Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and Warzone have been cooking as of recent. It makes sense they wouldn't slow down, and Season 2 is packed to the brim with awesome new stuff. There's a lot to look at, so you can take a look at the summaries below. For the entire shebang, check out the Call of Duty Blog here.
ENDGAME CONTENT SUMMARY
Guild Strikes: Alden Dorne unleashes hell across Avalon in a last-ditch effort to eradicate the JSOC teams. Surprise strikes may occur throughout Avalon, transforming a location into a Nightmare Zone, ensuring no match is the same. These zones have increased difficulty and a Strike Boss that can be defeated for high-tier rewards.
New Skill Track and Abilities: Season 02 introduces the Eagle Eye Skill Track, focused on precision, critical damage, and weapon efficiency. Mid-Season, players can unlock two new Abilities — Sentinel Protocol and Blood Burner — adding powerful support and traversal options to Endgame Operator loadouts.
Glitches (Mid-Season): After defeating a Strike Boss, a Glitch will appear: a mysterious, repeatable, off-map experience where you and up to three others need to survive six waves and defeat the Glitch boss to acquire Nightmare Skills.
MULTIPLAYER CONTENT SUMMARY
Multiplayer Maps: The Multiplayer map pool expands with a huge selection of brand-new and returning favorites. Launch maps include Torment, Sake, Nexus, and the remastered Slums, while the Mid-Season adds Torque, Cliff Town (a reimagined Yemen), Mission: Peak, and the return of Grind and Firing Range.
Multiplayer Modes: A wide lineup of modes arrives throughout the season, led by returning favorites like Safeguard and Overdrive. In-Season additions include limited-time modes such as Luck Confirmed, Solo Hearts Moshpit, and Third Wheel Gunfight, with Gauntlet and Infected coming Mid-Season.
Black Ops 7 Ranked Play: Ranked Play returns as the definitive competitive experience for Black Ops 7, launching with the same rules, modes, maps, and Loadout restrictions as the CDL. Win 3 Placement Matches to receive a starting Rank and then earn SR (Skill Rating) after matches to progress your Rank. Unlock Ranked Play rewards such as Rank Skins, Rank Camos, Blueprints, and more by climbing the Ranks and racking up wins. Competitive integrity features keep matches fair and competitive.
New Scorestreak and Multiplayer Events: Jump into Multiplayer-focused Events offering new Weapon Blueprints, with a special Camo-focused Event allowing players to earn multiple Camos across all weapon classes. In the Mid-Season, earn the Lockshot Scorestreak — a smart pistol that locks onto and eliminates multiple targets at once.
ZOMBIES CONTENT SUMMARY
New Survival Map: Mars: The fourth Survival map drops players into an ancient temple buried beneath the sands of the red planet. Fight through relentless waves where players face the culmination of the Astra Malorum Main Quest, accessing helpful machines, one with Wonder Weapon potential, and push into deep rounds to earn unique rewards.
Zombies Modes: Cursed Survival and Starting Room: Fresh Zombies modes arrive at launch, each testing survival skills in different ways. Cursed Survival challenges players across all Survival maps with a pistol start, limited HUD, and a BO3-inspired points system, while Starting Room traps crews in a sealed map entrance where endurance and skill are the keys to unlocking rewards.
Mid-Season Round-Based Map and New GobbleGum: The narrative deepens in the Mid-Season as the crew’s fate after Astra Malorum leads them toward the new Round-Based Zombies map Paradox Junction, as well as a new Scorestreak, and the new Turncoat GobbleGum, allowing nearby zombies to fight on your behalf.
Zombies Events: Expect multiple Zombies-focused Events, including Mars Survival and Dead Ops Arcade Leaderboard Events that reward players based on their Highest Round Reached (Survival) and High Score (DOA 4). Compete to earn Universal Camos, Weapon Blueprints, and other rewards, with a special Camo-focused Event allowing multiple Camos across all weapons!
