If you want to keep track of the precise timing, here’s aBlack Ops 6andWarzoneSeason 3 Reloaded countdown:
Given that it’s a Reloaded patch, the file size shouldn’t be too substantial. However, it’s always a good idea to save around 10GB, as this is usually the minimum space recommendation for mid-season patches.
What’s included in BO6 and Warzone Season 3 Reloaded?
TheCall of DutyBlog and latest trailers confirm various features for Season 3 Reloaded. We’ll cover them all, including maps, a new store bundle, and weapons.
New maps
The Season 3 Reloaded teaser gave us the inside scoop on the following new maps:
Haven takes you back to 1968 with a nostalgic nod to classicBlack Ops. This small, chaotic map drops you into the middle of a submarine bay. But if you’re looking for something a bit bigger, hop into Haven, a KGB safehouse packed with nonstop Operator showdowns.
Then there’s Blazetown—a trippy, psychedelic twist on Nuketown. It showed up a little late, but it’s here forCall of Duty‘s annual 4/20 festivities. Want to complete the vibe? TheJay and Silent Bob Operatorsare the perfect fit.
New Limited-Time modes
In addition to Blazetown, Season 3 Reloaded will keep with the leafy tradition with theJoint Operationslimited mode. Embark on a trippy extravaganza in five modes: Head Stash, Inhalation, Hotbox, Very High Target, and Munchies. Each mode is a different take on classics like Team Deathmatch, Kill Confirmed, and Hardpoint, but with a smoking twist.
Zombiesfans can look forward to a limited-time mode launching alongside Joint Operations. InZombies Snacks, you’ll unlock unique abilities that go beyond the usual mystical tools like Pack-a-Punch and Wonder Weapons. Although there’s not much else for this undead mode, we can at least prepare for the mid-season Directed Mode and theRay Gun Mark 2‘s debut in all maps.
Black Ops 6isn’t the only one shaking things up.Warzoneis rolling outHigh Trip ResurgenceandMassive Resurgence, two limited-time modes that will have you on the edge of your seat. In High Trip, you’re dropped into the chaos with a pre-determined loadout and powerful boosts, setting you up for intense action right from the start. Meanwhile, Massive Resurgence cranks up the heat with a colossal battle of 120 Operators. Only the last team standing will claim victory.
Overhaul of weapons and perks
It wouldn’t be a new patch without some fresh goodies. First up is theLadra submachine gun, a top-tier pick with a high fire rate, impressive range, and low recoil. As a fan of SMGs, I’ve got to get my hands on this one. New additions like this always make the collection better.
Next isVendetta, a new buff for the Recon perk. With this upgrade, you’ll briefly mark the location of the enemy who killed you after respawning. Take them out, and you’ll earn bonus points for pulling off a successful vendetta. We’re also getting aMini-Rocket Conversionfor theGoblin Mk2 7.62. Like any good launcher mod, this one’s built to hit hard, whether you’re taking out a single target or, if you’re lucky, a whole group in one blast.
Latest Operator skin
The rumors are true—Seth Rogenis officially getting an Operator skin asBlack Ops 6andWarzoneSeason 3 Reloaded gear up for his arrival. Fingers crossed, they include his legendary laugh somewhere in the bundle. Even better, his Operator skin drops just in time for the Blaze of Glory event, which feels like a spiritual successor to the fan-favorite High Trip event.
