The upcoming Season 3 of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will introduce a thrilling new Zombies map, Shattered Veil. Following a series of cryptic teasers from developer Treyarch Studios, the new map promises an exciting addition to the game's popular undead survival mode.
Black Ops 6 has steadily expanded its Zombies offerings since launch, delivering diverse locations for players to battle the undead hordes. Shattered Veil follows the Season 2 map, The Tomb, marking another back-to-back release for the popular mode.
Treyarch recently confirmed the new map's name and release window via a teaser image on Twitter. The blurred image highlighted 'Shattered Veil' and confirmed its arrival alongside Season 3.
The upcoming Season 3 update, scheduled for April 3rd, will officially launch Shattered Veil as the fifth Zombies map for Black Ops 6. This follows the recent release of The Tomb in Season 2, demonstrating Treyarch’s commitment to providing regular content updates for the game's Zombies community.
Previous teasers showcased the setting of Edward Richter’s Liberty Falls mansion, hinting at a potential connection to the ongoing Zombies storyline. Fans are eagerly anticipating the new map’s Easter eggs and the role the Dark Aether will play in the unfolding narrative.
Rumors and developer hints suggest Shattered Veil will introduce new gameplay elements. Players can anticipate new Perk-a-Colas, potentially including returning favorites like Double Tap, Mule Kick, and Tombstone. The addition of a new Ammo Mod and Field Upgrade, such as the rumored Shatter Blast and Frost Blast, will likely shake up combat strategies.
The return of the Wunderwaffe DG-2 as the map’s Wonder Weapon has also been speculated, promising even more firepower against the zombie hordes. While Treyarch confirmed the absence of Amalgams and Abominations, the potential for entirely new Elite enemies adds an element of mystery and anticipation.
