Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Reveals New Weapons and Operators Coming in Season 1

Key Takeaways

  • Black Ops 6 Season 1 brings new weapons and operators at launch, with major mid-season updates.
  • Players can expect new content additions like maps, weapons, and operators, along with bug fixes.
  • Five more weapons, including melee options and special secondary firearms, will be added in-season.

As a seasoned Call of Duty: Black Ops veteran with over a decade of gaming under my belt, I can hardly contain my excitement for Season 1 of Black Ops 6! The prospect of new weapons and operators, especially the Krig C Assault Rifle and Saug SMG, has me itching to jump back into the fray. The Goliath and Sevati “Sev” Dumas operators are just the cherry on top.

In the debut of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’s Season 1, Activision and Treyarch unveiled an array of fresh weapons and characters joining the fray. Among them are those readily accessible at the start of the season. Similar to past seasons in the series, Season 1 for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will receive a significant mid-season overhaul.

In simple terms, the first season of Black Ops 6 is set to debut on Thursday, November 14. This season promises fresh multiplayer and Zombies content all through its duration. The Season 1 update includes new maps, weapons, operators, special events within the game, as well as bug fixes and balance changes. As we get closer to the launch of Season 1, developers of Black Ops 6 have shared detailed insights about the upcoming weapons and operators that players will be incorporating into their loadouts soon.

In the debut of Black Ops 6 Season 1, players will have an opportunity to acquire two fresh weapons – the Krig C Assault Rifle and Saug SMG – as rewards from Battle Pass Page 3 HVT Tier. Additionally, the new operators Goliath and Sevati “Sev” Dumas will be available at the start of the season. As per Treyarch’s blog post, the Krig C features average handling with a high damage output and predictable recoil, making it an effective and reliable primary weapon when enhanced with additional attachments. Conversely, the new Saug SMG boasts excellent mobility and handling combined with a rapid fire rate. However, one of the drawbacks of the Saug SMG is its significant recoil, which can be reduced by applying attachments to boost stability and accuracy. Players can experiment with these new weapons while also trying out operators Goliath and Sev, who are obtainable by upgrading to BlackCell or purchasing the Season 1 Battle Pass.

Treyarch Reveals New Weapons and Operators Coming in Black Ops 6 Season 1

  • Launch:
    • Krig C assault rifle (Battle Pass)
    • Saug SMG (Battle Pass)
    • Goliath operator (BlackCell)
    • Sevati “Sev” Dumas operator (Battle Pass)
  • In-season:
    • Power Drill melee weapon (event reward)
    • Cleaver melee weapon (event reward)
    • Sirin 9mm special secondary weapon (event reward)
    • The Replacer operator (store bundle)
    • Competitor CDL Home and Away operators (store bundle)
  • Mid-season:
    • Maelstrom shotgun (event reward)
    • AMR Mod 4 sniper rifle (event reward)

During the season, five additional weapons will be presented as event rewards, among them are two new melee weapons – Power Drill and Cleaver. Additionally, “Black Ops 6” players can acquire the Maelstrom shotgun, AMR Mod 4 sniper rifle, and Sirin 9mm secondary weapon through in-game events during Season 1. The Maelstrom shotgun may not be as powerful as others of its kind, but its rapid-fire full-auto feature makes it a formidable choice for close combat. The AMR Mod 4 is the strongest semi-automatic sniper rifle in its class, capable of delivering one-shot kills to opponents’ upper bodies, although it has a slow aiming speed and high recoil.

During the mid-season update launch, both the Maelstrom and AMR Mod 4 will become accessible. On the other hand, the Sirin 9mm is an in-game reward from the current event, placed within the newly introduced “special” secondary weapon category. Unlike other secondary weapons in Black Ops 6, the Sirin 9mm stands out due to its unique foldable design and SMG-like traits, such as a consistent full-auto firing speed.

According to the Black Ops 6 Season 1 plan, the Replacer and Competitor CDL Home and Away operators are expected to hit store bundles following the start of the season. Treyarch hasn’t disclosed exact release dates for most of the upcoming weapons and operators yet, but they will probably provide additional information and patch notes once the new content is prepared for rollout.
