. There are a few highlights that we know about – the Warzone revamp and a fresh batch of new maps for Multiplayer and Zombies are the real draws – but there are plenty of other surprises hidden in today’s update that should get players excited. This includes a handful of new Operators, such as one based on the franchise’s long-running

character, and information about the launch of Ranked Play later this month.

Treyarch says ****** Ops 6 Ranked is an experience it has been working toward since 2021’s Call of Duty: Vanguard. Expect to see it launch November 21 with what the team is calling “several streamlined features, innovations, and updates,” including changes to the ranking system to focus more on skill, a forfeit feature, and map/mode voting.

Warzone is another attractive feature coming with Season 1 and includes the previously revealed Area 99 Resurgence map. Every subsection of the map essentially works as its own smaller map to ****** through, with the entire setting themed after an abandoned government testing site from the ‘50s that bears a striking resemblance to the fan-favorite Multiplayer map, Nuketown. ****** Ops 6 Warzone Season 1 will also see the return of the Urzikstan and Rebirth Island maps as well as the Plunder game mode.

The standard Multiplayer game mode, meanwhile, is getting three new maps at launch: Hideout, Heirloom, and Extraction. Modes like Ransack and Prop Hunt are also coming with Season 1, as are new weapons like the Krig C ******** rifle, Sirin 9mm special *******, AMR Mod 4 *******, and even a power drill melee tool. Zombies fans can also look forward to three new GobbleGums and a new map called Citadelle des Morts that looks like a dusty medieval castle.

Much of what is shown today will arrive when ****** Ops 6 Season 1 drops November 14, but players will have to wait for the mid-season update to see everything the introductory season has to offer. This includes things like Warzone Ranked as well as new Multiplayer maps Hacienda and Racket. Nuketown will also get a holiday makeover around this time. While Zombies additions like the story-driven Directed mode will come with launch, that creepy castle is another Season 1 goodie that won’t arrive until the mid-season update.

Call of Duty: ****** Ops 6 Season 1 will continue Treyarch’s strong start following launch late last month. One
