According to Cold War 1.24 patch notes, latest Season 6 introduces a variety of free content in Multiplayer and Zombies, with The Numbers Event delivering content across both games later in the season. Additionally, COD Cold War version 1.24 also includes new operators and weapons.
Previously, a big Season 5 update added free content includes a first-in-the-franchise Double Agent mode in Multiplayer alongside new and classic Black Ops maps.

Cold War 1.24 Patch Notes (Season 6)
“Forsaken” — The Epic Conclusion toBlack Ops Cold WarZombies (Launch)
“This is the place. We must make our stand here.” —Sergei Ravenov
In “Mauer der Toten,” Requiem’s elite strike team stopped Doctor Aleksandra Valentina from unleashing an undead army into our dimension, narrowly escaping Omega Group’s clutches thanks to Samantha Maxis and her newfound powers.
In “Forsaken,” the final round-based map inBlack Ops Cold WarZombies, the team is ready to finish the fight at the heart of Omega Group: a secret test site in the U.S.S.R. that threatens to invite an even greater supernatural threat into the world. Behind the scenes, Requiem’s secretive Director makes the call to approve Maxis for “Operation First Domino” as Requiem and Omega prepare for the final showdown.
Along with additional Zombies features—including a new Perk, Wonder Weapon, two additional Support Weapons, and more—“Forsaken” comes with a new set of Challenges and new in-game Intel to uncover.
WithVanguardaround the corner, the Treyarch Zombies team is ready to close one chapter of the Dark Aether story and open the door to another, with plenty of details yet to come. Stay connected to theCall of Dutyblog and Treyarch’s social channels for a developer-focused look at the shockingBlack Ops Cold WarZombies finale.
New Perk & Perk Machines in “Forsaken”
Time to get down and send some zombies flying.
After downing a bottle of PhD Slider, the tenth and final Zombies Perk inBlack Ops Cold War, an Operator can take advantage of the following effect:
Sliding into enemies triggers an explosion. The size and damage increases the farther you slide before impact.
This Perk turns you into a living weapon that grows even more deadly as you invest Aetherium Crystals into its Skills Tiers, which feature full immunity to self-inflicted explosive damage, the ability to trigger an explosive payload after falling from a vertical distance, and more.
Look for PhD Slider in its dedicated Perk Machine in “Forsaken” and in the Der Wunderfizz machine in all round-based maps and Outbreak. The Death Perception Perk, introduced in Season Five, will also have its own standalone machine on the new map for the first time.
New Wonder Weapon — Discover the Chrysalax
The ultimate tool for splitting Zombies like wood, the Chrysalax can be discovered in “Forsaken” as part of its own quest, through completing Trials, or by trying your luck at the Mystery Box.
Forged in the Dark Aether, there is more to this Wonder Weapon than what appears on its surface, boasting the ability to convert between a powerful battle axe and a rapid-fire energy weapon.
New Zombies Support Weapons — ARC-XD and Hand Cannon
Two new powerful Support options are here to help fend off the undead at the launch of Season Six:
ARC-XD— The Aether Remote-Controlled Explosive Device (ARC-XD) is an advanced Support Weapon fitted with an Aetherium Crystal that acts as a decoy, emitting a sound to draw enemy attention. The ARC-XD will continually pulse a small Aether blast that can kill normal enemies and launch them on contact. It is capable of fitting through tight crawl spaces, yet powerful enough to send a group of undead soldiers back to their graves.
Hand Cannon— Originally found as a hidden weapon in the Campaign and introduced to Multiplayer in Season Four, the Hand Cannon joins Zombies as one of Season Six’s Support Weapons. Hindered only by a strong vertical kick and slow rate of fire, the Hand Cannon can blast away zombies with ease, especially Special and Elite enemies with precision shots.
Multiplayer — Three Mind-Blowing Maps on Day One
Season Six goes beyond the Iron Curtain and into the mind of Russell Adler for its new trio of Multiplayer maps, all available at the launch of Season Six.
Deprogram (6v6, Launch)
During Adler’s interrogation and deprogramming, memories from his convoluted past come to life as a warped combat arena in Deprogram. Here, you’ll pass through Red Doors as the fight rages on throughout Adler’s broken mind.
Each part of this map is a fragment of Adler’s memories, stitched together to form one of the most unique map experiences ever seen inCall of Duty. The Red Doors found throughout Deprogram can be used to quickly traverse the map, which may lead to power positions over objectives or be used for four-dimensional plays that can help you outsmart opponents.
Amerika (6v6, Launch)
Take the war to a Soviet recreation of an American Main Street in Season Six’s next 6v6 map, Amerika.
A secret military facility in the heart of the U.S.S.R., this medium-sized map will have you fighting through a replica of a town that includes a pizzeria, theater, and a Burger Town mock-up. Maneuver through these buildings for close-quarter battles, and watch out for long-range weaponry that is sure to lock down the block.
Gluboko (2v2 and 3v3, Launch)
Taking place in the underground vault of the KGB headquarters, Gluboko serves as the newest map where Operators can battle in Gunfight and Face Off variants, including Face Off 6v6.
The Lubyanka Building’s underbelly can be home to extremely fast-paced engagements, as fights will spill out around and on top of the main briefing table.
Don’t forget to capture that Overtime flag if your opponent is still standing during a round of Gunfight
New Operators — Alex Mason and Fuze Join the Fight
NATO and Perseus have saved their strongest reinforcements for the final showdown ahead.
Alex Mason: NATO (Launch)
The originalBlack Opsprotagonist arrives just in time for what could be Adler and Stitch’s ultimate duel.
Hailing from the harsh wilderness within the Golden Heart of Alaska known as Fairbanks, Mason is a former Marine whose service record and reputation are mired in controversy. Despite his impulsive and reckless behavior, his effectiveness in the field is indisputable.
Mason is responsible for single-handedly neutralizing Doctor Friedrich Steiner, assisting the CIA in preventing a Nova 6 attack, eliminating Nikita Dragovich, and helping Adler and his team in stopping Operation Greenlight from destabilizing the world during the Cold War.
Mason is available with the Season Six Battle Pass at Tier 0. What does that number mean? Purchase the Battle Pass, and you’ll unlock him for use acrossBlack Ops Cold WarandWarzone.
Fuze: Warsaw Pact (In-Season)
Benito “Fuze” Ortega is a soldier of fortune hired by Perseus for his bomb-disposal expertise. His mission, as seen during Season Six’s Intro Cinematic: Disrupt the seismic devices found under Verdansk.
Fuze is a thrill-seeker from Madrid who never turned down a high-stakes job, no matter the risk. Despite the loss of his legs, he’s persevered, becoming the elite Operator he is today, keeping his eclectic sense of humor and allegiance to the almighty dollar in the process.
Obtain this mercenary working for Perseus in a Store Bundle available later in the season.
Call of Duty: VanguardPre-Purchase Reward: Arthur Kingsley Operator*
Prior to Season Six’s launch, you can get access to one more Operator forBlack Ops Cold WarandWarzone: Sgt. Arthur Kingsley, one of the main heroes ofCall of Duty: Vanguard.
Before moving to England to study at Cambridge University, Arthur grew up in Cameroon. After witnessing the impact of the Axis regime on North Africa, he enlisted in the British Army, ready to protect his home and the greater world from evil.
