When is the new Zombies map coming to CoD BO6? Release date confirmed
Treyarch has confirmed that Citadelle des Morts, the new BO6 Zombies map, will launch on Thursday 5th December 2024 at 5pm GMT.

The 5pm release time stays in line with the Season 1 update, which went live in early November.

What to expect from the new Zombies map in CoD BO6
Set in an abandoned central European castle, Citadelle des Morts contains a wealth of areas to explore.
Ranging from the Town Square in the centre of the map to the Dungeon and Undercroft packed with a maze of winding tunnels, there are plenty of places where the undead can emerge.
Alongside a new spooky setting, Citadelle des Morts introduces a brand new enemy in the form of the Doppelghast.
The Doppelghast features two screaming heads constantly on the hunt for their next victim. Its erratic movements are guaranteed to make it a tricky opponent to contend with when making it to the higher rounds.

Expect a similar atmosphere to Terminus, with lots of dark areas to explore and all kinds of creatures to fend off.
As with all new Zombies maps, there will be a new Easter Egg quest to complete as the story continues to evolve with each post-launch season.
Shortly after players have had time to figure out the main Easter Egg quest, Treyarch will launch a Directed mode to give players a helping hand.
In addition to a new map, the developer has shared intel on some of the items players can expect to see within the confines of Citadelle des Morts:
- Bastard Sword Wonder Weapon
- Vulture Aid Perk-a-Cola
- Light Mend Ammo Mod
- Tesla Storm Field Upgrade
- Power Keg GobbleGum
- Time Out GobbleGum
- Holiday Cheer GobbleGum
- Hand Cannon Scorestreak
Tesla Storm, Light Mend and Vulture Aid all have new Minor and Major Augments to research, ranging from faster healing to an increased chance of Zombies dropping your current set of equipment.
