Merry CODMAS to all! Call of Duty’s winter holiday event season has arrived in Season One Reloaded, and it’s chock full of gifts for all players.
No matter what you play, CODMAS has a little of of something for everybody, including a collaboration with the Netflix show Squid Game. Here’s everything that’s coming in the free content update for Black Ops 6 multiplayer, BO6 Zombies, and Warzone, which goes live on Dec. 5 at 11am CT.
BO6 Season One Reloaded patch notes
Read on below for everything coming in the holiday-themed update for CoD, which will be the last major update until the end of January when Season One comes to an end and Season Two is set to begin.
Weapon changes
There are no weapon buffs or nerfs to speak of in the update, surprisingly. But there are some bans to guns in Ranked Play, as the Krig C, Model L, and XM4 are now banned to coincide with the CDL ruleset.
For the full list of global BO6 changes, check out the CoD website.
Three new weapons
Need more tools to dominate with? This update has you covered with three new weapons to use in all modes.
Maelstrom
- Shotgun, “Merry Mayhem” event reward.
- “Fully automatic shotgun. Good range and handling. High recoil and large hip spread.”
AMR Mod 4
- Sniper Rifle, “Archie’s Festival Frenzy” event reward.
- “Semi-auto sniper rifle. One-shot kill to torso, arms, hands, and upper legs. Very high recoil and slow rate of fire. You can steady your aim while ADSing.”
Cleaver
- Melee weapon, in-season event reward.
- “One-hit kill. Short-medium range. Medium attack speed.”
In-season event rewards also include new attachments, the three-round burst mods for the XM4 and Kompakt 92.
Three new maps
Whether you’re a fan of six-vs-six, two-vs-two Gunfight, or just plain old Nuketown vibes, this update has a bit of something for everyone.
- Hacienda: Medium-sized Core map for six-vs-six.
- This is a remaster of a Black Ops 4 multiplayer map.
- Racket: Small-sized Strike map for six-vs-six and two-vs-two.
- Three-lane map set in a vault full of treasures.

New Perk and Wildcard
Refresh your loadouts with a new Perk and Wildcard to change things up.
- New Perk – Shrapnel Radar
- “Blast damage dealt from area-of-effect Lethals, Tacticals and Field Upgrades mark the injured target on your minimap.”
- Unlocked as part of the “Merry Mayhem” event.
- New Wildcard – High Roller

- Unlocked in an event.
Limited-time modes and events
A couple of new modes to celebrate the holidays will be available after the update goes live.
- Ran-Snack: A holiday-themed twist on Ransack, where players capture and collect cookies instead of gold. Available at Season One Reloaded launch.
- Infectious Holiday: A holiday-themed twist on the Infected mode, coming in-season.
In both of these modes, when Nuketown Holiday is the map, snow piles can be found around the map to interact with for a snowball that can be thrown for a one-hit kill on enemies.
There will also be several limited time events full of rewards, including the above weapons. The events will all have specific limited time modes for each of BO6 multiplayer, Warzone, and Zombies.
Merry Mayhem (Dec. 5 to 19)

GobbleGum Mania (Dec. 5 to 19)
This Zombies-exclusive event rewards players for chewing GobbleGums, and has new items like cosmetics, and additional GobbleGums to use. It’s perfect for the new Zombies map, Citadelle des Morts.
