Rumors are swirling around the upcoming Season 3 of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, despite its recent delay. Leaked information suggests a significant content drop is on the horizon, including multiple 6v6 multiplayer maps and a healthy dose of Zombies content, offering a glimmer of hope for players eagerly anticipating the update.
Treyarch, the developer behind Black Ops 6, has remained tight-lipped about the specifics of Season 3, only stating that it represents a “big moment” for both Black Ops 6 and Warzone. This has only fueled speculation and anticipation amongst the community.
A prominent Call of Duty leaker, known as TheGhostOfHope, has recently disputed the notion that Season 3 will focus solely on Warzone. Instead, they claim the update will introduce between four and six new 6v6 multiplayer maps, along with “a ton of zombies content.” Further fueling excitement, TheGhostOfHope also mentioned that at least one of these maps will be a remaster of a classic map from a previous Black Ops title. Given Black Ops 6’s history of reviving fan-favorite maps like Nuketown and Grind, this prospect has sparked considerable interest.
It's important to remember that leaks should always be taken with a grain of salt. Development plans can change, and with Season 3 not expected until April 3rd, Treyarch’s priorities could shift. This means the final content delivered might differ from what has been leaked.
Other rumors surrounding Season 3 suggest the potential arrival of a controversial Modern Warfare Operator in Black Ops 6. However, until official confirmation from Treyarch, these rumors remain just that - rumors.
Looking beyond Season 3, speculation about the future of the Call of Duty franchise is already underway. Rumors suggest that the 2025 Call of Duty title may be a direct sequel to 2012’s Black Ops 2, and could even see a release on last-gen consoles like the Xbox One and PlayStation 4. If true, this decision may disappoint some players hoping for the franchise to fully embrace the capabilities of current-gen hardware.
