Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has been enjoying Season 1 content for several weeks, but now information regarding the game's mid-season update has been released. New gameplay improvements, bug patches, and other fixes appeared on January 7th, but the developers have also shared a preview of the mid-season Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War patch. As content is repaired, the game is starting to come into focus and accepted by the overall Call of Duty community.
The mid-season update tends to be one of the biggest events each season. As new content appears in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War every week, the mid-season update offers a chance for massive changes. New maps, game modes, and weapons tend to appear during mid-season updates and now fans have a small taste of the exciting content yet to come.
The Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Season 1 content is getting a massive upgrade as new content is being added for Multiplayer and Zombies. A new Fireteam map has been unveiled with the title "Sanatorium" where players will have to infiltrate a mental hospital and secure it from an unknown threat. A new 6v6 Multiplayer Game mode is being added titled "Dropkick" in which players will fight for control of nuclear codes across several multiplayer maps. While it is unknown what bug fixes are to be added, mid-season patches tend to bring in some balance fixes for contact added throughout the overall season experience.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Zombie fans will get a new and difficult challenge as a brand new "Cranked" mode has been added. Every zombie killed resets a timer, and players will have to keep running down the damned or risk dying to an unknown force. This game mode is sure to keep the adrenaline pumping as the zombie rush from every direction.
Raid will join the map list along with a new Dark Aether intel for Zombies players on the PlayStation systems. While this is a minor Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War benefit, it does echo the continued support of PlayStation over other platforms that was controversial during the launch of this title.
This is only a preview of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War's Season 1 mid-season. Players can expect the update to arrive on January 14th with some more content still in the works currently being kept closely guarded by the development team.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
