As per usual, there are new weapons, maps, and modes added with this update, but there are also a ton of surprises waiting for players this season.

The Hunt for Adler limited-time event will be the biggest thing for players to do during launch week, providing several challenges and optional objectives to work towards for free rewards. It’s similar to the Outbreak events and Haunting of Verdansk, so it’ll only be available for a while and it’ll have its own dedicated tab in the menu. This limited-time mode also has Warzone challenges to work on as well, so it may not be fully available until the situation in Verdansk is resolved.
In the meantime, players can check out the many new maps and weapons coming to Black Ops Cold War multiplayer. The PPSh-41 is a fan-favorite SMG that has a ridiculously fast fire rate, and the Swiss K31 should prove to be a powerful long-range option for Black Ops Cold War and Warzone players alike. The other new weapons will be released during the season, so keep an eye out for them. You can test them out on Yamantau and Diesel, the two new maps available at the season’s start. New Prestige levels are also available this season like always, and Season 3 raises the cap to Prestige 15. It’s time to get grinding if you want those cool new icons.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
