Black Ops Cold War: Season 2 Release Date, New Content, and More

Treyarch introduced Season One to Black Ops Cold War a couple of weeks ago. It was the best thing to happen to the game since its launch, and so players want more. It turns out that they won’t have to wonder what is coming with the next big update, all thanks to YouTuber TheGamingRevolution.

The YouTuber recently revealed all the new content coming to Black Ops Cold War in Season Two. His efforts also included an approximate release date for the next season. Logically, Treyarch would release a new season as soon as the current one ends.

In Call of Duty games, seasons usually accompany the battle pass. With the current one ending in the next 44 days, that puts the approximate date of the Season Two release at around February 24. Putting the release date behind us, it is time to look at all the new content lined up for players.

New maps, Zombies DLC, and More Weapons in Black Ops Cold War Season Two

Starting with new maps, in earlier leaks, Treyarch included some map files in the game and did not release them during Season One. Therefore, there is a high possibility that these might come to the game with the next season. Of the maps that were a part of the leaks, two are multiplayer maps similar to other Call of Duty games.

The first map is similar to the Jungle map from Black Ops I. It is set in the Vietnam war in most probably in Laos. The map also features in a photograph in the Pines multiplayer map which strengthens its existence in the game. The second map is most probably a version of the Highrise Call of Duty map. Both of these are maps are going to feature 6v6 gameplay.

In addition to 6v6 maps, there is also going to be a new Fireteam map based on a desert theme called Dunes. This comes after a major Fireteam addition in the mid-season update. Treyarch has many things planned for the Fireteam mode, and it appears that the mode is going to be the highlight of Black Ops Cold War alongside Zombies and the Campaign.

Last, but not least, the first Zombies DLC also arrives with the next season. It will be featuring the Vietnam map which the first of the four DLC maps teased previously as part of a Zombies Easter Egg.

According to previous reports, Season 2 will also introduce the Dragunov sniper rifle to the game. Apart from this, there might be a new LMG, the Galil AR, the Skorpion SMG, and the CZ-75 pistol. On top of these, the Zombies mode might also get the Phallot Tactical rifle not available in the MP mode.

It appears the season update is going to be massive. Therefore, Black Ops Cold War fans have a lot to look forward to for the next 70 days. To sweeten the deal, it is possible that the season arrives earlier since something similar happened with the first season of Modern Warfare.
