Since its launch, fans of the Zombies mode in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 have been checking every corner and hiding place in the two available maps, discovering hidden weapons and other items that most players do not yet know about.
However, with the upcoming Citadelle des Morts map coming out on December 5, some players have taken unusual steps to get ahead of their online competition and master the upcoming map and its challenges.
In a Dexerto post, UK-based YouTuber MrRoflWaffles, who specializes in Zombies content, visited the Cité de Carcassonne in France, which appears to be the inspiration for the French-themed Citadelle des Morts zombie map, which shows images pointing to the recreated location on the next zombie map. This planned trip was a spontaneous decision, as he stated on his social media the day before his visit.
So far, not much is known about the Citadelle des Morts map; Other than that, it will continue the narrative beats of Terminus and Liberty Falls, the two current Zombies maps available now in Black Ops 6. Citadelle des Morts will be another open map filled with tons of zombies and unlockable weapons and equipment to find, as well as some strange narrative encounters that continue the Dark Aether story established by previous games that is surprisingly complex in its story that attempts to justify why zombies persist in the CoD universe.

Since the mode's debut in 2008's Call of Duty: World at War, Zombies mode has gained a strong following that has secured it as a regular element of the COD experience alongside campaign and multiplayer modes. What started out as a basic survival mode where you fight hordes of undead and unlock new weapons, more recent entries have seen the mode evolve into an incredibly over-the-top, slapstick arcade-style survival game where you win power-ups and find easter eggs. It remains a fan-favorite activity for many players, even those who have no idea what's going on with the zombie story.
The Citadelle des Morts map is the first major update coming to Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's Zombies mode, which is currently in its first season of post-launch content.
