Black Ops 7’s final Zombies map arrives with big-ass spiders a day prior to MW4’s beta
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 will receive its final round-based Zombies map, Rex Infernus, on 20 August, concluding the game’s Zombies storyline. The release matters because Modern Warfare 4 is expected to focus on DMZ rather than Zombies, potentially leaving the mode without new maps for some time.
Rex Infernus launches with the Season Five Reloaded update at 11am CT and includes a main quest centred on stopping the Warden and saving reality. It introduces spider-like Deathspinners and the Web Mother, while also bringing back the Widow’s Wine perk and adding ultra-rarity weapons such as the TR2 marksman rifle and Olympia shotgun to the Mystery Box; MW4’s beta begins the following day, 21 August.
In short
- Black Ops 7’s final Zombies map launches on 20 August.
- Rex Infernus adds hostile spider enemies and a new quest.
- MW4’s beta begins one day after the update.
Explained simply
Call of Duty is a series of military action games published by Activision. Black Ops and Modern Warfare are separate strands within the series, and Zombies is a cooperative mode in which players fight waves of enemies and follow a story across different maps.
In Black Ops 7, the Zombies story has unfolded through round-based maps, where players face increasingly difficult waves while completing objectives. Rex Infernus is part of that story and features characters and enemies including the Warden and the Web Mother.
The mode’s future matters to players who follow its continuing story and seek new maps. Modern Warfare 4 is expected to focus on DMZ, a different mode, so it may be a while before another Zombies map appears.
