COD Black Ops 4: 10 New Features You Need To Know About

1. Zombies Is Split Into Three Timelines/Ideas

Understandably the one biggest part of COD that's taken on a life of its own even when the core games were being dragged through the muck, Zombies is now being split across three distinct timelines, offering three distinct modes.

The first is "IX" (or "Nine"), a gladiatorial arena showdown that puts an emphasis on melee kills over ranged combat. Second is Voyage of Despair, set aboard a sinking Titanic as the various hordes try to pin you down before everybody goes under anyway, and third is Blood of the Dead, a remaster of Black Ops 2's Mob of the Dead. This last mode will star Richtofen, Nikolai, Dempsey and Takeo from Black Ops 1, 2 and 3, coming together for the first time as a playable team, whereas the other two appear to have four fresh faces.

All match types feature 100 custom Mutations (sets of rules) to alter enemy A.I. aggression, speed and health, alongside "Calling" challenges like Zombie Rush and limited time gauntlets.
