Onsen - 6v6 / 2v2

Head out to the Japanese hot springs in Onsen, but don’t get too relaxed. This spa offers a number of places to cool down, though the central steam bath is where the action is likely to heat up, especially as it offers the perfect cover for incoming attacks. 

Weave past the oni statue on your way to set up heightened cover positions along the main structure, with outbuildings either side of the steam bath.

Summit - 6v6

Summit makes its triumphant return in Black Ops 7! First seen in the original Black Ops, this classic mid-sized map brings Operators to a research facility perched high on the snowy mountains. Wall Jump through tight interior labs, catwalks, and a central control room surrounded by exterior routes and a dangerous cliffside. 

Its balanced three-lane layout supports fast engagements, flanking paths, and vertical sightlines, now explorable through the updated Black Ops 7 movement system.

Hacienda - 6v6

The luxurious vineyard estate returns from Black Ops 6, now with additional maneuvering points via Wall Jumps. Battle through the grand central villa, weave between vineyard paths, and push through the garage and courtyard as firefights erupt across the property. 

With a classic three-lane layout blending tight interior fights and open exterior sightlines, Hacienda delivers fast, tactical engagements in one of the most stylish battlegrounds in the Black Ops series.

Beacon - 6v6

Deploy to the frozen terrain of Beacon, a remote Guild facility blanketed in snow. A destroyed helicopter lies in flaming ruins just outside the map’s border and crates labeled with “Skyveil Array” fill the entrance, offering substantial cover while moving toward the facility.

Inside, hunt down targets within the Housing unit, Monitoring Station, and Storage shed. Watch out for enemies positioned around the central Bridge and take long shots across the distant Tundra. This mid-sized map combines a variety of sightlines, so there’s no wrong approach. Bundle up, head out, and keep warm with aggressive tactics to overwhelm the enemy forces.

Abyss - 6v6 / 2v2

From the Engine to the Torpedo Bay, battle through the confined quarters of a submarine, trading shots along narrow corridors with just enough room to outmaneuver your opponents. Keep a keen eye out for rope Ascenders placed throughout the sub, giving access to the Forward and Aft Decks up top to push for the flank... but be mindful of players at the top of the Sail who have views of the upper decks.

In the interior time your movements through tight spaces while seeking out vantage points throughout, such as the upper walkway in the Forward and Aft Silos. When on the same level as your opponent, dodge and weave amongst the boat’s various obstacles to outmaneuver your foe using any means possible.

Plaza - 6v6

First introduced in Black Ops 2, Plaza has been beautifully remastered for the first time since 2012. With the addition of Wall Jumping and Black Ops 7’s unique arsenal, this is Plaza like you’ve never experienced before.

Battle across the outer Mall and through the Concourse as fireworks burst in the night sky. In the center, engage in fierce fights over the iconic stairwell, rising to an upper platform on both sides, grenades flying as Operators seek to damage enemies on the other side. Explore the luxurious interior locations of the Colossus Resort, including the popular Luna Nightclub alongside high-end shops, the extravagant Red Bar, and other staples of the rich life at sea.

Gridlock - 6v6

Traffic grinds to a halt in the remastered Gridlock, first introduced in Black Ops 4. An explosive heist has left the freeway in shambles over a Japanese city. Battle among overturned vehicles and through the rubble, the remnants of the attack flown across the various shops and Promenade.

Fight through the Garden and Terrace bookending the bath house, or take to the long sightlines down the Street, a delivery truck on either end providing excellent views all around. For a more covered view, head into the Restaurant, offering killer vantage points from multiple angles.

Mission: Trident - 20v20

Season 03 continues to up the map offering in the 20v20 Skirmish mode with Mission: Trident. The Old Arsenal Avalon point of interest is the latest area of operations, with patrol boats assisting in navigating the waterways and shoreline through harbor warehouses and numerous medieval fortifications. 

Seek the helipad on the high ground atop a section of an old cruise liner, with a surprisingly opulent interior. Then watch for rooftop snipers across the long sightlines, ramped bridges, and other thoroughfares.

Ascent

This brand-new special map has been created specifically for the Freerun mode. A bespoke obstacle map with vertigo-inducing jumps and little room for error, you’ll need all your dexterity to survive the lengthy ascension to the top of this map!

Test your movement mastery across ten zones within this map, with only your sure footing to help you. Expect more info on this exciting new mode in the Mid-Season update.

Freerun

Run and climb your way through Ascent, an original map for the new Freerun mode arriving in the Mid-Season that pits ten racers in a sprint to the finish line. Compete for additional rewards in the Mid-Season Freerun Event. 

Heat Wave Havoc

Bring the burn in the new Heat Wave Havoc LTM, challenging players to raise their Heat Level by supporting the team with non-lethal cooperative actions in a Moshpit of Team Deathmatch, Kill Confirmed, Domination, and Hardpoint. 

There are five Heat Levels in all, with each level granting additional abilities that will transform your Operator into a blazing ball of fury. Generate heat through support actions like revealing enemies, scrambling enemy radars, buffing teammates and impairing enemies, capturing and defending objectives, and other non-lethal actions.

The Heat Levels and their corresponding Operator bonuses are as follows:

• Low Heat: Faster Field Upgrade recharge.
• Medium Heat: Faster movement, sprint-to-fire speed, and mid-air mobility.
• Hot: Faster weapon reloads, ADS speed, and swap speed.
• Extra Hot: Equipment refills after eliminating enemies.
• Extra Extra Hot: Increased damage and score for headshots.

Freeze Tag

Following the scorching Heat Wave Havoc, take some time to chill in the new Freeze Tag LTM. When dealt lethal damage, Operators will now become frozen instead of being eliminated. Freezing rival players will earn score for your team. Fellow teammates can save their incapacitated allies by reaching and defending their frozen forms, helping to unthaw them in time to rejoin the fight. The first team to reach the score limit wins.

Demolition

Out with the old, in with the boom. In this explosive returning mode, the attacking team must detonate both bomb sites while the defending team attempts to hold them off, with both sides respawning throughout the match. 

Each round begins with a two-and-a-half-minute timer and everyone on the attacking team is equipped with a bomb. Plant a bomb at either the A or B site to pause the timer and start the countdown to destruction, giving the defending team an opportunity to sweep in and defuse it. Extra time is added when one site is destroyed, though the attackers must detonate both to win the round.

If both teams reach a round tie, then it’s on to Overtime, where both sides fight to be the first to detonate a single site. Push hard and don’t hesitate.

Aim High

First introduced in Black Ops 6, Aim High returns, the perfect headshot trainer for sharpshooters of all skill levels. Compete in a variety of game modes where headshots instantly eliminate enemies, while shots against any other part of the body deal minimal damage. Outfit your Loadouts for precision and aim for the noggin.

Snipers Only

All warmed up from the Aim High playlist? Turn the challenge up a notch with Snipers Only, a pure sniping experience where Equipment, Secondary Weapons, Field Upgrades, and Scorestreaks are all restricted to keep the focus on the rifle in your hands. Take aim, breathe, and make your shots count.

New Scorestreak

Scorestreak: Ion Core (In-Season)

Weekly Challenge Reward

• Score: 1175
• Mastery Badges: Yes

A powerful radioactive device that damages enemies in a large area. Radiation pulses pass through walls, expanding from a small to large radius before dissipating and recharging.

Punish the enemy team by deploying this area denial device that pulses damaging radiation for several seconds before resetting for the next pulse. The Ion Core spreads over a mid-sized radius, even damaging enemies through walls, making it great for protecting objectives and choke points.

Overclock Abilities

• Plutonium Core: A longer duration grants an additional radiation pulse. 
• Chemical Catalyst: Shorter downtime between radiation pulses.

New Map: Totenreich

“Welcome to Eidskallen – Sorry about the reception committee.” — The Twins

The time loop is broken, and following the Dark Heart’s defeat in Paradox Junction, the Twins transport the crew to a new destination: Eidskallen, a Norse fishing village on a blustery, windswept coast that has been inhabited since the late Bronze Age. Historians have noted that the site has been occupied through the centuries, all the way to the age of Vikings, and into modern times. Indeed, evidence of medieval Norse structures can be found across the island, from burial mounds, a feasting hall, and a strange stave church. All overlooked by an ominous lighthouse, still shining its light into the gloom.

The entire settlement has been ripped from reality, casting the Group 935 research base and their hulking mechanical machinations into the Dark Aether.

“… this place… is mein legacy.”

Deploy to the frozen birthplace of nuclear fire and explore the ancient village that Group 935 transformed into a research base hiding sinister secrets.

Totenreich: Giants Collide

As a towering Shadowsmith threatens to crush them underfoot, the crew barely escapes. The gigantic creature is bound to this place, and you must explore the island to get to the bottom of its dark past.

Uncover rickety pathways and use ziplines to cross frozen, icy waters as you navigate the island.

Totenreich: New Enemy: Necropincer

Tales tell of a doomed undead Viking warrior spirit—known to some as a Draugr— challenging invaders to vicious armed combat. It seems the presence and the sheer brutality of Group 935 have awakened an unnatural aberration that rises from the cold seas to aid in the protection of Eidskallen. Said to be summoned by those “followers of the old ways,” these frightening chimeras now attack on sight, perhaps driven mad after further experimentation by Group 935 itself.

The Necropincer wields a trident, piercing and stabbing adversaries who venture too close, while throwing the weapon at more distant foes. With its giant crab claw in place of a left arm, the creature can also block incoming shots and use this pincer to slam and bludgeon. This is an enemy equally prepared for offense and defense. A relentless combatant, the Necropincer exemplifies the cold death awaiting those unable to stand up against its formidable aggression.

Totenreich: New Wonder Weapon: Jotunn Star

Mastery Badges Available for this Weapon

Forged when Odin ruled the sky and giants walked the land, this ancient lantern casts death-dealing fireballs and strikes down foes with a barbed iron chain. Are you worthy to wield it?

This wide-sweeping Melee Wonder Weapon can take on even the most cold-hearted of enemies, stealing their souls for use in generating devastating attacks. A Norse artifact fortunately hidden from Group 935’s covetous hands by those on the island familiar with its myths and “old ways,” the Jotunn Star casts light and deadly fire.

With the Jotunn Star in hand, the wielder can attack enemies to inflict major damage. Striking them with up to five attacks in a row unleashes a deadlier hit, releasing an area of spectral energy on impact.

• Lantern Swing: A dexterous wielder can swing the weapon in front of them, using the blunt instrument to drop advancing undead.
• Flame Charge: The Jotunn Star drains the essence of creatures it eliminates, storing the energy within the weapon. This energy can be stored to provide warmth and to enable the Flame Tendril and Flame Strike attacks.
• Flame Tendril: When two or more fully charged lanterns are being utilized, a fiery cord connects them and slowly drains the life of anything that gets in its way.
• Flame Strike: When sufficiently charged, the stored energy within the Jotunn Star can be discharged as a concentrated, explosive fireball, damaging and setting foes alight.

Totenreich: Flammenfalle Trap

Roast foes with a blast of flames.

Drop some Essence to spin up this new trap that shoots out three jets of flame incinerating undead foes in range of the hot blasts. Once you’ve got the power back up and running, this scorching trap is just the ticket if you want to heat up your slaying capabilities.

Enhance the Flammenfalle’s abilities by activating a valve on the body of the trap, activating a heat zone that protects the crew from chilling effects, gives weapons the chance to trigger Napalm Burst, and passively builds the Jotunn Star’s Flame Charge while inside of the heat zone.

Totenreich: A Chill in the Air

Eidskallen is prone to bouts of extreme weather that will strike during Special Rounds. When this happens, the air chills and temperatures plummet, affecting every crew member’s view and slowing you down, unless you’re able to get inside or secure some warmth. Keep your wits about you when this occurs, as lurking Frost Zombies emerge from the mists to attack in droves. 

Totenreich: New Main Quest, Quest Rewards, and Challenges

The Main Quest for Totenreich becomes available when the map releases with Season 03 Reloaded on April 30 at 9:00 AM PT. Complete the Main Quest to earn the following:

• The “Ambition” Richtofen Operator Skin, Calling Card, and 10,000 XP.
• Complete Totenreich Mastery Challenge for another Calling Card and 5,000 XP.
• Obtain the necessary Intel (Audio Logs, Documents, and Artifacts) to earn a third Calling Card and another 10,000 XP.
• Players who complete the Main Quest before Directed Mode arrives for this map will also earn a unique Calling Card variant.

Totenreich: Cursed Mode, New Pack-a-Punch Camos

Take on the ultimate challenge with Cursed mode on Totenreich, offering no Main Quest guidance and providing a limited HUD and a starting Pistol. Hunt down new Cursed Relics and earn rewards including the following:

• The “Jade Legion” Pack-a-Punch Camo, Calling Card, and 15,000 XP.
• The “Crimson Legion” Pack-a-Punch Camo, Calling Card, and 20,000 XP.
• The “Heliotrope” Pack-a-Punch Camo, Calling Card, and 25,000 XP.

New Field Upgrade: Wild Fire

Imbue yourself with fire, increasing your speed and burning all enemies that get too close.

When the swarm is on you, or you need to push through the thick of it, Wild Fire may keep you safe. Activating this Field Upgrade radiates pulses of heat from your location that also engulfs enemies near the wielder, while you enjoy a small increase in speed. Wild Fire becomes even more powerful with its Augments, capable of incinerating anything that stands in your way.

Major Augments

• Fireball! While Wild Fire is active, fire balls will launch along with your attacks.
• Firestorm: On activation, deploy a fire tornado that pulls in and immolates enemies.
• Free Radical: While Wild Fire is active, the effects of the attack occasionally drop pools of fire on the ground.
• Flashover: Starting with the initial activation, every third Wild Fire pulse deals significantly more damage in a larger radius.

Minor Augments

• Oxidizer: Increase Wild Fire’s duration.
• Backdraft: On activation, nearby zombies are knocked down, and larger enemies are stunned.
• Molten Core: Enemies are dealt more damage the closer they get to you.
• Heat Surge: While Wild Fire is active, your movement speed is increased even further.

New Verdansk Point of Interest: Launch Pad

All systems are a go as the new Launch Pad POI arrives in Verdansk as the original big map returns at the start of Season 03! The Launch Pad is a massive complex with multiple structures found near the shoreline just south of Promenade. The Grazna-7 Launch Complex takes over the old Hills POI with a sprawling facility comprised primarily of the Control Tower, Hangar, Gantry, and the Depot and Vats.

Perch atop the large structures here to snipe distant enemies or get lost in the infrastructure, weaving between the area’s many obstacles to set up ambushes and flank attacks. In a facility this large, you can be sure there’s plenty of loot to be had with intense firefights all around.

The Gulag Arrives in Avalon

The Core Battle Royale experience is about to get a whole lot bigger as Operators begin dropping into Avalon for the first time in-season! In preparation for the map’s debut into Battle Royale, recent discoveries indicate The Guild has been hard at work developing not one but three Gulags where fallen Operators will get the chance to fight for their redeployment into the map.

Note that Wall Jumping is disabled in the Gulags. We can’t have any prisoners escaping now, can we? You have to earn your way out.

Similar to the three Gulag Verdansk variants, each Gulag is a compact, roughly octagon-shaped combat arena with a central area of high traffic, and interrogation stations around an upper floor where Operators waiting to fight can observe the action. Inside these arenas, expect automatic doors you can use as dynamic cover, reinforced glass windows allowing you to see — but not initially harm — your opponent, and other tactical novelties.

Gulag Variant #1: Server Room 04

Banks of servers surround a main server chamber, with sliding doors along all four inner walls.

Gulag Variant #2: Cryo Lab 05

Banks of cryo coffins and diagonal entrances mark the A and B areas of this cooled chamber.

Gulag Variant #3: Meeting Room 07

Advance into a central meeting room with open doorways and low central seating in a circular bench.

Core Modes Update: Battle Royale Big Map Rotation

The Core Battle Royale experience is planned to host a big map rotation between Verdansk and Avalon, giving squads the chance to drop into either map for double the tactical thrills. Expect the following access to both big map Battle Royale modes:

• Battle Royale on Verdansk at the launch of Season 03.
• Battle Royale on Avalon will arrive in-season for Season 03.

In addition, Season 03 introduces the following modes:

Launch Squad LTM

Verdansk

Get your bearings on the new Launch Pad POI with the Season 03 Launch Squad LTM. In this action-packed mode, squads drop into Verdansk’s new POI in a race to activate the Launch Sequence. The Launch Sequence activates once enough Launch Codes have been collected from eliminated enemies and other means.

The squad who collects enough Launch Codes to initiate the Launch Sequence must then survive as the Most Wanted until the match ends; eliminate additional enemies and pick up extra Launch Codes to reduce the time needed to survive until the end. Grab your favorite Loadout, stay in the game with respawns, and launch your squad to victory.

To keep the action flowing, there are no Buy Stations, Cash, or Redeploy Drones in the Launch Squad LTM. Progression comes purely from fighting and collecting Launch Codes. Get after it.

Hot Pursuit

Avalon, Black Ops Royale

Get ready for a high-speed chase in this LTM coming to Black Ops Royale, inspired by the original Blackout mode! Squads of four drop in and choose their journey as cops or robbers, and players respawn as long as one team member is alive. Whether you're hopping into a police vehicle to track down the robbers or jumping in a getaway car to find valuables, two constants hold true for everyone: Vehicular combat is key to success, and survival is all that matters.

Prop Hunt Royale

Rebirth Island, 48 players

The enemy could be anywhere… or anything. Luckily, you’ll have the whole squad at your back with 24v24 Prop Hunt on Rebirth Island.

In this round-based mode, teams alternate between Hunters and Props. Props get 30 seconds to hide while Hunters are locked in their spawn. Once unleashed, the Hunters must attempt to discover and eliminate the enemy team disguised as props. The Props win if at least one teammate survives until the end of the round, while the Hunters win if all Props are eliminated. The first team to win three rounds wins the match!

Private Match: New Features and Functionality

Whether you’re organizing a tournament or bringing in squads for a clandestine lobby, expect a host of new adjustments and improvements within the Private Match mode:

• Code Functionality: Private Match codes are now hidden by default when the Lobby is created and can be toggled to be visible or not. 
• Match Lobby Disbanding: Lobbies no longer disband after a match completes. If your squad has won, the squad leader receives a “return to lobby” option. If your squad has lost, you can spectate or leave the lobby or party. Players must wait for the rest of their party to finish the match before everyone can be taken back to the Lobby.
• Squad Name Changes: Members of a Squad can change the name of the squad they belong to. One squad member has this edit function.
• Gamertag Obscuring: The Host now supports the option to obscure player names/gamer tags in the Lobby. When set, a random pool of anonymized player names/gamer tags is used to substitute in for action names in the kill feed, scoreboard, et al. This is a full Lobby setting and cannot be changed by individual players.
• Scoreboard Updates: Expect additional features within the end-of-match scoreboard, including a per-squad and per-player breakdown, and sorting by different values (such as XP earned, eliminations, score, etc).

Wall Jump, Grappling Hook

Get ready to jump, dive, and grapple your way across Call of Duty: Warzone. Wall-jumping and the Grappling Hook will be available for use in Battle Royale and Resurgence matches at the start of the season, including Verdansk!

Flashpoint Public In-Match Event

Ignite the match with an explosive strike from Verdansk’s new Launch Pad in the all-new Flashpoint Public Event. When this event occurs, a random location is designated as the target, initiating a countdown until the chosen location is bombarded by a missile strike, eliminating all players in the area and leaving a damaging cloud in its wake that covers the immediate area until eventually dissipating.

Then, as Season 03 progresses, ensure you’re checking the environment in preparation for hunting down some particularly potent classified weaponry….

New Equipment: Spikes

Become even more powerful with the addition of Spikes, experimental military stimulants that enhance your Operator, coming to a Buy Station near you in Season 03. Choose tactically; should you fall, you’ll need to buy your Spikes back again.

• Armor Salvaging: Immediately gain an equipped Armor Plate after eliminating an enemy.
• Prone Firing: Greatly reduce weapon recoil while crouched or prone.
• Handicraft: Regenerate Equipment over time.

Lethals Arrive in New Game Modes

EMP Grenade: Disrupt your enemy communications and equipment by lobbing an EMP Grenade at your foes, available across Core Battle Royale and Resurgence modes at Season 03 Launch.

Cluster Grenade: Currently available as ground loot in Black Ops Royale — will be available across Core Battle Royale and Resurgence modes across Call of Duty: Warzone! Toss one and watch your enemies scatter to avoid the series of explosions that follow.

Season 03 Ranked Play Overview

Continuing into Season 03, Resurgence Ranked Play gives players the ultimate competitive experience by offering the same settings and weapon restrictions used by the Call of Duty® League™.

Charge energy weapon. Fires a high damage, slow moving projectile that passes through foes. Charge to improve projectile velocity.

Fire a slow-moving ball of electromagnetic energy that damages enemy Operators out to a great distance. The Siren performs best when fighting alongside teammates, throwing enemies off with its slow projectile velocity, tripping up foes who are used to facing faster firing armaments.

Melee, Event Reward

• Customize Options: Blueprints, Camos and Reticle Unlocks (END, MP, ZM, WZ), Accessories (1), Decals (1), Stickers (3)

Full-auto assault rifle. Low recoil for excellent accuracy with moderate damage and handling.

Pepper foes with accurate fire using this Assault Rifle that sports the lowest recoil in its class. In combination with a fast fire rate, the weapon pumps out rounds while staying on target, remaining controllable even through sustained fire. Its clean iron sights are just the icing on the cake, allowing you to focus on other Attachments without giving up a clear view of the enemy.

Further extend its range with a variety of Barrel Attachments and reduce its recoil even more with Recoil Springs. Use Gunsmith to tinker with different configurations as you level the weapon, seeking out the most effective arrangement for the battle at hand.

Prestige Attachment

Barrel > 19” MFS Nightfall Suppressed Barrel

Integrated suppressor barrel removes firing signature from mini-map and improves damage range and hipfire spread.

Full-auto submachine gun. Lightweight for excellent mobility with good handling. Supports multiple calibers.

This lightweight SMG keeps Operators fast on their feet, perfect for up close hit-and-run tactics. In terms of bullet spread, the VST offers the highest accuracy in its class along with impressive handling and mobility characteristics. Its strong recoil, however, causes the weapon to noticeably kick up when fired; either burst fire to control your shots when aiming down sights or get in their face and let loose off the hip.

Using the weapon’s Prestige Attachment adds further customization to the VST, converting it to use 5.56x30mm ammo for better range capabilities and a slower fire rate in addition to opening access to a variety of 5.56m Magazines.

Target in sight. Knock down foes fast with the new Strider 300 bolt-action Sniper Rifle, capable of downing unarmored enemies in one shot from the chest up. While its damage is lower compared to the other two bolt-action Sniper Rifles, it makes up for it with improved handling characteristics and a slightly faster fire rate. For players seeking to push the enemy while retaining high powered shots, this is your new go-to.

Prestige Attachment

Underbarrel > MFS Ballast Guard Stabilizer

Removes a massive amount of idle sway and drastically improves both aim walking steadiness and aiming movement speed, but harms handling, flinch resistance, and removes the ability to hold breath.

Secondary Weapon: 1911

• MAGS: 3
• MAG SIZE: 7

Semi-auto pistol. High damage at close range with decent recoil control and modest ammo capacity.

The iconic 1911 joins the Black Ops 7 arsenal, offering a reliable, high-powered Pistol that outshines every other option in its weapon class when considering effective damage range and damage inflicted per shot. Though the weapon has a hefty kick, it recenters quickly, allowing fast follow up shots that remain on target, its fire rate made even faster when using the weapon’s Prestige Attachment. 

Zombies players will want to Pack-a-Punch this one as soon as possible.

Prestige Attachment

Muzzle > MFS Overdrive Auto-Brake

Three new Barrel options also become available, including a Long Barrel, Hybrid Barrel, and Damage Barrel.

Carbon 57 Fabricator Mag

Carbon 57 SMG, Weekly Challenge Reward

Attachment > Magazine 

Equip this Fabricator Mag to automatically 3D-print new ammunition for the Carbon 57 when you’re not firing. You heard that right.

Ryden 45K Apex Sweeper Rig

Ryden 45K SMG, Weekly Challenge Reward
