Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 – Zombies

Though the story picks up where we left off at the culmination of Black Ops 6's Reckoning, players would be wise to question exactly where this new crew has been transported to. The entire Black Ops 7 story takes place within the "beating heart" of the Dark Aether — including future maps — as different timelines collide in the form of a combined, eight-person crew.

Dempsey, Nikolai, Takeo, Richtofen, Maya, Weaver, Carver, and Grey are all "Dedicated Crew" characters, and although any Black Ops 7 Operator can be chosen in Zombies, you'll experience additional conversations and the richest story if you and your teammates choose from the crew. Long-time Zombies fans will recognize three familiar voices returning to portray the new Black Ops 7 incarnations of Dr. Edward Richtofen (voiced by Nolan North), Nikolai Belinksi (voiced by Fred Tatasciore), and "Tank" Dempsey (voiced by Steve Blum), along with the debut of Nelson Lee as the voice of Takeo Masaki, now hailing from 16th-century feudal Japan.

The entire Black Ops 7 Zombies experience is a wild ride across the Dark Aether, with a full complement of maps planned across the post-launch seasons. Expect more Round-Based Maps, the second of which will drop during Season 1, as well as additional Survival Maps throughout the seasons.

Though the crew may have doubled, the whereabouts of support members are unknown, and they must explore an environment doing its level best to kill them all the time. This exploration occurs in unprecedented territory where the earthly rules of engagement do not apply, and now more than ever, staying together as a squad is the key to survival. Ashes of the Damned can best be described as an off world "Bermuda Triangle," where various earthly and celestial locations were transported and dropped into this place. Beginning with a twisted, otherworldly Janus Towers that once resided in Liberty Falls, there are six terrifying and surreal main locations to investigate, all linked together by treacherous and unforgiving roadways teeming with deadly threats.
