Citadelle des Morts Preview: Chaos in Avalon
The Citadelle des Morts intro cinematic is out, and while I was already excited for more Zombies after Black Ops 6’s launch, my hype is now at fever pitch for the new map update. It’s been a while since I’ve written on Shutter Paw–I’ve been dipping my toes in some…
Black Ops 6 Zombies: First Impressions and Feedback
Black Ops 6 is phenomenal. I’ve spent countless hours playing around with all three pillars since launch and have barely scratched the surface. Given the live service element, I’m saving a full critique until the first additional Zombies map is released, but I still wanted to get some initial thoughts…
Black Ops 6 Zombies: A Blog About a Blog
If it wasn’t clear, it should be now: Treyarch is listening to the community more than ever. Despite a short turnaround from reveal to launch, Treyarch has acknowledged and addressed much of the feedback for Black Ops 6’s release. Yesterday’s blog post delivered valuable information about Zombies, including a deep…
Into the Intel II: The Chaos Story, Mr Peeks, and the Dark Aether Villains

Look At This Esthtuk Zortuk
With the (excellent) Black Ops 6 beta live, bits and pieces of leaked information are making the rounds on Twitter. One thing that has caught the eye of many Zombies players is a potential “Classic Mode.” All we have is the name; we must make zero assumptions here. For all…
The Panic of Liberty Falls
The last three weeks were lovely while they lasted. The air of positivity around Black Ops 6 Zombies has returned to the usual nonsense. Unfortunately, I’m not surprised. Let me be clear: you are allowed not to like the game. If you have issues with it, you are free to…
Richtofen Returns; Liberty Falls
The word “cinema” gets thrown around a lot these days. It’s been repurposed as an adjective to signify the quality of something, commonly a scene in a movie or video game. I’m guilty of using “cinema” to describe anything I deem fit. Like most modern linguistic trends, it started as…
