BO7 Season 1 roadmap: Standoff, Meltdown, Maddox, more content

Black Ops 7 Season 1 is shaping up to be “the biggest season we have ever done in franchise history,” according to Treyarch.

In the studio’s latest Dev Talk, the developers revealed new details about the BO7 Season 1 roadmap, including some of the upcoming maps, modes, and weapons for both Multiplayer and Zombies. Although there are still a few weeks left before the game’s official release on Nov. 14, Treyarch is already building up the hype for what promises to be the most massive post-launch content drop in Call of Duty history.

We break down all the new maps, modes, weapons, and other content confirmed for Black Ops 7 Season 1 so far.

Treyarch confirmed that seven new weapons will arrive throughout Season 1, headlined by the Maddox, a classic Black Ops 4 rifle making its return.

  • Maddox
  • Crossbow
  • Ballistic Knife
  • More weapons, alongside the new Dead Eye Drone scorestreak

Zombies maps and modes

BO7 Zombies players have plenty to look forward to, with three new maps and limited-time modes on the way.

  • Astra Malorum (Round-based map)
  • Exit 115 (Survival map)
  • Zarya Cosmodrome (Survival map, arriving midseason)
  • Multiple holiday limited-time modes

Zombies field upgrades and ammo mods

Returning field upgrades and ammo mods will also arrive to shake up your undead-slaying experience.

  • Mister Peeks field upgrade
  • Frost Blast field upgrade
  • Light Mend ammo mod
  • Other upgrades featured in Black Ops 6

Black Ops 7 Season 1 release date

As of now, Activision hasn’t confirmed the exact BO7 Season 1 release date. However, based on the series’ release patterns, the first major season typically launches around a month after release. Activision also avoids major updates too close to the holidays, allowing developers time to recharge before the new year.

Given that Black Ops 7 arrives on Nov. 14, you can expect Season 1 to go live sometime in early to mid-December. For now, this timeline remains unconfirmed, but we’ll update this article as soon as Activision announces the official date.
