Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 receives two highly-anticipated additions this week: the classic "Infected" mode and the iconic Nuketown map. Following its launch last week, Treyarch announced via Twitter (X) that "Infected" will be available tomorrow, with Nuketown launching on November 1st.

Infected and Nuketown Enhance Black Ops 6 Post-Launch Content

The addition of these fan favorites builds on Activision's promise of regular post-launch content updates. Black Ops 6 initially launched with 11 standard multiplayer modes, including variations with disabled Scorestreaks and a Hardcore mode. Nuketown, originally featured in Call of Duty: Black Ops (2010), is a beloved map set in a 1950s US nuclear test site.

Black Ops 6 Update Addresses Multiple Issues

A recent update addressed several issues reported by players. Improvements include increased XP and weapon XP rates in various modes (Team Deathmatch, Control, Search & Destroy, and Gunfight). Activision confirmed ongoing monitoring of XP rates across all game modes. The update also resolved several bugs, including:

• Global: Resolved loadout highlighting, Operator animation issues (Bailey), and the "Mute Licensed Music" setting functionality.
• Maps: Addressed exploits allowing players to leave the intended playspace on Babylon, Lowtown, and Red Card maps. Red Card also received stability improvements. General in-game interaction stability was also enhanced.
• Multiplayer: Fixed matchmaking issues preventing quick player replacements, prevented private match forfeits with zero players on a team, and addressed a continuous missile sound effect from the Dreadnought Scorestreak.

Further updates are planned to address remaining issues, such as player death upon loadout selection in Search & Destroy. Despite these initial post-launch challenges, Black Ops 6 is considered by many to be a top-tier Call of Duty title, particularly praising its enjoyable campaign.
