Modern Warfare Zombies Finale: Fishing in Shadows

The finale to Modern Warfare Zombies could easily have been lost amongst the hype of Black Ops 6. Many had given up on the mode due to its different take on the Zombies formula and sparse updates, but ultimately, it was worth the wait. I’m not just referring to the…

Into the Intel I: Project Janus, The Aether, and MWZ

One of my favourite things about the Dark Aether story has been the return of mystery to Zombies’ storytelling. As exciting (and beautiful) as the Zombies Chronicles timeline was in Black Ops 3, it ended up sucking a lot of the air out of the room. We got too many…

Black Ops 6 Zombies Reveal: First Impressions

Treyarch cooked. Succumbed to the hype, I’ve decided to share my first thoughts tonight. I’ll have more to say about several features in the buildup to Black Ops 6’s launch, but I wanted to keep the good vibes going. The blog post that anchored the Black Ops 6 Zombies reveal…

There’s a Party on Terminus Island

“I have marched six weeks in hell and certifyIt is not fire, devils, dark, or anything,But boots—boots—boots—boots—moving up and down again,And there’s no discharge in the war.” ‘Boots’ – Rudyard Kipling (1903) We finally have a cinematic intro for a round-based Zombies map.

The last two channels on The Truth Dies are live, but before that, Mr Peeks had another secret for us last night. Inputting the following code on The Truth Dies revealed a video of what I assume is the Mystery Box moving animation. Is the announcer still The Forsaken? It’s…

It looks like Mr Peeks has more to say. Following the excitement of The Truth Dies on Thursday, a further update to the site on Friday gave us some things to ponder over the weekend. Channel 3 published a news report stating that the CIA has declassified top-secret files. Mr…

The Truth Dies Along With the Lies

We finally have a definitive answer. The cy83r14 “ARG” is not officially endorsed by Activision or Treyarch, despite Milo (MrRoflWaffles) explicitly referring to Treyarch as the sender of the briefcase in his possession. He has now added a disclaimer to the descriptions of his “ARG” videos, but unfortunately, it’s a…

The Black Ops 6 Zombies ARG May Be Back From the Dead

I may have spoken too quickly about the fate of the Cy83r14 ARG. After the revelation that Activision claimed no involvement in the teaser site and associated e-mail address, I lost interest in actively working on it. I wrote it off as a well-made hoax, but I kept an eye…

BO6 Zombies: Should the Perk Limit Return?

Show a casual COD player—or even someone who’s never played COD—the Juggernog machine, and they’ll likely say, “That’s that thing from Zombies, isn’t it?”. The perk system is one of several examples of Zombies taking standard gameplay components from Call of Duty and making them cool. Perk-a-Colas, as they are fondly…

The Black Ops 6 Zombies Reveal Hoax

Well, that was an eventful Thursday evening! For about an hour, it felt like the Black Ops 6 Zombies reveal teasers had kicked off, and all was right in the world. Unfortunately, that wasn’t quite the case. I’ve made it back up the rabbit hole in one piece to explain to…
