Zombies, the fan-favorite Call of Duty game mode that Treyarch originally introduced in 2008’s Call of Duty: World at War to allow players to face off against hordes of the undead as part of a separate, albeit canon, story, will be back in a big way for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, according to a new cinematic trailer that Activision released for Black Ops 6 Zombies today, one that can confirm the return of several members of the Requiem team, now serving under the Terminus banner. A full reveal for Black Ops 6 Zombies, which will include two brand-new maps at launch, is scheduled for August 8 at 8 a.m. PT.
Black Ops 6 Zombies Terminus team includes:
- Grigori Weaver

Treyarch on its latest version of Zombies:
Taking place over half a decade later, Black Ops 6 Zombies continues the Dark Aether storyline, exploring the fortunes of key characters while also delving further into Richtofen’s motivations and goals.
During the intervening years, former Requiem staff—Grigori Weaver, Mackenzie “Mac” Carver, Elizabeth Grey, Oskar Strauss, and Stoney Maddox (better known by his callsign, Raptor One)—have been incarcerated at an outpost known as Terminus, a mysterious garrison located in the Philippine Sea.
After being imprisoned for over five years, these characters have undergone significant mental and physical changes.
