Since launch, it is no secret Call of Duty: Vanguard Zombies players have not been pleased with the absence of classic round-based matches from maps. The mode format was previously the status quo since its debut in World at War, but that all changed once the latest iteration chose to favor only objective-focused experiences. Well, it seems this won’t be the case for long, as Developer Treyarch Studios has unraveled plans to bring the format back alongside one classic map.
In a recent Blog post, the developer revealed round-based Zombies will debut in Vanguard with a remade version of World at War map Shi No Numa. The incoming map is said to feature new quests, remastered Easter eggs, Pack-a-Punch camos, and a Dark Aether narrative. It is not understood if the game’s current maps will hold round-based matches anytime soon, but Treyarch says it is aiming to release the Shi No Numa map “after Season Three concludes.”
It also sounds as if the round-based format won’t alter the beloved formula from past games, as the blog makes brief mention of wave-spawning, Door Buys, and Wall Buys. Speaking of past games, the blog surprisingly details that Black Ops Cold War will also new content. For one, original Black Ops map Jungle is slated to release in Multiplayer in the near future, as well as a new “ranged-weapon” and operator.
In the meantime, Vanguard fans have much too long forward to next season. A new teaser has revealed Season Three will be launching on April 27 — and possibly with kaiju.
