CoD: Black Ops 6 And Warzone Season 1 Reloaded Includes Holiday Events, Snowball Fights, And New Zombies Map

Season 1 Reloaded arrives in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone on December 5, bringing plenty of midseason content. This includes the brand-new Citadelle des Morts Zombies map, Warzone Ranked Play, three new DLC weapons, holiday events across all modes, and more.
All of the highlighted content for Season 1 Reloaded can be seen below, including looks at all the new maps, holiday variants, and DLC weapons, as well as the wild-looking store bundles.
Activision has revealed the full gameplay and storyline trailers for Citadelle des Morts. The cinematics also set up an interesting narrative that merges storylines from previously unconnected Zombies storylines.

Season 1 Reloaded includes various holiday events across all modes, and these events from December 5-January 3. These include several event rewards, including the season's new DLC weapons. The full list can be viewed below.
Event: GobbleGum Mania (ZM only, December 5-19)
Event: Merry Mayhem (MP, ZM, WZ, December 5-19)
Merry Mayhem MP LTM: Ran-Snack (December 5)
Merry Mayhem ZM LTM: Jingle Hells: Liberty Falls (In-Season)
Merry Mayhem WZ LTM: Holiday Rush (December 5)
Event: Archie's Festival Frenzy (MP, ZM, WZ, December 19-January 3)
Archie's Festival Frenzy MP LTM: Ran-Snack, Infectious Holiday
Archie's Festival Frenzy ZM LTM: Jingle Hells: Liberty Falls (In-Season)
Archie's Festival Frenzy WZ LTM: Slay Ride Resurgence

The Maelstrom shotgun is a reward for the Merry Mayhem event arriving in Season 1 Reloaded. This is described as a fully automatic shotgun with good range and handling, but it also has high recoil and large hip spread.

The AMR Mod 4 sniper rifle is a midseason reward for the upcoming Archie's Festival Frenzy event. This is a semi-auto sniper rifle. It's described as a one-shot kill to the torso, arms, hands, and upper legs. It has very high recoil and a slow rate of fire.

The Cleaver melee weapon is another holiday-event reward. This is described as a one-hit kill with a short-to-medium attack range and medium attack speed.

Black Ops 6's multiplayer update includes three more maps. They includes the return of Black Ops 4's Hacienda, the new Racket strike map, and a holiday variant of Nuketown. Players can also expect new holiday game modes with Ran-Snack and Infectious Holiday.
Season 1 Reloaded adds the new Shrapnel Radar perk, and players can now earn a fourth scorestreak when using the new High Roller Wildcard.

The popular Hacienda map from Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is remastered for Black Ops 6. This map will be available for core 6v6 modes.

Racket is a brand-new Strike map that takes place inside a large bank vault. This is a small map that will be available for 6v6 and 2v2 modes.

Nuketown gets a little snow for the holiday with this festive map variant.

The Citadelle des Morts Zombies map arrives with the big update. This brand-new map takes place in a castle in France. Fitting of the castle setting, the unique Wonder Weapons for the map are four elemental swords. The map will include a full storyline Easter egg at launch, giving players a chance to uncover the hidden steps for themselves. The guided Director mode will arrive at a later date.
The map also launches with the Vulture Aid Perk-a-Cola, the Tesla Storm field upgrade, the Light Mend ammo mod, and 18 more Augments to unlock.

The Wonder Weapon is a claymore known as "The Bastard Sword," and this blade can be forged into four elemental types. Each has a unique special attack, as well as a passive effect that is powered up over time.
Caliburn: Dragon's Fire - Create a fiery maelstrom of burning undead flesh, setting zombies alight and summoning an immense fireball.
Durendal: Stag of the Storms - Summon thunderous power from the skies, discharging voltaic power to stun and stagger, before an electrical beam serves up a severe searing.
Balmung: Raven's Shadow - Cast your rotting foes into the Aetherial abyss, warping nearby enemies with a focused liminal tear.
Solais: Lion of Light - The warmth of Light courses through you as you send foes screaming into darkness.

The Vulture Aid perk returns from Black Ops 2's Zombies mode. This perk allows players to gain an increase in the variety of loot dropped from enemies. It can be made even more useful with the season's new Augments.
This perk machine can be found on the Citadelle des Morts map, but it can also be equipped on Liberty Falls and Terminus by purchasing it from the Der Wunderfizz machine.

The new Light Mend ammo mod deals elemental light damage. Each bullet has a chance to transform a normal or special enemy's health into a healing glyph that moves to nearby injured allies. It can also be upgraded to be more powerful with the addition of Augments.
This Ammo Mod can be used in all three Zombies maps by purchasing it at any Arsenal machine.

The Tesla Storm field upgrade returns. For 10 seconds, this field upgrade will connect lightning to other players, stunning and damaging normal enemies.
Tesla Storm can be upgraded with Augments, and it can also be used in a player's loadout for all three Zombies maps.

The Season 1 Reloaded update for Warzone brings the competitive Ranked Play mode to battle royale. Players can climb the Ranked Play ladder and earn brand-new rewards. The update also includes holiday festivities, such as map updates, snowball fights on Area 99, and the Slay Ride Resurgence mode on Urzikstan.

Warzone's Ranked Play will arrive sometime during Season 1 Reloaded, and this competitive mode will feature standard battle royale on Urzikstan.
To access Ranked Play, players must first place in the Top 15 in battle royale or the Top 6 in Resurgence across a total of 30 matches. Placements from Season 1 count toward this requirement.

Warzone's Ranked Play skin rewards.

Warzone's Ranked Play features a variety of unique rewards players can earn including new operator skins, calling cards, emblems, and more. There are both career and seasonal rewards as shown above.

Warzone's Slay Ride Resurgence mode returns to Urzikstan. In this mode, players can take part in festivities, such as deadly snowball tosses, capturing trees for loot, hunting reindeer, and battling for control of Undead Santa's Slay Ride. Last team standing wins.

The midseason update also includes plenty of new store bundles. They include the colorful and unicorn-themed Tracer Pack: Brightmare Mastercraft Ultra Skin bundle. The pack includes the "Brightrider" operator skin and the "Dreadhorn" Mastercraft blueprint for the AS VAL assault rifle, as well as additional cosmetics.

Black Ops 6 already includes operator skins to let players become raccoons and sharks, but Season 1 Reloaded adds the stoner amphibian bundle. The Tracer Pack: Dank Days Reactive Mastercraft Ultra Skin bundle includes the amphibious "Blunty" operator skin, the "Bongshot" Mastercraft blueprint for the KSV submachine gun, as well as additional cosmetics.

Another colorful bundle is the Tracer Pack: Otaku We Gotchu Mastercraft Ultra Skin bundle. This anime-themed bundle features the "Aero" operator skin, the "Helm" Mastercraft blueprint for the LW3A1 Frostline sniper rifle, as well as additional items.

Lastly, here is the first look at the Squid Game operator skins announced for January 2025.
