Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is launching its midseason update, Season 3 Reloaded, on April 30 at 1 PM Brasilia Time. This update introduces new missions, maps, zombie experiences, and limited-time modes across all game modes. Players can anticipate new operators, including RoboCop and Terry Crews as The Replacer. The cooperative PvE endgame has been expanded with new Operations that delve deeper into the narrative, alter combat strategies, and emphasize teamwork in boss encounters. For a limited time, players can experience Operation Broken Mirror (Act II): Gather Diagnostic Data for free, which involves creating a virus to neutralize the Guild Mirror Network. Successful completion offers rewards such as weapon blueprints, XP tokens, and exclusive loading screens. A new challenge, Viral Injection Glitch, features a glitch boss that, when defeated on Nightmare difficulty, unlocks the Aftershock skin and special camos. Additionally, a new boss, the Mega Abomination, has been added, with a guaranteed exotic weapon reward for its defeat. A new primary ability, Thermal Peak, has been introduced, allowing players to unleash persistent fire bursts to incinerate enemies. This ability will be available in multiplayer.

Multiplayer receives new arenas and modes designed to increase tactical depth and player creativity. The update includes a new map and two returning maps with enhancements, alongside modes that test both solo and team capabilities. Freerun Ascent, a timed race mode, challenges players with 10 skill zones, requiring precision and coordination to earn exclusive rewards. Season 3 Reloaded also introduces Totenreich, a new Zombies map set in a Norwegian fishing village influenced by Norse mythology and Group 935’s experiments. This map features new enemies like the Necropincer, a Viking spirit, and new weapons such as the Jotunn Star, a close-quarters weapon with spectral and fire attacks, and Flammenfalle, a trap that ignites zombies and buffs the Jotunn Star. The Wild Fire Field Upgrade, a new addition, provides heat pulses for enhanced combat effectiveness. Main mission rewards include skins, calling cards, and up to 25,000 XP. A new challenge, Cursed Mode, offers an extreme difficulty with a limited HUD and unique camouflage rewards for the Canopener.
