Three times the undead, Black Ops 4’s new Zombies mode revealed

Today, we received a large amount of information on the latest entry in the Call of Duty series, Black Ops 4 (stylized as Black Ops IIII). This time, players will experience three different time periods one day one for the first time.

This is the first time a Call of Duty will offer three different Zombie experiences on day one and each will feature completely different time periods. IX will focus on ancient Rome as the players are stuck in a gladiator death battle with the undead. Voyage of Despair will follow a ship-robbery gone wrong as zombies take over the passengers leaving the players trapped on a ship with an army of zombies. And lastly, Blood of the Undead, a remake of Black Ops 1’s Mod of the Dead.

Black Ops 4 Zombies will feature the deep gameplay and easter eggs that the rabid community of fans devours. It also includes the most customizable action to-date, new systems for creating and completing community challenges, and social systems designed to connect players. Black Ops 4 also reintroduces difficulty levels and an in-game tutorial to onboard new players to the Zombies universe, while giving hardcore players the option of ratcheting up the challenge. Additionally, Zombie Rush is a brand new mode that streamlines the gameplay experience, introducing enticing new challenges to grizzled veterans, while creating a whole new tempo of gameplay for newcomers.

We will have plenty of hands-on experience from our own Mike Dunn coming very soon. Call of Duty: Black Ops IIII will be released on October 12th, 2018.
