Although Black Ops 6 Zombies doesn’t get a new map in Season 4,sex movement youtube video the devs are bringing back the fan-favorite Grief mode that hasn’t been seen since Black Ops 2.
Zombies has always traditionally been you against wave after wave of the undead. However, Grief changes things up by making it competitive, where you’re going up against another team to see who can survive the longest.
The mode was last seen in 2012’s Black Ops 2, and it returns with the Season 4 update on May 29. We already have a ton of details about it, so we’re breaking down how it works.

Grief is a 4v4 competitive mode in Black Ops 6 Zombies, where your team has to outlast the other team to claim victory.
While you can’t damage the other team, you can hinder them by body-blocking them, slowing them down by hitting them with melee weapons and shooting them, or by capturing zones to give them debuffs.

Capture Zones will spawn regularly throughout a match, and by stepping inside them and securing enough kills, you’ll trigger ‘Grief’ on the other team (give them a debuff).
ActivisionIf neither team secures the capture zone, then Grief will be applied to both teams, so you can’t ignore them.
Here are all the different types of Grief:
- Weapon Nerf:?The affected players inflict considerably reduced damage to zombie enemies.
- Ammo Drain:?All ammo-based weapons, including those stowed, receive an ammo drain with bullets or shells being removed constantly while the Grief is active.
- Zombie Ambush:?An Elite zombie is summoned, and it solely focuses its killing power on the enemy team until either the Elite or the team are defeated, or the timer runs out.
- Weapon Carousel:?The rival players’ weapons are randomly swapped every few seconds.
- Frozen:?This Grief reduces the enemy players’ movement, along with frost and ice coating the characters.
All map arenas
Every Zombies map is available in Grief, but they’re chopped up into different arenas to keep teams together. Doors will be open, the power will be on, and if an important item or machine isn’t in the area, it’ll be added in a new location.
