The 2024 installment of Call of Duty has finally arrived, and players worldwide can now dive into the intense action of Black Ops 6. The game is available in two editions: the Standard Edition and the Vault Edition. While the Vault Edition is considerably more expensive, it also includes additional content.
If you're having trouble deciding which edition to choose, you’re in the right place. This guide covers everything you need to know about the Vault Edition — from what it offers to whether it’s worth the investment.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Releases New Update
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 receives minor updates that address several in-game glitches to make the experience smoother on launch day.
What’s Included in the Vault Edition of Call of Duty Black Ops 6
The Standard Edition of Black Ops 6 provides only the base game, but the same can’t be said for the more premium Vault Edition. Priced $30 higher than the Standard Edition, the Vault Edition comes in at $100 — a hefty amount for a game that will likely be followed by a new Call of Duty installment next year.
If you're curious about the additional items included in the Vault Edition, read on for the full breakdown.
Hunters vs. Hunted Operator Pack
The Hunters vs. Hunted Operator Pack offers four unique operator skins, which can be used in Black Ops 6, Warzone, and Warzone Mobile:
- Adler – Umbra Skin (Rogue Black Ops)
- Park – Oblivion Skin (Rogue Black Ops)
- Brutus – Warden of Alcatraz Skin (Zombies)
- Klaus – Reborn Skin (Zombies)
Black Ops 6 Zombies: All Wonder Weapons
Black Ops 6 Zombies brings Wonder Weapons back. Here's a rundown on how each of them works and how players can get them.
Mastercraft Weapon Collection
The Mastercraft Weapon Collection adds a touch of creativity for players who enjoy a bit of flair. It includes animated versions of five different weapons:

- LR 7.62 (Sniper Rifle) - Brainstorm
- Marine SP (Shotgun) - Unrepentant

Like the Operator Pack, these weapon skins are usable in Black Ops 6, Warzone, and Warzone Mobile.

Is the Vault Edition Worth It?
Whether the Vault Edition is worth it depends on what you want from your Call of Duty experience.
- If you bought the game mainly for the campaign and plan to play Zombies and Multiplayer casually, the Vault Edition's extra content may not be worth it. Additionally, if cosmetics aren’t a priority, and you just want to enjoy the core gameplay, the Standard Edition might be the better choice.
- However, if you’re a dedicated Call of Duty fan who enjoys customizing characters and weapons, the Vault Edition’s content will be very appealing. Players looking for the best Zombies experience may also find value in the Vault Edition, especially with the inclusion of the GobbleGum Pack.
Ultimately, the worth of the Vault Edition depends on each player's preferences and budget. For most, the Standard Edition should suffice.
