Black Ops 7 features a Zombies experience with the debut round-based map, Ashes of the Damned, which is the largest in the series and pays tribute to the Tranzit map. It reunites iconic characters from Black Ops 6 with their Dark Aether counterparts, including Dempsey, Nikolai, Takeo, and Richtofen. Players can engage in four modes: Standard, Directed, Survival, and Cursed, with the return of Dead Ops Arcade. A new enemy, the Zursa, a zombified bear, introduces a fresh challenge, while Ol' Tessie, an upgradable pickup truck, serves as a significant navigational tool. The Cursed mode offers a greater challenge for dedicated fans. A new round-based map is expected to debut in Black Ops 7 Season 1, launching in early December.
