A new weapon and more arrive in Black Ops Cold War.
Update 1.26 has arrived for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, and here’s the full list of changes and fixes added with this patch. This is the final major update for Black Ops Cold War before Call of Duty: Vanguard releases on November 5. The exclusivity period for the Zombies Onslaught mode is finally over, so now Xbox and PC players can enjoy what PlayStation players have had access to for the past year. This patch also adds a new melee weapon, the Hammer and Sickle, to the game alongside a new weapon unlock challenge for the LAPA SMG introduced at the start of Season 6. Here’s everything new with Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War update 1.26.
