New Content and Features
Two New Multiplayer Maps
Players will have fresh battlegrounds to explore with the addition of two new multiplayer maps, offering new tactical opportunities and gameplay dynamics.
- Grind Ooze (6v6): The fan-favorite map first released in Call of Duty: Black Ops II returns for Black Ops 6 in the mid-season! Show off your best combat moves in the outdoor Half Pipe and Cradle or take your chances inside as Operators trade shots around the Store and across the indoor skate ramps, with TMNT decals, posters, and artwork spread across the scenery.
- Bullet (6v6/2v2): Sev and Rogue Team deploy to a high-speed bullet train to neutralize a key enemy target. Keep your eyes sharp when moving up and sweeping the carriages; the automatic sliding doors may reveal an incoming enemy at a moment’s notice. Climb up to the roof of the train to feel the whipping wind and marvel at the landscape flying by. Be ready to defend your spot up top and then drop back down behind the enemy line.

Weapon Balancing for Multiplayer and Zombies
GPR 91 Assault Rifle Buff
The GPR 91 receives a buff to improve its range and handling:
- Maximum damage range increased from 17.8m → 22.2m
- CHF Barrel and Rapid Fire attachments adjusted to improve recoil control
Feng 82 LMG Buffs

Melee Combat Enhancements
Given the large number of melee weapons introduced in this update, Treyarch has adjusted melee lunge distances for select weapons. These tweaks focus on two-hit kill melee weapons to better balance attack speed, lunge distance, and overall effectiveness. The developers noted that they aim to keep movement speed consistent while adjusting attack mechanics to make melee weapons more viable.
