Outbreak Game Mode
After weeks of leaks and speculation, the Outbreak game mode has finally been revealed.
Described as a new, large-scale Zombies experience unlike any other, squads of four will work together to complete a range of new objectives while eliminating endless waves of the undead.
Players can expect to encounter new opposition as they attempt to discover even more secrets on Projekt Endstation.
New Field Upgrade
A brand-new Field Upgrade will be arriving as part of Season 2. Once activated, Frenzied Guard will alert all enemies to the location of the user.
This can be helpful when other players are surrounded by the undead, and is a sure-fire way of racking up plenty of points in a short period of time.
The Field Upgrade can be upgraded using Aethrium Crystals, which range from repairing armor, increasing its duration, and slowing all enemies to walking speed.
New Ammo Mod
When Pack-A-Punching a weapon and using the Elemental Pop Perk, players will receive the Shatter Blast Ammo Mod.
The mod gives all bullets the ability to deal explosive damage. Every bullet also has the chance to explode, which deals even more explosive damage and destroys any armor that it comes into contact with.
New Skills Tiers
The launch of Season 2 brings two new types of Aetherium Crystals to Zombies. Refined and Flawless crystals can be used to upgrade all available skills to Tier 4 and Tier 5.
To earn the new crystals, attempt to run the gauntlet and make it into the higher rounds of a Zombies match or opt to complete several investigations in Outbreak to further improve Ammo Mods, Field Upgrades, and more.
