The Exact Time ‘Warzone’ And ‘Black Ops 6’ Season 6 ‘The Haunting’ Begins And What To Expect

As I was watching the trailer for this year’s Call Of Duty Halloween event, The Haunting, a few thoughts occurred to me. First, seeing Predator and Jason and Chucky all make an appearance is just awesome. The trailer is really good and it really highlights these classic horror monsters in an exciting way.

Second, these are exactly the kind of crossovers we should be getting in Call Of Duty, and partly this is all in the timing. What I’d really like to see going forward is fewer zany crossovers and operator skins in general – no more Beavis and Butthead, no more ridiculous operators for most of the year – and then give us all the wild stuff during The Haunting. This is the end of the current game’s lifecycle. The new game (Black Ops 7 this year) is about to release. Give us all the wacky stuff now and keep the game’s “mil-sim” aesthetic intact up until then. I think most players would be happy with this kind of balance.

Here’s the trailer:

Lots of new content is headed to both Black Ops 6 and Warzone in Season 6 when it launches on October 9th at 9am PT / 12pm ET. Here’s the roadmap:

The new content headed to Call Of Duty during The Haunting includes new multiplayer maps and modes, night versions of Verdansk and Rebirth Island, and a new limited time mode (LTM) in Zombies. Here are the highlights:

Black Ops 6 Multiplayer

  • Three New Maps: Two new core 6v6 maps, Gravity and Rig, plus the smaller Mothball Strike map.
  • Boo-Town: Yet another Nuketown variant. The classic map will be decorated with Jack-o’-lanterns and skeletons and other Halloween decor. Also giant spiders.
