Season 1 of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is live across all platforms.
Alongside new weapons and maps, there are brand-new multiplayer game modes available to play and new modes arriving throughout the course of the season.
Here's everything you need to know about the modes.
Black Ops Cold War Multiplayer Modes
- Prop Hunt - Two teams alternate between being props or hunters each turn. Props disguise themselves as everyday items scattered across the various multiplayer maps. Props also have access to a stun grenade if a hunter gets too close, as well as the ability to deploy clones to sow doubt in your hunter. However, props also automatically whistle every 20 seconds, allowing attentive-eared hunters to focus on their location.
Gunfight
- Game Show - Fight in a studio setting. The card will feature a podium, bleachers and photography equipment
- ICBM - Located inside a remote launch bay of a clandestine launch facility, engage in explosive combat under the gigantic exhausts of an intercontinental ballistic missile
- KGB - Seek shelter behind thick wooden desks and tall library bookcases and get a Gunfight victory for you and your comrade.
- U-Bahn - Descend into the underground tunnels under West Berlin. Look past the lobby and tiled walls of the subway platform and storm the parked train and open subway car using the graffiti covered subway car, central support pillars and other areas as cover during this underground assault.→ All of these maps will be available during launch week.
Black Ops Cold War Multiplayer Modes - Coming Soon
- Drop Kick - The round starts with each team rushing to the location of a briefcase containing nuclear codes.Whoever grabs the briefcase is automatically equipped with a powerful pistol, but it's ideally up to the rest of the team to keep the briefcase safe. The team with the case has access to launch codes, as well as an ever-increasing score for their team.
- Combined Arms: Hardpoint - Victory in Hardpoint goes to the first team to reach the score limit, or the team with the highest score when time is of the essence. Miami is also joining the rotation of the Combined Weapons map in the first season, giving players a total of four 12v12 battlegrounds to choose from.
Zombies Game Modes
- Jingle Hells - Christmas is coming to Die Maschine! In addition to the new Christmas decorations, expect a variety of festive firepower to increase your offensive abilities, including snowballs that can freeze zombies, power-ups, gifts that you can extract from frozen enemies and special surprises that await inside the snowmen.
- Cranked - A limited-time mode both literally and figuratively! Keep one eye on the countdown and the other on your zombie killing: spend too much time without an undead removal and you'll explode! There's no time to waste as your survival depends on frenzied, terror-filled demolitions where the only respite is the Cranked power-up, granting a brief pause before the carnage continues.
