They’re back and they’re stronger than ever! Call of Duty Vanguard owners might be in for a treat; rumors suggest the title launches with a Zombie invasion. Since the game launches only a few days past Halloween, it was only natural to start by welcoming the walking-dead back.
Although there has been no announcement since the recent confirmation of the dates and requirements for the beta tests, according to leakers, the Zombies will not be similar to their classic versions. The new Zombie mode will be an amalgamation of Call of Duty’s most popular modes: Outbreak, Onslaught, and Roundbased.
Imagine Outbreak, Onslaught, and Roundbased had a baby.. This is what I've heard the #Vanguard Zombies launch content will be.

Well-renowned InforCoDES on Twitter leaked the plausible plans for the new mode. Keeping in line with the Zombie theme, the announcement will reportedly be made a week before Halloween, October 31, 2021. The mode will be available at the time of launch and will have enhanced versions of the zombies.
