There’s some new content coming to Warzone in Season 2, but this seasonal update will primarily include gameplay tuning, weapon balancing, and quality of life upgrades for Battle Royale players.

What’s coming to Black Ops 6 in Season 2?
While Black Ops 6’s first season had multiplayer-focused content followed by zombie-focused content midway through the season, the launch of Season 2 is set to release maps for both multiplayer modes.
Multiplayer
One of the new multiplayer maps may be a favorite among Black Ops 2 fans.
The new season will launch with three new multiplayer maps: Bounty, Dealership, and Lifeline. Each map has some connection to the Luttazzis, reflecting the theme of the season.
Two more maps, Bullet and Grind, will be added in the mid-season update. Grind is a returning map from the Black Ops 2 DLC packs, continuing the trend of Black Ops series maps returning in Black Ops 6 – there’s supposed to be “Extra surprise” Related to this map will be released sometime mid-season, but there are no details on what that might be yet.
There is a team-adjacent mode to Deathmatch, Overdrive, where players fight to reach maximum stars before the enemy team. Regular eliminations reward one star, but headshot and melee kills reward two stars. Special eliminations and kills earn players three stars.
Players who kill together quickly enough will receive boosts including breaking through walls, regenerating health, increased movement and reload speeds, improved shooting accuracy, and improved running speeds for shooting and aiming.
Season 1 reintroduced the fan-favorite Prop Hunt playlist, and now Season 2 will reintroduce Gun Game. This game mode has players working their way through the game’s arsenal, with each kill upgrading them to a new weapon. Being killed with a knife demotes the player to the previous pistol level.
With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, Third Wheel Gunfight will allow players to take on competitive mode in teams of three, while Couples Dance Off is a Gunfight mode designed exclusively for duos.
Two new Enforcer features have been added to multiplayer. Slipstream increases an enemy’s base speed at the expense of tactical enemy elimination, and Hunter’s Instinct marks the closest enemy to you after elimination. The new Flyswatter wildcard allows players to swap their custom melee weapon into a launcher.
The new and improved War Machine has been updated to compete in a fast-paced game like Black Ops 6.

Zombies
One of Origins’ wonder weapons is making a return to Black Ops 6’s Zombies game.
new zombie map, The gravewill be released at the beginning of the second season. The return of the Origins Ice cast has also been officially confirmed. Along with a brand new easter egg that will push the Dark Aether story forward, it looks like the new map will include the Abominating, Amalgam, and Doppelghast zombie variants that were introduced in previous maps.
A new version of the Mimic zombie, the Shock Mimic, will make its debut in The Tomb. Disguising themselves as useful items, these zombies attract players before releasing a static discharge that deals damage, obscures vision, and distorts the minimap.
The Shock Mimic is a deadlier version of the familiar face of the undead.
Black Ops 6’s next feature, Death Perception, is a returning feature from Black Ops 4 zombies. This feature allows players to see zombies through walls and other obstacles, which will help them within the tight confines of the tomb. New power-ups will allow players to improve weapon modifications, critical hits, or farm more essence early in the game.
There will also be three new GobbleGums when Season 2 launches. The epic Dead Drop GobbleGum increases the drop rate of salvage and equipment for five minutes. GobbleGum will likely see a lot of use in the high-round zombie community, where players typically rely on strategies that use a lot of saves very quickly.
The legendary Modified Chaos GobbleGum significantly reduces ammo modification cooldowns by 2 minutes. The eccentric Quacknarok GobbleGum adds rubber duck inner tubes to all zombies for three minutes, if that’s your thing.
Developer Treyarch Previously teased The return of the fan-favorite zombie SMG – which turns out to be the PPSh-41, as seen in the Season 2 trailer.
