A Zombies free trial week starts today too
If you’ve been hankering for some meaty new additions toCall Of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, Treyarch come bearing gifts, many gifts. Season One’s big update drops today and it features new maps for Zombies and multiplayer, new modes for both, and an unlockable samurai sword for good measure. A free trial for Zombies also kicks off today and will run through January to 21st, which is a decent opportunity to give the undead a beatdown for precisely zero pounds.
According toTreyarch community manager Josh Torres, this Blops Cow update is due to go live at 6pm this evening (that’s 10am PT and 1pm ET for folks in the US).

I was excited for the Zombies map until I realised it was exclusive to PlayStation. I’m absolutely livid.
The new multiplayer map Sanatorium is touted as a “massive new arena” where we’ll do battle in a “low-wooded hills area”. I’ve warmed to Blops Cow’s large maps featuring boats and bikes, so I welcome a new addition to the beefy club. Here’s what it looks like:
The new multiplayer mode Dropkick sounds different, and I like that. ACall Of Duty blog postearlier this week described it as a “frantic game of hot potato”, where two squads must fight to control a suitcase containing nuclear codes. The first team to score 200 points wins and will set off a big ol' explosion. They’ve not specified how you rack up points, but presumably, it’s the team that clings onto the suitcase for the longest amount of time that will emerge victorious.
Let’s not forget thatCall of Duty Blops Cow’s zombies modes will be free to playfrom today through to January 21st. You’ll get to test drive the traditional zombies experience, as well as the new Cranked mode.
