After a three-day easter egg hunt, a Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Zombies teaser video has been found. The five second clip is violent and terrifying, showcasing a bold new direction for the game mode while also confirming the release date of the full Black Ops Cold War Zombies trailer.
The teaser video can be viewed on the PawnTakesPawn website, which has been consistently updated with other Black Ops Cold War teasers. Today’s update was a big one, however, as the most popular Call of Duty YouTubers completed the complex puzzle designed by the Treyarch team and received their reward. While an interesting audio file was posted that teases the mode’s story, the most interesting parts of the website update were visual.
Another Zombies teaser photo was posted, this time showing off a prominent military figure meeting with the geared up soldiers and scientists that have been conducting tests on zombies. The teaser video itself features a straightforward zombie attack, but it does so in a far more gory and horrifying way than the previous Treyarch versions of the mode With the video adopting a gritty found footage style to go with its dark tone, the teasers for the mode are continuing to give off serious Call of Duty: WW2 Zombies vibes.
One interesting aspect of the teaser video is the weapon fired by the soldier, as the unknown character seems to be holding a fan favorite SMG as he is taken down violently by a zombie. Based on the look and sound of the weapon, it appears to be the PPSh-41. The popular, fast firing World War 2 era weapon could be joining the leaked Ray Rifle in Black Ops Cold War Zombies, making for a fan-pleasing weapon combo that will likely be seen often in the co-op survival mode.
Call of Duty Zombies YouTubers like GregFPS posted the brief teaser clip to their channels, however most of the uploaded versions of the video are missing an important piece of information seen only on the PawnTakesPawn version: the trailer release date. The official Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Zombies trailer will be released on September 30th at 10 AM PT. No puzzles or secret links will be needed to access this official trailer, as the Zombies showcase will mimic the original Black Ops Cold WarZombies teaser and will be posted directly to the Call of Duty YouTube account on Wednesday.
With the teaser showing no sign of Primis, the original Zombies characters that many fans grew up with, Treyarch seems to be keeping their promise of the Aether story being over and Black Ops Cold War Zombies being something fresh. If a recent rumor proves to be true, however, old school Zombies fans may still be getting to play as Nikolai and the old crew within Warzone.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is set to release on November 13th for PC, PS4, Xbox One, PS5, and Xbox Series X.
