The hype for Black Ops 6 (BO6) Zombies is reaching fever pitch, and recent leaks and rumors are fueling the excitement. Get ready for a potential return to Liberty Falls in DLC 3, code-named "Mansion," along with classic Wonder Weapons, new enemy types, and the possible comeback of beloved perks. Let's dive into the details of what the community can expect in the coming weeks and months.
DLC 3: Mansion – A Return to Liberty Falls?
Confirmed at the end of the Tombs Easter egg, DLC 3, rumored to be called "Mansion," will reportedly take players back to the familiar setting of Liberty Falls. Speculation suggests a Season 3 release, spanning from March to early May. With Verdansk potentially launching at the start of Season 3, some believe Mansion might be held back for Season 3 Reloaded. However, considering the potential size and scope of the map, an earlier release isn't out of the question. Insider "The Ghost of Hope" claims Mansion's size is comparable to Liberty Falls and the Tomb.
The return to Liberty Falls also sparks speculation about potential enemy encounters. Will we see the Abomination or Mangler making a comeback? Or will the Disciple, featured in the Black Ops 6 campaign, take center stage as the new special enemy? Adding another layer of intrigue, Ricktofen's lab is rumored to be located beneath the Mansion, where Sam is being held. This could mean the appearance of a Meca-Klaus, a new version of Klaus, potentially as either an ally or a formidable foe.
Wonder Weapons and Mystery Boxes:
The iconic Wonder Waffe DG-2 is heavily rumored to make an appearance in Mansion, mirroring its presence in the intro cutscene for Liberty Falls. Players can anticipate Wonder Weapon skins and the ability to acquire the DG-2 through side quests and the Mystery Box. Another long-awaited weapon, the Ray Gun Mark I, could also be added to the Mystery Box rotation, possibly exclusive to Mansion, adding even more allure to the map. However, many fans are hoping the Mark I would be available on all maps.
Permanent Modes and Licensed Crossovers:
With only two round-based maps reportedly planned, there might be gaps in content releases. To fill these voids, Treyarch could introduce permanent modes like Griefer or Turn, both of which have been rumored. The potential for licensed crossovers also opens doors for limited-time modes (LTMs) like Kabanga Cranked, hopefully with engaging Easter eggs and unique rewards.
Gobblegums and Field Upgrades:
Get ready for the return of Shopping Free! Confirmed by Kevin Drew himself, this fan-favorite Gobblegum will be making its way back into Black Ops 6 at some point. Data miners have also uncovered new Gobblegums, including:
Power Vacuum (Epic): Spawns an abundance of power-ups.
Ammo Chaos (Legendary): Unknown effect.
Absolutely Over There (Legendary): Teleports the player to a significant location.
Support Group (Ultra): Likely a rare gum obtainable through events or battle passes.
Mary Paris: Rarity not yet known.
The Frost Blast field upgrade from Black Ops Cold War is also reportedly making a return, complete with augments like Frostbite, Extension, Cast, Flash Freeze, and Slick.
Conclusion:
The future of Black Ops 6 Zombies looks incredibly promising. With a potential return to Liberty Falls, classic Wonder Weapons, and exciting new gameplay elements on the horizon, fans have plenty to look forward to. As players eagerly await these updates, some may seek alternative ways to enhance their experience, perhaps even looking into the cheapest BO6 bot lobbies to practice strategies and level up quickly.
