Zombies will return in Call of Duty: Black Ops IIII with Blood of the Dead and a special Mystery Box Edition.

What’s in the box?! Why, it’s a br꧂and new episode of the famous Call of Duty: Zombies storyline. We already knew that CoD would continue the wildly p🙈opular game mode in the fourth installment oꦚf the Black Ops franchise (which is actually the 15th installmဣent of the Call of Duty franchise as a whole) but now we have more🌠 details as to what’s actually going on.

Blood of the Dead will not take place following the events of Black Ops 3: Zombies, and instead take place in the past. An old foe will try and lu🌳re the original Zombies heroes to Alca♌traz and trap them there (yeah, trapping someone in a prison is pretty on the nose). "Tank" Dempsey, Nikolai Beli🤡nski, Takeo Masaki, and Edward Richtofen will have to find some way to escape and save their timeline in order to save the world, which they did in the future in the previous game.

Man, messed up timelines are messed up.

The latest Zombies CoD will launch with the game and include three✨ episodes: IX, Voyage of Despair, and Blood of the Dead, and will come wi💃th a brand new cast of characters to include with the previous game’s cast of cha🅷racters.

In keeping with the whole Z♚ombies theme, a special edition Mystery Box will also be availab🤡le for those who have more love for zombies than the whole modern sci-fi shoot ‘em up genre.

Most prominently, the Mystery Box comes with a decorative box that lights up and makes creepy zombie sounds when you open it. On the inside comes a special edition copy of the game (obv) as well as a whole bunch♛ of goodies including a Zombies Heroes FiGPiNs (featuring Scarlett Rhodes, Bruno Delacroix, Diego Necalli, and Stanton Shaw), 1,0ꦿ00 piece jigsaw puzzle, Dark Horse Comics Zombies Issue #1, a Zombies-themed Popsocket (which is like a cell phone 🍸stand, but weirder), a bunch of multiplayer icons, and the Black Ops Pass which includes four new Zombies chapters (onꦯce they’re made of course), 12 multiplayer maps, and four exclusive Battle Royale-mode characters.

There’s also something called “additional unspecified bonus content”, whatever 𒉰t🐟hat is.

Call of Duty: Black Ops IIII is set to release worldwide on October 12th.
