Black Ops 6 devs reveal one enemy type won’t be on new Zombies map

Black Ops 6 Zombies fans feared they would have to deal with an annoying enemy type on the new map in Season 3, but Treyarch assured fans it wouldn’t be an issue.

BO6’s fifth Zombies map, The Mansion, is scheduled to launch in Season 3, which starts on April 3. Besides one image, we don’t know much about the new setting. This map takes place within Liberty Falls, one of the two launch maps. 

As for the story, previous cinematics revealed that the house belongs to Edward Richtofen, the creator of the Wunderwaffe Wonder Weapon. It remains to be seen if the map will be large or small and if players should anticipate a new Wonder Weapon.

New maps in this title also typically introduce new enemy types, but all signs point to this map removing a fearsome foe.

Amalgams reportedly won’t be on new Zombies map

Treyarch posted an image of the new Zombies map.

One fan said, “Cannot wait to feel the wrath of 20 amalgams on this map, too.”

The Amalgam is an elite enemy whose body consists of multiple zombie limbs and heads. The giant creature grabs players and bites them, dealing massive damage.

Amalgams are challenging to deal with because they have a lot of health and can take multiple rounds of ammunition before finally going down.

When there is more than one running at you, along with other zombies, it’s a nightmare.

The best way to eliminate the pesky bullet sponges is to use Napalm Burst ammo type or Dead Wire, as the ammunition types deal massive damage.

In the absence of Amalgams, we expect Treyarch to introduce a new troublesome abomination. In saying that, it should be a relief that you can at least avoid one of the more challenging obstacles.
