Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies is a hit, but its true test is just around the corner

The early reception of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies has been quite positive, but the next step for the mode will be a real make-or-break moment.

With that in mind, fans are also noticing what they think are potentially subtle hints and teases about upcoming plans for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies. According to Reddit community member finster20071234, the latest tip may be a follow-up to Call of Duty: Black Ops 3-era Zombies Chronicles DLC, based on a clear detail of a new premium skin sold in the IDEAD Tracer Pack.



Call of Duty Zombies fans believe a Weaver skin could hint at Zombies Chronicles 2

According to a screenshot shared by finster20071234, the new Repairman skins don Zombies character Grigori Weaver in a closed red jumpsuit covered in sewn-on patches based on classics Call of Duty Zombies maps, including Der Eisendrache, Shangri-La, Shi No Numa, Tranzit, Kino Der Toten, Moon, The Giant and Buried. Given that the patches are made to resemble tourist patches that travelers will wear to show where they've been, the patches naturally imply that Weaver has struggled in all of these places. It also happens that several of the maps referenced were once part of Zombies Chronicles, a Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 Zombies map pack that remastered eight Zombies maps from the previous games, allowing players to catch up with the Zombies timeline.


Reactions from the comments were mixed, with some players concluding that it makes sense for Treyarch to celebrate one of its most popular modes by bringing back favorite maps. Others suggested that the patches are just an easter egg reference to the old maps and questioned whether Treyarch would really be willing to remake so many classic Call of Duty Zombies maps. Some veteran Zombies players pointed out that some of the maps referenced, like Shi No Numa, have already been reintroduced multiple times in multiple games. Treyarch bringing them back again as a premium DLC could rub customers the wrong way and invite accusations of “recycling” content.


Whether the Weaver outfit is just an easter egg or a hint of future plans, the discussion reflects how long the Zombies have been around as part of the whole Call of Duty franchise. Treyarch clearly has plans for the mode, whether they involve reviving beloved content or exploring new frontiers in zombie combat.
