"Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Unveils New Zombies Features for Season 2"

Exciting updates are on the horizon for fans of *Call of Duty: Black Ops 6*, especially those who enjoy the thrilling Zombies mode. As Season 2 approaches, set to launch on January 28, 2025, a range of new features and improvements are set to enhance your gaming experience. From the introduction of co-op pausing to innovative loadout recovery systems, here's what you can look forward to in the upcoming update.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies Changes for Season 2

  • Co-op Pause: A long-requested feature, co-op pausing, is finally making its way to Zombies mode. If all players are in the same party, the party leader can pause the game, allowing everyone to regroup, strategize, or take a quick break during those intense high-round runs.

  • AFK Kick Loadout Recovery: Ever been kicked from a match for being inactive? With the new AFK Kick Loadout Recovery feature, you can now rejoin and reclaim your original loadout. This is a game-changer for maintaining progression and minimizing frustration, especially when disconnections occur due to reasons beyond your control.

  • Separate HUD Presets for Zombies and Multiplayer: Say goodbye to the hassle of switching HUD settings between modes. You'll now be able to customize separate HUD presets for Zombies and Multiplayer, ensuring a seamless transition and tailored gaming experience for each mode.

  • Challenge Tracking & Near Completion (Zombies and Multiplayer):

    • You can manually track up to 10 Calling Card Challenges and 10 Camo Challenges per mode, making it easier to keep tabs on your progress.
    • If you have fewer than 10 challenges tracked, the system will automatically display the nearest challenges to completion, helping you stay focused on those you're close to finishing.
    • The top tracked or near-completion Calling Card and Camo Challenges will be visible in the Lobby and in-game via the Options Menu, providing constant visibility on your progress.

Over a decade since its debut in *World at War*, Zombies remains a cornerstone of the *Call of Duty* experience, and *Black Ops 6* is no exception. With round-based Zombies returning and the addition of new maps like the Tomb map, Treyarch continues to push the boundaries of what this mode can offer. These Season 2 updates are designed to enrich the Zombies gameplay, ensuring players have more control and a smoother experience.

While Zombies enthusiasts have plenty to be excited about, multiplayer fans will also find a lot to enjoy in the Season 2 update. However, the spotlight on Zombies with these new features underscores Treyarch's commitment to evolving this beloved mode. Whether you're diving into high-round strategies or exploring new maps, these changes promise to make *Call of Duty: Black Ops 6* even more engaging.
