Die frisch veröffentlichten Karten fürden Shooter Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 widmen sich dem Namen nach einem düsteren Thema: „Seaside Sunset“ und „Firing Range Night“. Entwickler Treyarch hat den Inhalt des Updates im offiziellen Subreddit aufgelistet. Ebenfalls dabei sind die Modi Hardcore Nuketown, Chaos Hardpoint und Mercenary Objective Moshpit.

Neu für Blackout-Spieler (also Battle Royale) ist ein Bowie-Messer für sofortige Schleich-Kills, welches man in Versorgungs-Kisten oder bei Zombies ergattern kann. Spieler der PS4-Fassung bekommen ein paar Extrawürste gebraten, die es anderswo noch nicht gibt: Sie finden u.a. im Multiplayer eine neue Safeguard-Playlist, bei der man einen Roboter ins feindliche Territorium eskortieren muss. Blackout-Spieler bekommen auf Sonys Konsolen Zugriff auf neue Charakter-Missionen im „Zombies Origins“-Thema, mit denen sie Dempsey, Nikolai, Takeo und Richtofen freischalten.
