Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has launched its September 16 update, so here’s the full list of changes and fixes with today’s patch. It seems that today’s patch seems to primarily be focused on switching up the playlists with some fresh stuff (including a particularly gnarly 12v12 version of Nuketown), but there are a few fixes hidden within. These appear to be primarily within the Zombies mode which, given I play that mainly is a much welcome sight. There’s plenty more to discuss today though so, without further adieu, here’s everything new with Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War in its September 16 update!

While this is all that’s been changed, within the patch notes themselves was an image teasing what’s next for Zombies in Cold War. With a strange-looking machine, it’s clear that whatever Omega is planning is bound to be big. A previous teaser image also showcased that this map takes place within the Operation Greenlight facility from the campaign mission. As such, we’ll likely have a replica of the Russian training facility as a map, something I can’t say I’m complaining about. As for the update though, some nice changes and playlist updates round off a fairly nice set of changes.
