A Packed Multiplayer Suite
Let's get straight to the point: 18 multiplayer maps are available right now. This isn't a drip-feed; it's a full-blown arsenal of locations to learn and master. The variety is designed to support everything from tight, tactical Search & Destroy matches to chaotic Hardpoint rotations. For players who felt recent launches were a bit light on map count, this is a significant return to form and a huge plus for the longevity of the initial grind.
Co-Op Campaign and Replayable Endgame
The narrative pits David Mason against the infamous Raul Menendez in a story designed for cooperative play. After the credits roll, the fight isn't over. A dedicated Endgame mode allows you and your squad to replay missions with new objectives and modifiers, adding a layer of replayability that campaigns often lack. It's a smart way to keep the story relevant long after your first playthrough.
Zombies Returns to its Roots
The community asked, and Treyarch listened. Round-Based Zombies is back. Players will be heading into the Dark Aether for the classic survival experience that defined the mode. Forget the open-world experiments for a moment; this is about holding out, training hordes, and chasing high rounds with your crew. The launch also includes an Ultra GobbleGum Pack for those who picked up the Vault Edition, giving you a head start on crafting the perfect loadout for survival.
What's in the Vault Edition?
For players who want the complete package, the Vault Edition is the premium option. It bundles the game with a ton of extras, including the BlackCell battle pass for the first season, exclusive Operator Skins, several Mastercraft weapon blueprints with unique tracers, and the previously mentioned Ultra GobbleGum Pack for Zombies. It's a significant value if you plan on investing heavily in the game's cosmetic and progression systems.
Alongside the launch, the Call of Duty Endowment (C.O.D.E.) Legacy: Tracer Pack is also available for purchase. As always, 100% of the net proceeds go directly to helping veterans find high-quality employment, allowing you to support a great cause while adding some unique gear to your collection.
