Fans of the series know that Call of Duty's Zombies mode has grown far beyond the first Zombies mode that debuted in Call of Duty: World At War. What began as a wave-based zombie survival game mode grew into a separate entity with a complete story and dozens of maps. The longest-running Zombies storyline started years ago and continued through 2018's Black Ops 4. You can check out our official Black Ops 4 Zombies wiki guide for information on how that storyline came to a close so as not to spoil it here. Spoilers aside, what occurs in Black Ops 4's Zombies was considered a definitive end, and considering Treyarch's use of the word "new" in "a new #Zombies story begins," it's safe to say that Black Ops Cold War will see the beginning of a new zombie storyline for the Call of Duty series. We'll be getting the first look at that this week when the official reveal goes live.
