Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Gets New Info on Season 2 Zombies Outbreak and More

Developer Treyarch has announced that Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Season 2 will bring players a brand new way to experience combatting zombies on a massive scale via Outbreak.

Outbreak is an objective-based experience that will task squads of up to four Operators with aiding Requiem in their biggest challenge yet. New Aetherium Crystal types; Refined and Flawless, will arrive alongside Outbreak. These new Aetherium Crystal types will help Requiem Agents permanently upgrade their Weapon Classes, Field Upgrades, Perks, and Ammo Mods.

There are 3 Aetherium Crystal types that players can obtain from completing main objectives. These types are listed below:

• Raw Aetherium Crystals – Requiem agents know this resource well. These are used to upgrade Skills for Weapon Classes, Field Upgrades, Perks, and Ammo Mods through the first three Tiers of power.
• Refined Aetherium Crystals – A more matured crystal structure. A greater energy source used to upgrade Skills to Tier IV.
• Flawless Aetherium Crystals  – This is the highest maturity an Aetherium Crystal can reach. This incredibly powerful resource is used to upgrade Skills to Tier V.

Season 2 for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will launch on February 26, 2021.

To celebrate the launch of Season 2, players will be able to play a selection of Multiplayer and Zombies content, including the all-new Outbreak content for free, thanks to the game’s new Free Access Week.
