Fans are particularly excited about the return of the iconic round-based Zombies mode and are eager to learn whether they’ll get a chance to dive into the action before the full game drops.

Is there Black Ops 6 Zombies early access? Here’s the official answer

The fan-favorite round-based Zombies mode is making a thrilling comeback in BO6, launching with two brand-new maps — Terminus Island and Liberty Falls.

These maps are designed to challenge even the most experienced players, featuring powerful weapons, mysterious power-ups, and intricately hidden Easter eggs that promise hours of cooperative gameplay and deep storytelling.

Players reunite with three prominent members of the Requiem team — Grigori Weaver, Dr. Elizabeth Grey, and Mackenzie “Mac” Carver. Joining them is a new character, Maya Aguinaldo, as they battle endless waves of the undead, seek to reclaim their freedom, and exact justice for their wrongful imprisonment.

Moreover, Black Ops 6 Zombies will feature its own exclusive set of weapon mastery camos, distinct from those available in Multiplayer and Warzone.

Historically, certain Call of Duty titles have offered early access to specific modes, such as Campaign or Multiplayer.

However, in an official statement given to CharlieIntel, an Activision representative confirmed that Black Ops 6 will not follow this trend, stating that there will be no early access for any mode, including Zombies.

“The team is fully focused on October 25th. We are excited about everything the game has to offer across Campaign, Multiplayer, and Zombies. This year, we’ve decided to ensure the entire community gets access to all modes simultaneously, bringing back one massive global launch moment on October 25th. As such, there will be no early access beta for Black Ops 6,” said the representative.

Although early access won’t be available, players can still look forward to an exciting and immersive Zombies experience on launch day, as hinted by the Black Ops 6 Zombies Intel blog post, trailers, and gameplay previews.
