Black Ops 7 Season 4 Reloaded drops on June 25, bringing Nicolas Cage operator skins, classic map returns, new Zombies content, and fresh multiplayer modes.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is rolling out its mid-season refresh, and the headline addition is almost too wild to ignore.

Beyond the celebrity star power, Season 4 Reloaded packs a serious nostalgic punch alongside fresh gameplay additions. The iconic map Launch from the original Black Ops is making its triumphant return to multiplayer alongside a brand-new arena called Zenith. Fans of classic playstyles will also be thrilled to see the Black Ops Classic playlist locked in as a permanent fixture, joined by rotating modes like Team Blueprint Sharpshooter and Knife Fight. Meanwhile, Endgame mode is kicking off Operation King Killer, challenging squads to hunt down The Guild's Central Command Node and take down the Prime Target Glitch Boss to unlock exclusive operator gear.
Zombies players are getting a massive injection of new content as well with the introduction of Kowakujō, a fresh map packed with its own wonder weapon, a terrifying new enemy type, additional gobblegums, and a main quest to unravel. As digital economies and seasonal passes continue to shape how we experience live-service shooters, updates like this highlight how developers keep communities engaged between major releases. You can check out the full breakdown and exact global rollout times in the original report on Polygon.
