Black Ops 6 Zombies: New Tomb Map & Quality-of-Life Updates

Mar 12,2025 Author: Sadie

Treyarch is celebrating 115 Day with a mystery box of announcements for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies, including the unveiling of a new map: The Tomb.

This January 15th celebration is a special occasion for Call of Duty players, featuring a comprehensive blog detailing upcoming zombie-themed surprises. The highlight is The Tomb, a new sandy Zombies map debuting with Season 2 on January 28th. This marks another addition to the Zombies universe, following Season 1's Citadelle des Morts, arriving in less than two weeks.

Treyarch's story summary reveals that after the events of Citadelle des Morts, Weaver, Grey, Carver, and Maya follow Gabriel Krafft's instructions to an excavation site to secure the Sentinel Artifact. These ancient catacombs, dating back to 2500 B.C.E., remained undisturbed until the early 1900s, hinting at mysteries yet to be uncovered.

The Tomb is described as a mysterious area connected to a British archaeologist, Sir Archibald Fotherington-Smythe, though further details remain scarce.

Gameplay-wise, The Tomb offers a similar experience to Liberty Falls—a smaller map with a focus on replayability and hidden Easter eggs. Treyarch also teases a reimagined Wonder Weapon inspired by previous games and the return of an iconic SMG.

Season 2 also promises quality-of-life improvements, including community-requested features. Players can now track up to 10 Calling Card and 10 Camo challenges across Zombies and Multiplayer. Zombies gains a co-op pause option, and players can rejoin matches with their loadouts if disconnected. Separate HUD presets for Zombies and Multiplayer will also be implemented.

To celebrate 115 Day, Black Ops 6 players receive double GobbleGum, player, weapon, and Battle Pass XP until 10 AM PT on January 21st. Treyarch shared Directed Mode statistics, revealing over 480 million hours played. The team states that Directed Mode's goal was to grow the Zombies community by guiding new players through Main Quests, resulting in a more than doubled Main Quest completion rate (from 3.38% to 8.23%).

The voice acting for The Tomb will be of particular interest to fans, following Activision's announcement of recast Zombies characters due to the SAG-AFTRA strike.
