WhenBlack Ops 6fades into the past, I think it will go down as a memorable Zombies game in theCall of Dutyfranchise. And there’s one more ride left to take before it’s gone.
Here’s everything we know so far about thefinalBO6Zombies map, “Reckoning,”and everything else coming inBO6Zombies season five on Aug. 7.
BO6 Zombies season 5 patch notes
New map: Reckoning
Take the fight to Janus Towers inBO6Zombies’ final map,Reckoning. The team arrives and all hell breaks loose, leaving the foursome to save the day once more as part of the ongoingCoDDark Aether storyline.
“The towers’ systems appear to be critically damaged, and total failure is imminent,” Activision said. “Stabilizing the Aether Reactors seems to be the initial overriding goal, before even greater threats must be faced.”
The main quest for Reckoning goes live on Aug. 7 at 11am CT.
New Wonder Weapon: Gorgofex
Reckoning’s Wonder Weapon,Gorgofex, is a powerful hand cannon that has some unique capabilities.
“Combining fungal, floral, and insectile traits to deliver precise impact damage and gravity-defying disruption in close quarters, glowing membranes on the weapon show hints of motion and circulation under the surface,” Activision said. “The weapon seems to pulse and breathe, with a beating central heart-like organ that ‘pumps’ energy through the weapon. Due to the saturation of Dark Aether and other unknown energies, the weapon is said to emit faint psychic vibrations.”
Shooting Gorgofex will create an area-of-effect damage field that dissipates outward and inflicts damage in a wider area.
New Elite enemy: Uber Klaus
The robot Klaus got a big upgrade for this final mission.Uber Klauscomes equipped with a giant mech suit as the map’s new elite enemy, sure to throw a wrinkle in the team’s plans.
“The secret Research and Development program of Project Janus appears to have been more evolved than originally thought, developing many more robots in the Klaus Assembly Lab than first anticipated,” Activision explained. “The greatest of these threats is the Uber Klaus – a murderous automaton encased in a toughened, bulky exoskeleton – that maintains a cocky attitude, lethal efficiency, and super strength, all directed at newly-programmed threats”
New Field Upgrade: Mister Peeks
Everyone’s favorite demented plush bunny is a reward from an in-season event, and is a throwable Field Upgrade that “gleefully attracts normal and Special enemies and attacks any undead within his wandering radius, savaging foes until they explode in a shower of bright confetti. “
New weapons
Four new weapons in season five ofBO6include thePML 5.56LMG,ABR A1assault rifle,Boxing Glovesmelee weapon, andGravemark .357 Revolver(mid-season), all with their own camo challenges to unlock.
