Summary
- Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is adding The Tomb Zombies map on January 28, continuing the story from Citadelle des Morts.
- The Tomb is coming as part of Black Ops 6's Season 2 content update.
- The Tomb will mark the fourth Zombies map featured in Black Ops 6.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 developer Treyarch has officially announced that the next Zombies map, The Tomb, will be added to the popular FPS on January 28 with the start of Season 2. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 saw the return of the beloved round-based Zombies mode, which launched with the Terminus Island and Liberty Falls maps.
Treyarch wasted little time releasing a third Zombies map for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. Citadelle des Mortes was added to Black Ops 6 as part of Season 1 Reloaded, giving Zombies fans even more options when it comes to slaying massive hordes of the undead. Since Citadelle des Morts was just added to the game not too long ago, few expected Black Ops 6 Season 2 to launch with yet another new Zombies map, but that's exactly what's happening.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Players Want an Iconic Cosmetic Feature Added to Multiplayer
With cosmetic items now a massive part of Call of Duty, Black Ops 6 players call for the return of one iconic feature not seen since Black Ops 4.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is adding a new Zombies map called The Tomb on January 28 with the start of Season 2. The new map will continue the story where things left off in Citadelle des Morts, bringing back Weaver, Grey, Garver, and Maya as the playable characters. The Tomb map is set in catacombs built on top of ancient burial grounds. Treyarch has compared the new map to Liberty Falls in terms of structure, and promises to deliver Easter Eggs and a new Wonder Weapon inspired by the franchise's past, but fans will have to wait and see exactly what it is.
When is the New Black Ops 6 Zombies Map Coming Out?
- Black Ops 6 Tomb Zombies Map Release Date: Tuesday, January 28
More concrete information on The Tomb map is coming next week alongside the full reveal for Black Ops 6 Season 2. However, Treyarch did tease a little more of what fans can expect when the new map is added to the game on January 28. Treyarch hinted that The Tomb Zombies map will have callbacks to older Zombies maps, and that the studio is going to be "more evocative" with Pack-a-Punch camos. Not only that, but "one of the most iconic SMGs in Zombies history" is also making its return in Season 2.
Zombies fans will no doubt be excited to check out The Tomb and everything it has to offer once Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 2 launches on January 28. The only question is if Treyarch is going to be able to keep this pace of adding one new Zombies map per season, especially since the studio is rumored to be leading development on the 2025 Call of Duty game. That seems like a tall order, but fans can rest assured that there will still be new Zombies content in the months ahead regardless.

Forced to go rogue. Hunted from within. This is Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
Developed by Treyarch and Raven, Black Ops 6 is a spy action thriller set in the early 90s, a period of transition and upheaval in global politics, characterized by the end of the Cold War and the rise of the United States as a single superpower. With a mind-bending narrative, and unbound by the rules of engagement, this is signature Black Ops.
The Black Ops 6 Campaign provides dynamic moment-to-moment gameplay that includes a variety of play spaces with blockbuster set pieces and action-packed moments, high-stakes heists, and cloak-and-dagger spy activity.
In a best-in-class Multiplayer experience, players will test their skills across 16 new maps at launch, including 12 core 6v6 maps and 4 Strike maps that can be played 2v2 or 6v6.
Black Ops 6 also marks the epic return of Round-Based Zombies, the fan-favorite mode where players will take down hordes of the undead in two brand-new maps at launch. Post-launch, players can look forward to even more exciting maps and groundbreaking experiences dropping into both Multiplayer and Zombies.
