Our next Black Ops 6 Zombies map arrives in Season 3, but how long will we have to wait to drop into Shattered Veil?
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has been a welcome return to form for Treyarch’s iconic Zombies mode. To date, we already have four incredible round-based experiences in the game, which is as many as Cold War and Vanguard received outright.
But the developer shows no signs of stopping here, and there’s a fifth round-based map just around the corner for Black Ops 6 fans!
Here’s when you’ll be able to drop into Shattered Veil and explore the mysterious mansion that acted as the headquarters of Project Janus:
Black Ops 6 Zombies Shattered Veil Release Date
Shattered Veil is confirmed to release in Black Ops 6 Season 3, which arrives on April 3, 2025.
Assuming the update goes live at the usual time, Season 3 should go live on April 3 at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET / 6 PM BST.
This means the new Zombies map should be playable in .
Shattered Veil was likely initially scheduled to launch on March 20 on the original Season 3 release date.
However, Activision delayed Season 3’s release by exactly two weeks, claiming it needed time to ensure it could deliver “a great experience.”
The map is expected to arrive alongside the season’s launch, due to the fact that Treyarch has already begun releasing in-game screenshots of the upcoming experience.
This usually only happens in the weeks prior to a map’s release, so it seems likely that Shattered Veil will arrive on day one of the new season.
Is There a Chance It Releases in Season 3 Reloaded?
Of course, given that Verdansk coming back to Warzone is certainly the headline of the season, we wouldn’t be shocked to see Treyarch announce that Shattered Veil will release mid-season instead.
If so, we’ll likely be waiting almost another month to see what secrets Eddie Richtofen was hiding in Liberty Falls.
However, the Zombies and Battle Royale communities are often quite different from one another, which is why we don’t expect Treyarch to delay the map’s launch just for Warzone’s sake.
After all, we can already see many COD fans hoping that Verdansk will fail, as a new leak indicated that Warzone support will cease entirely if the old map fails to bring back players.
And with Black Ops 6 hitting a record-low player count this month, it’s likely that Activision will want to deliver the best Season 3 update it possibly can.
