Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 also marks the epic return of Round-Based Zombies, the fan-favorite mode that sees players slay hordes of the undead in two brand new maps at launch. After launch, players can look forward to even more exciting maps and new gameplay experiences in both Multiplayer and Zombies.
