Activision and Treyarch have rolled out a fresh update for the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 beta, introducing the new Face Off 6v6 game mode along with two brand-new Strike maps. At present, the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 beta is accessible to Xfinity Rewards members and those who have pre-purchased the game, but it won’t be long before everyone can join in.

The early access beta for Black Ops 6 kicked off on August 30, two days after the Call of Duty NEXT event. During this beta, gamers can familiarize themselves with the game’s Omnimovement system in a specialized training area, engage in a restricted multiplayer playlist, and advance up to level 20 during the initial weekend. Throughout the beta’s run, Treyarch will introduce some playlist updates, ensuring its development continues.

As a gamer diving into the world of Black Ops 6, I’m thrilled to announce that the latest beta update is now active! This means I can jump right into the Face Off 6v6 mode and battle it out on the Pit and Gala 6v6 Strike maps. In the Face Off mode, it’s a traditional Team Deathmatch, but with no Scorestreaks to worry about! During the initial weekend of the beta test, I can engage in Face Off Team Deathmatch and Face Off Kill Confirmed matches. Since it’s a 6v6 mode, I’ll be able to join games taking place on the Pit and Gala maps in Black Ops 6. Can’t wait to get started!

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Beta Playlist Update Adds Face Off and Two Strike Maps

  • Face Off includes standard 6v6 game modes with scorestreaks disabled
    • Update adds Face Off Team Deathmatch and Face Off Kill Confirmed
  • Pit and Gala 6v6 maps

1. The “Pit” game level is situated within a compact area of a Russian mine tunnel that extends through a cavern. The ventilation channel above the cave serves as the sole source of natural light for the Pit map. Upon respawning in Black Ops 6, players can follow the path of upturned mine carts to reach the heart of the map. In contrast, the new “Gala” level is positioned inside a structure that previously held an annual charity event, featuring American flags hanging from the ceiling. Similar in size to Pit, Gala promises intense firefights as players make their way towards the central lounge area. The Stakeout map from the initial weekend concludes the collection of eight maps available in the Black Ops 6 beta, along with Pit and Gala.

During the second weekend (September 4-9) of the Black Ops 6 beta, there’s a plan for another update. This beta phase will be available across all platforms. The second weekend will introduce a Face Off version of Kill Order mode and bring back the popular Gunfight mode. Players participating in weekend two can keep playing and advancing to unlock special rewards exclusive to Black Ops 6, such as “The Redactor” weapon blueprint and the “Earning Stripes” emblem. These rewards will be accessible at the game’s launch on October 25.
