What To Expect For Season 2 Reloaded?

Multiplayer Maps

For the launch of Season 2 Reloaded, players can expect additional maps and game modes for Black Ops 6 Multiplayer. In terms of playable maps, Bullet enters the fray, serving as a small Strike map for 2v2 and 6v6 gameplay. The highly anticipated Grind remastered map also marks its debut for Season 2 Reloaded, having first appeared in Black Ops 2. Grind will be available in Core Playlists as a 6v6 medium-sized map.

Warzone Updates

Season 2 Reloaded primarily focuses on quality-of-life updates for Warzone. However, players looking to enhance their loadouts can look forward to the introduction of the Low Profile Perk. Low Profile can be equipped in the Perk 1 slot, allowing players to move much faster while crouched and prone. It also provides a stealth benefit, as eliminations made while this perk is active will not trigger death markers for enemy squadmates.

Hunter’s Instinct provides the benefit of marking the next nearest enemy after each elimination, making it an excellent option for aggressive players.

The Flyswatter Wildcard will also make its debut, allowing players to equip a Launcher in their dedicated Melee slot. Last but not least is the arrival of the Belt-Fed attachment, exclusive to Light Machine Guns, joining the roster of other Season 2 attachments as an Event Reward.
