Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 has officially revealed that Zombies mode is returning with its upcoming launch in November. The announcement came along with a cinematic trailer. In particular, the video showcased the expanded character roster, new story elements, and a scary villain. At the same time, Activision and Treyarch showed the Beta schedule for Black Ops 7.
Zombies Mode: Expanded Story and Cast
Fan-favorite Zombies mode first appeared in World at War back in 2008. It has since become a key part of the franchise. Even many years later, this survival mode remains one of the most anticipated features of every franchise entry.
The new Ashes of the Damned trailer shows that Black Ops 7 picks up directly after the events of Black Ops 6.
According to Treyarch, the Black Ops 6 crew will find themselves transported into the Dark Aether after the Janus Towers battle. Also, the dimension introduces a new scary villain with a southern accent. This enemy carries caged zombie skulls that can take life force from the crew.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 also features additional members and new incarnations of the original Zombies legends:
- Edward Richtofen
- Elizabeth Grey
- Grigori Weaver
- Mac Carver
- Maya Aguinaldo
- Nikolai Belinksi
- Takeo Masaki
- Tank Dempsey
Likewise, Treyarch has revealed that these are unique interpretations of the original crew. So, players can expect new dynamics to the storyline.
Largest Round-Based Map Yet
GameSpot reported that Black Ops 7 will feature the biggest round-based map in the mode. Specifically, the map takes inspiration from the Tranzit map of Black Ops 2. It spans across the Dark Aether dimension with connected areas. At the same time, the developers are adding a new Wonder Vehicle for exploring the map.
Open Beta Schedule
Aside from the exciting Zombies mode, Treyarch has also confirmed the Black Ops 7 Beta. Divided into two phases, the game will have an Early Access Beta before the main Open Beta. The former runs from October 2 to 5. However, it is for players who pre-ordered the game. In contrast, the latter starts on October 5 and ends on October 8. This one is free for all players. The Beta periods begin at 10 AM PT and both require an internet connection. Also, access to the Beta period varies depending on the pre-ordered game version. Still, players can access the Open Beta without pre-ordering.
What’s Next?
With so many details yet to be revealed, the studio has promised an intel blast next week. Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 launches on November 14 across PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
