A new Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Zombies trailer has arrived, and Treyarch’s latest is looking like an over-the-top blast. Black Ops 4 resets the increasingly-convoluted Zombies timeline, telling a fresh story with a bit of an Assassin’s Creed flavor. Four new characters (Bruno, Diego, Shaw, and Charlotte) travel to different time periods and slaughter zombies as they try to take down a sinister cult. We’re also getting a revamped version of Blood of the Dead featuring the original Zombies crew. Check out the new Zombies trailer and descriptions of the launch maps Voyage of Despair, IX, and Blood of the Dead, below.

Voyage of Despair
What came first, the iceberg or the Zombies? (Spoiler alert: it was the Zombies.) It’s 1912. Our heroes are aboard the maiden voyage of the RMS Titanic, on a quest to steal a precious artifact. However, their mission will not be easy – as a sinister, secret adversary is also aboard, hellbent on utter destruction. Welcome to Voyage of Despair, an all-new Zombies experience that rewrites history with the help of the Undead. Our new heroes must band together to outlast the Zombies and survive.
IX
Gladiators. And Zombies. This is IX, which transports our new cast of characters to the ancient Roman Colosseum, where an evil force pits Gladiators against Zombies with our heroes thrown in the mix. The secrets behind IX are yet to be revealed – but, expect a fight for total survival while and discovering the mysteries hidden in ancient Rome.
Blood of the Dead
The motley Primis crew, known as the Origins characters – Takeo, Richtofen, Dempsey and Nikolai – make an epic return in Blood of the Dead. Blood of the Dead continues the Aetherstory, still enjoyed by the Zombies community in Black Ops 3. The Origins characters have enlivened the Zombies community as they have faced dragons, giant robots and unimaginable monsters. “Blood of the Dead” adds to an already rich Zombies history and packs in the familiar secrets and struggle for survival that the Zombies community’s come to love.
