Black Ops 7 Zombies DLC Wonder Weapons, Returning Enemies, Perks, Maps, Outbreak Cancelled leaks BO7
We have gotten tons of leaks for Black Ops 7 Zombies’s DLC as well as the launch experience, Ashes of the Damned. So, this is all coming from the beta files, which I just absolutely cannot believe that Treyarch still keep making the same goddamn mistake of leaving absolutely everything in the files of the game year after year. As you know, the whole mid and ending cuts scene dialogue has leaked for the Ashes of the Damned Easter egg. I just don’t know what the hell’s going on. They really need to sort this out so this doesn’t keep happening. But, I’m going to go through everything today. Obviously, like with all leaks and rumors, take it with a grain of salt. This is all stuff from the files of the game, but could be misinterpreted or cut content, etc. So, bear that in mind. But let’s go over firstly regarding DLC perks. So, apparently both Widow’s Wine and Mule Kick are going to be returning in Black Ops 7 Zombies during its DLC. Now, we don’t know when they’re going to be back or anything like that, but I would suspect we’re probably going to get a new perk in season 1 since they usually try and frontload their DLC cycle to have more content at the start rather than later because that’s when the player base is at the highest. And it does seem like mule kick is probably going to be the first perk, which is Z_mod in the files of the game. Now, the reason why mule kick is probably the first perk is regarding the fact that the augments are already in the files of the game. Now, we don’t know what the augments actually do. We just have the names which are plate hunter, pack mule, which I don’t know, does it mean that your third weapon automatically becomes pack-a-punch? We have all reliable, fully equipped. Maybe that restocks the third weapon’s ammunition or something. Free throw. Does that mean you can throw your third weapon? I don’t know. Buy one, get one. Now, the buy one is the same one from Black Ops Cold War, which was tier one. Crafted equipment grants an additional equipment if available. So, yeah, obviously Mu Kick allows you to have three weapons. It should have been back already. This will be great though, considering we have multiple wonder weapons already. You can have all of them if you really want. And yeah, I’m really excited for Widow’s Wine to be back as well. That was so so much fun. We just don’t know what the augments are going to be yet. But yeah, I’m really hyped for Widows Wine to be back. Obviously, if you didn’t play Black Ops 3 zombies, it was really overpowered perk. It increased your melee damage, which I don’t think it’ll do the same anymore considering we already have melee makiato. You also got these spider grenades, and when zombies would hit you, the spider grenades would explode, basically protecting you. you wouldn’t take as much damage. It was really, really good and I really want to see it back. But how are they going to balance it? We’ll have to see. How will the augments be? We’ll have to see. But speaking of leaked perks, apparently Stone Cold Stronghold, which was a fan favorite perk from Black Ops 7 zombies, will also be coming back, but not as a perk itself. Instead, it’s going to be added as a frost blast augment, which will put a protective ring around you. And whilst you’re in this ring, you can receive a damage boost against enemies and slowly gain armor over time. And you also get damage and armor boost. So, kind of like Ring of Fire, but they’re going to be merging it with Frost Blast in a way. I don’t know how this is going to play out. Obviously, they didn’t bring back Ring of Fire because they found it overpowered. Everyone was using it. So, I guess they’re trying to rebalance it and rework it into something that already exists. Obviously, Ring of Fire also increased your damage output, etc. In addition, we’ve had some other augments leaked for the season 1 items. So, as you know, some of the Black Ops 6 content, unfortunately, is being held back and not releasing until season 1. So for light men, there’s going to be an augment called booster shot as dual action was a mistake and that’s one that’s already present. And mitosis shatter blast has the blast off and blast shield. Mr. Peaks has one that is family discount and peak health. Does that restore you to max health when you activate? And what is the family discount? I don’t know. And then we also have the frost blast stronghold one that I mentioned before. Tesla Storm apparently does not have any listed in the files yet. We’ll have to wait and see what they actually are, but those are all the ones being saved for season 1. We don’t know if it’s in reloaded or if it’s the start of season 1. We’ll have to wait and see. Another leak that I want to talk about is regarding the fact that we obviously have the different hood themes that are going to be coming to Black Ops 7 zombies. Now, they’re not in the beta right now. Trey has announced it, but they’ve not given us much details. And it seems like the reason why they didn’t show it at Call of Duty next is because it’s unfinished. So, there’s going to be loads of hood themes. There’s literally one that’s the same from COD 3. So, I think these hood themes are going to be present in multiplayer and zombies. So, maybe you can even play with the Black Ops 3 zombies hood inside of multiplayer, which will be wild. But there’s going to be the blue hood from the giant and there’ll also be the orange one from Shadows of Evil. But there’s going to be plenty of other hoods to choose from like there’s a dark ether crystal one, etc. But apparently some of these are going to be locked behind bundles that you have to buy in the store/ the battle pass/event rewards. Maybe some will be Easter egg rewards or cursed mode rewards, etc. We’re not exactly sure, but some are basically going to be getting sold to us and some as rewards. So, I’m hoping that at least the Black Ops 3 one and a couple others are available for free for everyone at launch. I’m hoping so, but they are unfinished. Some of them have some missing pieces. So, we’re going to have to wait for Trey to officially announce this and showcase it. I don’t know why they didn’t show Air Call of Duty next though because people have been so annoyed about the hood. Even if it’s unfinished, they could have just given a preview screen unless they’re worried that it’s not going to be ready for launch, but I don’t think so. But yeah, I’m really glad about that. And they’ll probably be selling us and releasing new hoods in the post launch. It seems like that’s going to happen, which honestly I can see this as being a really bad thing. It’s not a great thing that they’re doing that, but at the same time, if they give us some good hoods, like the Black Ops 3 one on launch, etc., if they release even more post launch, but you have to buy them, I’m not going to be as annoyed if there’s already good ones there, as long as they aren’t even better. But it is a shame that they’ve not been making new zombies hoods, and finally, they’re going to be making some original ones. Not even just bringing back the Black Ops 2 ones, they’re going to be making some new ones, and they might be selling them to us, or at least some of them. I know it’s going to make them a lot of money, but it’s just a shame that they’ve taken our criticism and now they’re trying to rinse us off money and capitalize on it. Another thing is regarding the DLC 1 map, apparently each of the Black Ops 7 zombies maps will have different dark ether themes/colors. So, we’ve been seeing the purple dark ether over and over again. And whilst it looks great in Ashes of the Damned because they’ve gone for a much more mysterious vibe for it and a less saturated look compared to, for example, D Machines variant that was very saturated, I like both for different reasons since they’re going for a more horror vibe with Ashes of the Damned. It seems like thankfully in the DLC they’re going to be changing things up because we saw a red dark ether in Vanguard. So we know the dark ether is not all just this purple aesthetic. Apparently DLC 1 will be a yellowish hue. So I’m hoping the other DLC’s will be like red, green, blue, orange, etc. I think that’ll be good to make the dark ether not just feel all sy. But I don’t know what the yellowish vibe would fit with. There’s been rumors that the New York map will be DLC 1, but I don’t think that’s true. I’ve explained why in prior videos. To me, the color best fits an Afghanistan map. Obviously, however, I don’t think that’s DLC 1 either. I’m leaning towards space station right now, considering that Treyarch teased it as being fully metal. And what’s more metal than a literal space station? Even though I previously thought it would probably be the final map that best matches, but maybe them saying metal is more so describing the vibe of the map or the music genre/ Easter egg as opposed to literal metal. Now, apparently the code names for the leaked maps are apparently Ruby and Mantis. I mean, you can’t really take much out of these code names. They just name them random things. So, I don’t think this is any indication. I would love to see a prey and mantis boss fight as one of the shadow smiths, though. That would be so epic. Now, regarding wonder weapons. So, we don’t know much about the wonder weapons, but apparently DLC 1 and DLC 2’s wonder weapons are both going to be shotguns. That’s literally all we know. Now, I don’t know why they’re releasing two shotguns back to back, unless one is not going to be DLC 2 and that’ll actually release later. Surely that would be a bit repetitive having two shotguns back to back like that. But, yeah, we don’t really know about what they are. Uh, you know, shotguns have a wide range of different types, so it’s possible they could be very, very different. In terms of the survival maps releasing in DLC 1, Treyarch have already announced that season 1 will have three zombies maps. We’re going to get one new fullyfledged one, the proper DLC 1 map, and then we’re also going to be getting two survival maps. And they seem to both be from Ashes of the Damned, as we’re apparently going to be getting the exit 115, which is essentially Diner from the original Transit releasing. And we’re also getting the Grom facility which is going to be the mini version of Ascension essentially more similar to the launch multiplayer map Zara Cosmo Drrome. So I’m really excited to play that. I think these are definitely the best two picks for the first survival maps. T have said not all of the points of interest from Ashes of the Damned will release the survival maps, but it’s good that they’re frontloading the Ashes of the Damn survival experiences first. And I’m assuming we’re going to get some survival experiences from the DLC maps as well. I think this is going to be great because we’re going to be getting new zombies maps every single season, even in seasons where there’s not a fully brand new map. There’ll be survival experiences and new modes, etc. So, there’s always going to be something happening. Now, not speaking of the DLC, but speaking of Ashes of the Damned, we also have some information on the mysterious cube seen on the pedestal beneath the vault that I’ve been talking about in videos is probably an eye of some kind or some sort of evil entity that influenced the Vandons to commit the murders. Well, in the fans of the game, it’s referenced as a flesh vault and is actually called a prison vault in the game. And apparently, you obtain the wonder weapon, the Necrfluid gauntlet through a vault of some sort as well. So, it’s potential that this vault is going to be used in the wonder weapon quest, which makes sense because the gauntlet is physically alive. So, maybe the dark ether entity is actually within the vault that we use for it, which would be very creepy and cool. And it has this new dark ether language on it as well. So, it makes total sense. We also have the full list of TED tasks. Now, they’re not anything crazy. These are basically the new trials. Now, I’m not going to read them all, but you can pause the video and read them all on screen. I mean, they’re kind of the things you would come to expect. There’s nothing really too crazy, but let me know in the comments what you think of all of these. Elix has also posted an image of classic mode. Now, obviously, this is just the code name for curse mode. I don’t think they’re going to release just a regular classic mode. I mean, they could potentially. Obviously, with curse, you have the relic, so you can turn certain features on and off. Maybe there is going to be a classic mode that just has a load of set presets. I think it would be good for Treyarch to do that, but I don’t think they will. But maybe they will post launch just as a way for, you know, those fans who are complaining that curse mode is not unlocked straight away, so they can jump into it. Apparently, the internal name for Tessy, the wonder vehicle is Pluto in the files. I mean, there’s not really much information we can take from that. We also have all of the other point of interest now, apparently for Ashes of the Damned. As you know, some of them were locked for when the YouTubers played them at Call of Duty next. And to be honest, it’s not anything crazy apart from the major one, which is there’s apparently going to be an order graveyard. Absolutely wild. That sounds so cool. I can’t wait to explore that. There’s going to be some cool Easter egg steps. Are there going to be literal gravestones? Some dead orders? There’s definitely going to be some cool things. I would imagine a wonder weapon step definitely there, especially because it’s alive. We probably collect something from order. But what does that mean storyline wise? Has something been hunting and killing orders? Obviously, they were a part of Forsaken’s faction. He recruited them. But maybe the shadow smith/the warden have actually been killing these. Why are they all dead here though of all things? I’m not exactly sure. But this is really really cool. When I saw this map actually I thought that order would fit in perfectly to just be wandering around the map because it’s kind of like an outbreak experience with how big it is and the dark ominous vibe really fits and really reminds me of when we first saw Order on D machine teased to us. So I can’t wait to explore this area. That’s very cool and I can understand why Trey didn’t want to see that and spoil it to us. But it is a shame that this has leaked from the files of the game anyways. But it really is Treyarch’s fault again for leaving this in the files. And no one’s managed to glitch out the map yet to actually explore this area, but they could theoretically. I’m glad though that we haven’t been able to see it though yet, so at least that’s still a surprise. And for some other news, apparently Outbreak will not be coming to Black Ops 7 zombies after all. Now, this was obvious because they’ve only marketed round based. And considering we know we’re getting more RAM based experiences than ever before, considering they’re bringing back survivor maps post launch, outbreak was never really on the table. Trey could not balance that simultaneously. There was apparently going to be a Liberty Falls outbreak map for Black Ops 6, but that got canned. Instead, we’re just getting a Liberty Falls war zone experience with Haven’s Hollow, and we might have seen Outbreak on Avalon at one point in time, but of course, data miners and leakers were saying Outbreak was still in development. But then Endgame was announced, which is essentially Modern Warfare zombies, kind of like Outbreak, but more like Modern Warfare zombies, a DMZ type mode where you’re going to complete missions on Avalon, but there’s going to be real humans, so it’s going to be more like DMZ, but there’s going to be no PVP. And there are going to be zombies on the map as well. There does appear to be a red zone and everything, but we don’t have many details in Endgame just yet. But now, according to reality, all of the stuff they were thinking was for Outbreak is actually just for Endgame. So Outbreak is not coming for Black Ops 7. Now, personally, I do want to see Outbreak at one point in time. I was disappointed with Modern Warfare zombies, though it was more like a DMZ than Outbreak. It didn’t feel like a true evolution of what an Outbreak 2.0 could have been. So, I want to see open world zombies in the future that we can play indefinitely, unlike on a limited time like a DMZ, but Tre do not have any plans for that anytime soon. It doesn’t look like now. I do think they will do that eventually, but we might be a few years out or more. I do think they should do it again. Like I said, it got cancelled for Black Ops 6. I know there’s people who just want to see round based and I do really like round base but it does get stale and personally I saw the potential of open world zombies and I think that tre just haven’t refined it and iterated on it enough yet to find their footing. Of course it’s been very controversial both times they’ve done it with outbreak and modern warfare zombies for different reasons or some similar reasons. But we saw many improvements with Modern Warfare zombies but many detractions at the same time. But it showed that there is potential there. They just need to figure out their footing, which I don’t think they’re going to be doing for a while. Years out, but eventually Outbreak will return for those fans. I know some people just want to see Round Base, but we’ve had decades, literally decades of round base. It’s about time. Zombies gets taken to new levels, and that can only be achieved through new open world experiences. Now, we’ve seen with Ashes of the Dam, they can create huge, huge experiences that look aesthetically pleasing as well. That would be perfect for Outbreak. Ashes of the Dam will be a perfect Outbreak experience, honestly. So, I hope whenever they do bring back open world zombies, we get an experience like Ashes of the Damned where it’s very atmospheric at the same time and the world feels alive, which it didn’t in Outbreak. And for some extra news, as you know, in the beta, we all got a shock when we found out that Doppler gas are in from round 40 onwards. Well, in the files of the game, there appears to be medals for manglers, mimics, abominations, amalgams, parasites, and vermin. And these are updated medals. They’re not just copied and pasted from Black Ops 6. They have the futuristic theme. However, as Magua has gone on to explain, they are not the same as the Black Ops 7 medals we have seen so far. So, it’s possible this is an old version of the medals or a new version for the launch of the game. I’ve also seen some people speculating that it could be for the endgame mode since that’s going to have zombies as well. There could be all of these different special enemies. So, what do you think about this? Now, Trek have already said that they are planning on having unique enemies for every single one of the DLC maps, but we already know Doppler gas are back. So, it is possible that all of these are going to return. Now, to be honest, I don’t think we should worry too much until it actually happens because I think Treyarch are testing around all of the enemy types. It doesn’t necessarily mean they’re all going to make it into the game. Obviously, with Black Ops 6 and 7 sharing the same engine that they’re basically the same game. I’m sure they’re testing things out with all of the different enemies and maybe just having some specific to some rounds. But, I really hope especially the Malgams and the vermin do not return. I don’t want to see them. They were overused way too much in Black Ops 6. Even the doppelgast is really pushing it. I want to see purely new enemies, but like I say, the game’s been in development for a long time. So, the fact this stuff is in the files just means that it’s being tested. It doesn’t mean it’s going to materialize, but it’s hard to have faith in Treyarch that this won’t happen considering Doppast back, even if they are limited to one round. I don’t want to see manglers in a limited quantity or any of this either. So, yeah, that’s all of the leaked information we have for Black Ops 7 Zombies’s DLC and a bit of Ashes of the Damned information as well. More will probably be coming out over the coming days, so if there’s anything major, I’ll be sure to make a video on it. Let me know your thoughts down below, of course. Thank you for watching, and I’ll see you with plenty more to come.
