories: twelve brand current 6v6 Core maps and four brand current compact Strike maps, designed to be played in 6v6 or 2v2 setups. We know you’ve seen some beta maps like Scud, Rewind, Skyline, Babylon, and Derelict, but you can expect some amazing, action-packed moments on maps you haven’t seen before.
There’s Lowtown, a waterfront neighborhood with a boathouse, a fishing shack, grates you can climb on, and a canal you can swim in. There’s also the Vault, a gigantic, lush playground set in a desert landscape decorated with monuments, sculptures, a central palace, and even an opulent atrium. And this is only appearances, from October 25 there will be many more maps to discover, not to mention the multitude of maps that will appear in post-launch seasons.
At launch, Black Ops 6 has over 20 Operators to choose from, some of whom are aligned with the Rogue Black Ops faction and others with Crimson One. To give you some information about these operators. Rogue Black Ops is on the run and is being pursued by his former employers. This team tries to discover the truth about the CIA infiltration and expose the conspiracy. Because they no longer have state support, most of their equipment is either improvised, supplied by contacts in other intelligence services, purchased from criminals, or delivered on the promise of an IOU.
They know who is hunting them and call them “Crimson”. Crimson One represents the CIA operation launched to track down the Rogue squad. The team is officially sanctioned by the CIA and has access to all intelligence and tools necessary to complete the task.
By now you should have heard a lot about the current Omnimovement system coming to Black Ops 6, the smoothest movement system in Call of Duty yet. Omnimovement will work in all game modes, but be sure to apply it in multiplayer to experience the action hero spy thriller moments you’ve always dreamed of.
Weapons and equipment
When it comes to the weapons you’ll apply in multiplayer, it all starts with selecting your loadout: the weapons menu, which has been streamlined in Black Ops 6 to provide an accessible, intuitive experience as you level up your weapons over time. Black Ops 6 will introduce a unique arsenal of weapons and equipment to the game – including returning favorites from the Black Ops universe and weapons completely current to the series. A primary and secondary weapon slot will be your bread and butter, but for the first time you have a dedicated third melee weapon slot, ensuring that a knife or stick will always be an option when things get balmy up close. quarter fight.
Finally, the Perk and Wild Card slots in your loadout will change the way you play, so make sure you think strategically when making decisions. Then, tactical and lethal equipment, as well as field upgrades and scorestreaks will complement your arsenal with a range of options unlocked as you level and progress, with some current options such as the stimulating War Cry field upgrade that unites your team, improves movement speed and health regeneration nearby teammates for a low time. Get ready for your gear!
Zombies
Round-based zombies are back in a substantial way, and Treyarch delivers a wealth of gameplay, narrative, and maps in Black Ops 6 Zombies.
For full details on round zombies, check out the previous PlayStation Blog post, but there are a few key things we wanted to remind you of. The core of Black Ops 6 Zombies’ story, which continues the Dark Aether storyline that began in Black Ops Cold War, is its dedicated crew. While you can jump into Zombies with any MP operator, the characters of Weaver, Grey, Carver, and Maya make up the Terminus team, drive the narrative forward, and are the gateway to the most solid experience you can have with this mode.
Then there are the maps, which are basically characters in themselves. Two round-based maps will be available at launch, Terminus and Liberty Falls, with additional maps arriving in post-launch seasons. We also covered these maps in detail in a previous blog post, so check back there for more details, but remember that there will be no shortage of unique and harrowing environments as you and your team fight through increasingly higher rounds.
Finally, the anti-zombie tools at your disposal will be as solid as ever with the return of Perk-a-Cola, Field Upgrades, Wonder Weapons, GobbleGums, Ammo Mods, and the introduction of upgrades that allow you to customize your perks, Ammo Mods, and Field Upgrades.
One more thing! For the first time in Call of Duty Zombies history, if you are playing Zombies solo, you can save your solo match at any time and return to it later, provided you are at full health, not downed, dead, or actively engaged in exfil. (Definitely a relief for many).
Progress and prestige
Black Ops 6 marks the long-awaited return of the more classic Prestige system, returning to Call of Duty and bigger than ever. Players who reach and complete the maximum level of 55 can choose to prestige and start leveling over again (losing some items they’ve already unlocked), but this time with the chance to earn exclusive rewards along the way – – we know it’ll be worth the effort. But Prestige isn’t the only progression system that’s been significantly improved this year.
The Treyarch team set out to build the most rewarding progression and challenge systems ever to appear in a Call of Duty game in Black Ops 6, and there’s plenty of content to unlock on day one. Earn XP by performing well, completing the Goal, earning medals, and completing challenges such as business card challenges and crosshair challenges.
Additionally, current in Black Ops 6, each weapon, loadout, field upgrade, and scorestreak in your loadout comes with a set of MP Master and Zombie Master badges that you can earn as you master each piece of gear.
Here are some of the top details you can expect from Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. Be sure to pre-order and download the game today so you can jump into the game on October 25 and experience it for yourself.
