Currently, the map is available across all platforms, and with it, new enemies and weapons for players to experience. The reasoning behind the delay isn’t known at the moment, but at least the delay will give you time to get used to the map before they’re unlocked. Of course, even with Firebase Z out now, there’s a few Easter Eggs for the map that are still to be revealed.Īccording to Treyarch, the Firebase Z Easter Egg quests won’t be activated until February 5. Below is a quote from the blog post telling players what to expect from the story in the upcoming Zombies map.Treyarch had teased the release of the new Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Zombies map over the past weekend, and today that map is now live. This will be the first time that a Zombies storyline has continued across different studios with Sledgehammer and Infinity Ward trying their hands at the mode in WW2 and Infinite Warfare, respectively.

With Treyarch working on the Zombies mode for the upcoming Call of Duty: Vanguard, it has already been confirmed that game's Zombies story will be a prequel to what we have seen in Cold War. Samantha Maxis, a pivotal character from the original story, is caught in the middle as she slowly becomes a weapon, with her allegiances being tested at every turn. The forces within this unknown world have plans of their own, however. The story so far in Cold War has seen two factions, Requiem and Omega, attempting to use this alternate dimension known as the Dark Aether in a new arms race.

Cold War's "Dark Aether" storyline is a soft reboot of the original "Aether" story that most fans of Call of Duty are familiar with that ran from World at War all the way to Black Ops 4.
