Will the Black Ops 6 Zombies Story Continue in Call of Duty 2025?

Followers are at the moment invested within the Name of Responsibility: Black Ops 6 Zombies storyline, however will the occasions of the present sport proceed in COD 2025?

It’s about that point of yr when Name of Responsibility followers begin to hope for a glimpse of what’s subsequent in retailer for them.

For the primary time in years, it looks like Black Ops 6 is doing an amazing job of holding its gamers invested, with many followers trying ahead to imminent content material such because the new Shattered Veil Zombies map.

However the wheel of time stops for no sport, and a brand new Name of Responsibility title is inevitable. Early leaks report that Treyarch will probably be within the driver’s seat as soon as once more for COD 2025, so is it doable that this yr’s launch might proceed the Zombies storyline?

Name of Responsibility 2025 Zombies

It’s price noting that Activision is but to disclose any particulars about Name of Responsibility 2025, together with confirming the longstanding rumor that it’s being developed by Treyarch.

Leaks additionally recommend that COD 2025 is about to be a sequel to Black Ops 2, a sport that was truly set in 2025.

With that in thoughts, we are able to count on a 30+ yr hole from the occasions of Black Ops 6 Zombies, making it tough to arrange a direct sequel.

Nevertheless, different leaks have had loads of say concerning the plans for Zombies on this yr’s title:

The Authentic Crew Returns

Again in October 2024, Insider Gaming claimed that the unique Zombies Crew might be returning in COD 2025. The location claimed that this information got here from a number of sources who had been invited to early playtests of the upcoming title.

Longtime Zombies followers will keep in mind that we final noticed Tank Dempsey, Nikolai Belinski, Takeo Masaki, and Edward Richtofen all collectively in Black Ops 3’s Revelations map. There, the beloved characters entered an infinite cycle starting in Origins and ending within the aforementioned Revelations.

Since 2016, solely Richtofen has made a comeback, resurfacing on the finish of Chilly Battle Zombies and establishing the occasions of the Black Ops 6 Zombies storyline.

May the opposite unique Zombies Crew members by some means return and nonetheless be part of the Black Ops 6 story? Properly, it’s not so simple as that.

The rationale why ‘Eddie’ Richtofen was capable of return was as a result of he was reborn in a toddler’s physique on the finish of Origins. Then, on the conclusion of Black Ops 4 Zombies, Eddie and Samantha Maxis are the one two beings to go into the brand new universe, whereas the remainder of the multiverse is destroyed.

It’s complicated however, in principle, the one method we’d be capable of play as the unique Crew can be someplace of their repeating cycle – except Treyarch needs to jot down the characters into the storyline one other method.

Map Settings

One other attention-grabbing leak from Insider Gaming, this time from March 2025, reported that there will probably be six round-based maps coming to Call of Duty 2025.

Amongst these are quite a few adventurous settings, resembling a map set in post-WW2 New York following a Nazi nuclear bomb assault, a Japanese temple set on the base of an lively volcano, or an area station contained in the Darkish Aether.

If this leak proves right, maybe Treyarch is trying to transfer away from the extra ‘grounded’ story seen in Black Ops 6 Zombies, which (as of Season 3) options two maps set in a West Virginian city.

The leak additionally experiences that Grief and Outbreak modes are set to return on this yr’s launch, however we bear in mind hearing something similar about last year’s title.

It’s price mentioning that the Black Ops 6 storyline technically already continued with the occasions of Fashionable Warfare 3 Zombies (AKA MWZ). There, we noticed the biological daughter of Samantha Maxis looking into the events of Liberty Falls.

Due to this fact, we expect it’s seemingly that Treyarch will in the future proceed the present storyline, even when it strikes away from it on this yr’s launch. In any case, we lastly simply bought more Chaos storyline content after 7 years of waiting!
