Season 5 introduced original 6v6 maps like Bait and Yard, meta weapons such as the STG44 and the Static-HV, and saw the return of the fan-favorite POI, Superstore, in Warzone Urzikstan. Now that Season 5 is nearing its halfway point, it's time to look ahead to the next major content drop. While fans may be anticipating the inevitable release of Season 5 Reloaded, Activision has finally revealed when fans can expect the mid-season update to be released across all platfo
Brain Rot can be useful in the higher threat tiers where zombies are more likely to randomly spawn in the contract mission area. A turned zombie can not only help pull focus off players and the computer but also will catch and kill mercenaries that are tunnel-focused on shooting the radio stat
Call of Duty 's next major update is expected to arrive with Season 3 Reloaded in early May. As for the franchise's future, a dataminer recently claimed to reveal many of the weapons, killstreaks, and equipment coming in Call of Duty 2024 , including the potential return of the Last Stand pe
As players will be mostly dealing with mercenaries during this contract, mid to long-range weapons will excel at helping keep the Terminus forces away. Armor-piercing rounds can be a huge aid , especially when attempting this contract in the Tier II Threat Area. Battle Rifles like the BAS-B can quickly output a large amount of precision damage, making quick work of the advancing armored assaila
Out of all the maps on this list, Bullet from Black Ops 6 may just be the strangest yet. Bullet arrived as part of the Season 2 Reloaded content drop and is a Strike Map designed for Face Off and Gunfight. What makes this map so unusual is that Bullet takes place entirely on a moving train, featuring only a single lane—a massive departure from what players are typically used to in Call of Du
To start, the overall layout is pretty unconventional, with a large mound dividing the map down the middle. This mound houses the central bunker, an area designed primarily for close-quarters combat. In contrast, the rest of the map is vast and open, offering minimal cover aside from grass, trees, and a few destroyed vehicles, making it a haven for Snipers. Pair all this with the map’s grim color palette and its Chornobyl setting amidst the aftermath of a nuclear disaster , and players are left with a rather unsettling battleground to fight
Infection is set on a World War II battlefield , though there is some debate over whether it takes place in France or Belgium, as the map’s description and various in-game assets suggest both locations. Regardless, its historical setting feels out of place in a futuristic title like Black Ops 3 . However, what makes Infection truly bizarre is the second battlefield attached to it—one that has been completely flipped on its head, resembling a scene straight out of Inception . This 'wall,' as some refer to it, is the map Carentan from the original Call of Duty , serving as a neat Easter egg for longtime fans of the ser
Unlike some events that require the community to band together and achieve a specific target, the MW3 and Warzone Conquest Event involves players completing individual objectives in order to claim the rewards that are up for grabs. Here, find all of the challenges and rewards available during the Modern Warfare 3 and Call of Duty: Warzone Conquest ev
The setting of Outlaw is strange, to say the least, which can once again be attributed to Black Ops 3 taking place within a simulation. To add to the weird factor, a steam train periodically races through the center of the map , fully capable of killing any players caught in its path—similar to previous maps like Express from Black Ops
Treyarch, the studio behind MW3 's Ranked mode, announced earlier this week that Ranked Play would soon begin a test phase to see if additional weapons could be viable in the meta. Before, Ranked Play users almost exclusively equipped weapons like the MCW, Rival-9, and WSP Swarm due to other options being banned or simply not good enough. While a limited selection of weapons isn't anything new to the competitive Call of Duty scene, it seems that Treyarch is trying to improve on this asp
But that's not all, as Modern Warfare Zombies will also receive its major update that will see the conclusion of the Modern Warfare Zombies storyline. For fans dropping into Urzikstan on August 21, look for the final Story Mission , which will send players back to another Dark Aether exclusion zone to take on challenging objectives. On top of a brand-new Story Mission, fans who complete it will also be able to open up another Dark Aether Rift , one which allows players to earn even more rewards, including powerful Schematics like the Disciple Bottle, the Grenade Bandolier, and Stash Increa
Modern Warfare 3 's newest update allows previously banned weapons like the BP50, Holger 556, HRM-9, and Tag collection tactics others to be equipped in Ranked Play until April 23. Feedback and data will determine whether the weapons remain unbanned. As for balance changes, both MW3 and Warzone saw the same adjustments to six weapons. Slight buffs were applied to the MTZ-556, Holger 556, Striker, and MW2 's M16. A slight nerf was applied to the RAM-9 and a more significant nerf was applied to the WSP Swarm, which had its flinch resistance decreased by 81%. Also, the Haymaker's JAK Maglift Kit was nerfed in MW3 only and a common bug causing the MORS sniper rifle's optics to become misaligned was fi
