THIS CALL OF DUTY: BLACK OPS - COLD WAR ZOMBIES MODE IS PLAYSTATION EXCLUSIVE FOR A YEAR
Tuesday, 27 October 2020
Activision said in early October that Call of Duty: Black Ops - Cold War Zombies will begin a "completely new chapter" with a new structure, new characters, and cross-stage drama for the first time in the series. In light of that, the new zombies' attack mode unveiled today on the PlayStation blog is a little paradoxical as the PlayStation 4/5 is going to be exclusive for a year.
The Zombies attack is basically a two-player gang mode: Players will drop into "locations derived from various multiplayer maps," leaving full custom loadouts intact, but locked inside the barrier created by the "Dark Aether Orb". Killing the zombies will charge the ball; Kill enough zombies and the orb will start moving. Dark ether will take damage if you are outside the orb, so setting up shop in a good location is not an option: you will move when the obstacle occurs, or you will die.
Zombies will attack in "surges" involving more powerful elite enemies, however, he warned that the tight controls of the activation orb can turn even regular mobs into danger. The goal is to kill until you die, get maximum rankings, and unlock rewards that can be used in zombies and multiplayer battles.
