Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies Trailer Teases Returning Characters

Activision and Treyarch released a new cinematic trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies focusing on its second launch map Liberty Falls. Fans of the undead mode may recognize some familiar faces and names.

Who are the characters teased in the Liberty Falls Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies cinematic?

Liberty Falls is the second launch map in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies mode. As described on a Call of Duty blog post, the map is a “once-quaint, now-overrun West Virginian town” and is “seemingly the epicenter of a Dark Aether outbreak.”

The new cinematic trailer begins with shots panning across the vast forest of Liberty Falls as the We’ll Meet Again by Vera Lynn plays, a callback to Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s Zombie mode. We then see series regular Edward Richtofen enjoying a nice picnic with his wife and child. As he goes to retried his wife’s sweater, the forest is set ablaze with his wife and child hauntingly smiling at him. A quick glance of his loved ones burnt to a crisp is shown right before he wakes up from the supposed nightmare.

However, he has woken into a second nightmare as dimension breaches occur across the facility. Richtofen is shown using the Wunderwaffe annihilate the zombie threat. He eventually escapes the undead by entering an elevator.

However, a purple gaseous entity takes a hold of Richtofen and then he suddenly disappears with his last words being, “I swear to you Sam, you’ll never be free.” The trailer ends with a big talking metal ball, from which the purple gas came from, that says, “But Edward, I already am.” This seems to imply the return of Sam Maxis in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies mode.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 launches October 25, 2024, for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC. The first look of the Liberty Falls map will be during the Call of Duty: Next event next week, on August 28, 2024.
