Released in November 2020, ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’ is a shooter game in FPP mode published by Activision and developed by video game company Treyarch and Raven Software. The storyline revolves around Russell Adler, a CIA operative, going on a mission to stop an extremist group from USSR. Inspired by actual events, the story is set in 1981 and features Vietnam, East Berlin, Turkey, and the KGB headquarters in the Soviet. Depending on the player’s choices, who will play as a custom character, the ending of the game can vary.
What we can expect in this new terrain
A new map for the game is soon to be released, and although there is no information on when this will happen, a trailer has been dropped on the official YouTube handle of Treyarch teasing the same. This new map, titled Firebase Z, will be set in Vietnam, and here the players will have to fight their way through a swarm of zombies to get to the portal that is the centre of attention on this map. After crossing through, the players will be greeted with more zombies that will be harder to fight off. Naturally, with all this new combat in-store, the players will need more advanced weapons. These will include, as we see in the trailer, what seems to look like an AK-47 modified along with an attached grenade launcher that fires energy projectiles with a massive explosion radius.

More about the COD franchise
The game has two more modes- multi-player and zombie. The multi-player mode includes classic 6v6 or 12v12 combat and can even have up to forty players play simultaneously. On the other hand, the Zombie mode can be seen expanding the original ‘Aether’ storyline and forces players to either beat the zombies, escape them, or die. Apart from uncountable Call of Duty games, Treyarch has also worked on some excellent games like ‘Spider-Man 2’ (2004) and ‘007: Quant of Solace’ (2008). ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’ is available on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.
