The Stick and Stones mode from the original Black Ops joined the game with its own featured playlist this week, while a new Strafe Run Scorestreak has been added to multiplayer too.

A double XP and double weapon XP event is also currently running in Black Ops Cold War and Warzone (see Warzone’s Season 3 patch notes) until April 26 at 10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm BST.

Zombies experience Outbreak, which “takes place across massive play spaces throughout the Ural Mountains, packed with new enemies, team objectives, player rewards, and intel to discover on foot, in vehicles, or by jump pads”, is available with the free trial too.

Season 3 added a new Outbreak region called Duga, a new Cargo Truck and a high-speed Fast Attack Vehicle, and the Toxic Growth Field Upgrade, which deals damage to and slows entangled enemies.
