The recent update for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 introduces a collaboration with Netflix’s Squid Game, bringing a variety of new content and features to the game. Here’s a breakdown of what’s included:
New Game Modes:
- Red Light, Green Light: Inspired by the iconic game from the series, players participate in rounds where movement is dictated by “Green Light” and “Red Light” commands. Moving during a “Red Light” results in elimination. GameSpot
- Pentathlon: A series of multiplayer modes including Domination, Kill Confirmed, Hardpoint, and two new variants:
- Piggy Bank Team Deathmatch: Eliminations contribute to a central “Mega Piggy Bank.” Mid-match, the bank drops, and teams fight to claim the accumulated score.
- Roulette: Players can acquire a powerful handgun capable of one-shot eliminations, but each shot carries the risk of the weapon exploding, causing self-elimination. GameSpot
Event Pass:
A new Squid Game Event Pass is available, offering 20 rewards, including:
- Free Rewards:
- Player 006 Niran Skin
- Tic-Tac-Die Loading Screen
- Squid Game Emblem
- Cleaver Melee Weapon
- Premium Rewards:

The premium pass is available for 1,100 COD Points.
Gameplay Enhancements:
- Movement: Mantle speeds have been increased, and players can now open and close doors while sprinting.
- Weapons: Introduction of the Cleaver melee weapon, obtainable through event rewards.
- Scorestreaks:
- RC-XD: Maximum damage slightly reduced.
- Sentry Turret: Increased fire rate.
- Care Packages: Reduced frequency of containing the Scout Pulse Scorestreak. GameSpot
Zombies Mode:
- Dead Light, Green Light: Players aim to eliminate zombies during “Green Light” phases. Moving during a “Red Light” results in essence being drained, and “Dead Light” phases introduce increasingly challenging zombie waves. GameSpot
Warzone Integration:
- A Squid Game mode has been added to the Urzikstan map, featuring rotating challenges where teams are eliminated each round until one remains. Additionally, “Red Light, Green Light” can be triggered between rounds. GameSpot
