The Infected mode inCall of Duty Black Ops 6is the perfect playlist addition Treyarch and Activision could have made during the Halloween festivities.
Zombies have been a fantastic introduction so far, and both Liberty Falls andTerminushave seen plenty of action over the opening week. For the first time, you can enjoy a mode that’s a mix of classic multiplayer and zombies. Let’s check out how it works and how you can play this fun playlist.
How does the Infected mode work in Call of Duty Black Ops 6
The Infected mode isBlack Ops 6‘s own adaptation of one bad apple bringing down the rest (no, not literally). A game begins with any one player being designated as the Infected. The remaining players are all grouped as Survivors. The opening distribution of a team takes place after the “Infection Occurs” timer reaches its countdown and is purely random.
The Infected aim to attack and infect the survivors, while the Survivors must avoid the attacks at all costs. At the end of a round, the group with the most members will be declared the winner.
Can you use weapons in the Infected mode in Black Ops 6
Whether you’re an Infected or a Survivor, you’ll have weapons to carry out your work. There’s a slight difference, as an Infected can only use Melee weapons to hit a Survivor. When an Infected player hits a Survivor, they will become an Infected.
Since the Infected don’t have the luxury of range, they will have a second chance if hit by a Survivor. This can happen only once in a specific round and creates a unique challenge for the hunter and its prey.
If you’re enjoying the Infected mode, there’s more coming very soon. The Nuketown map will make its way later today, on November 1, followed by the introduction ofSeason 1on November 14, along with the integration of Warzone intoBlack Ops 6.
