Black Ops 6 Update Patch Notes Revealed

Key Takeaways

• The new update for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 adds 10v10 playlist and nerfs Recon combat specialty.
• Zombies mode in Black Ops 6 receives bug fixes and an exploit fix in the latest update.
• Season 1 is starting on November 14.

Treyarch has released a new update for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 that fans of the game can download right now. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has received multiple updates since launch, with the latest one adding fresh playlists to the popular FPS.

Prior to the update’s release, Treyarch revealed that it would be shaking up the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 playlists with the game’s next update. Treyarch promised fans that it would be adding a 10v10 playlist to Black Ops 6 along with Stakeout 24/7, while keeping the fan-favorite Nuketown 24/7 playlist intact. Those fresh playlists are now live in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 alongside a variety of other changes.

Upon downloading the latest Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 update, players will be able to check out the new playlists, with 10v10 Moshpit including Red Card, Rewind, Vault, Vorkuta, Lowtown, Derelict, Skyline, Scud, and Nuketown. Available modes in the 10v10 Moshpit are Team Deathmatch, Kill Confirmed, Domination, and Hardpoint. The update has also fixed an issue on Lowtown where players were able to go out of bounds. Problems with XP earn rates, changes, and general stability have also been addressed by the update.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 players will also be happy to learn that the Recon Combat Specialty has been nerfed even further. The previous Black Ops 6 update nerfed Recon in response to complaints that it was way too overpowered, and now the latest update has nerfed it even more. After the latest update, the duration that enemies are highlighted after respawning has been reduced from 1.5 seconds to 1 second.

Some changes have been made to Black Ops 6‘s Zombies mode in the latest update as well. The Zombies changes mainly come in the form of bug fixes, though it has fixed a lingering exploit. Assuming the update works as intended, Black Ops 6 Zombies players will no longer be able to launch Tactical Rafts into the air when playing on Terminus.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 players can enjoy this update while they wait for the far more substantial one that’s right around the corner. Black Ops 6 Season 1 starts on November 14, bringing with it a ton of new content, including multiple new multipalyer maps and Warzone integration.
