The highly anticipated Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 3 update has arrived, bringing major changes to Multiplayer, Zombies, and Warzone as the iconic Verdansk battlefield makes its dramatic comeback.
Activision has released comprehensive patch notes detailing all the new content coming to PC, PlayStation, and Xbox platforms. This massive update delivers extensive adjustments across all game modes, giving players complete visibility into how the gameplay will evolve when Season 3 launches on April 2 at 9 AM PT.
Key highlights from the Black Ops 6 Season 3 update include new crossplay customization options that let console players fine-tune matchmaking preferences in both ranked and casual playlists. While disabling crossplay may increase queue times, these controls give players more flexibility to curate their gaming experience across platforms.
Shotgun users will find their weapon class significantly enhanced this season, with buffs to damage, range, and fire rates across nearly all models. Additional content includes the fan-favorite Firing Range map remake, the return of the Kilo 141 assault rifle, and the deadly Death Machine scorestreak.
Zombies mode receives substantial updates, headlined by the new Shattered Veil map. The legendary Raygun Mark II makes its return with three devastating variants, complemented by the revival of the Double Tap Perk-A-Cola. Both Multiplayer and Zombies modes benefit from numerous bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements to ensure smooth gameplay at launch.

The Warzone update brings special focus on nostalgia, with the April 3 return of Verdansk - one of the most significant maps in Call of Duty history. The update restores many classic features from the 2020 experience while maintaining modern innovations like Omnimovement. Buy Stations now feature the original vertical menu design for faster in-combat purchases, along with new quality-of-life additions like a Redeploy All option. Veterans will notice Precision Airstrikes become more dangerous without their mini-map indicators.
"We've removed the Precision Airstrike's path indicator to restore its original 2020 function as a surprise attack," the patch notes explain. "We'll monitor player feedback and data as we evaluate this change."
