Everything we know about the BO6 Zombies Shattered Veil map so far
The Shattered Veil takes place in a mansion, hence why it was originally given this title. A recent announcement from theCoDPodindicates that the Shattered Veil will be“bigger than the Tomb and Liberty Falls.”The sizing will relatively matchCitadelle des Morts, which is a pretty extensive map compared to others. Previously, the first teaser shows this building covered in black smoke, with an outside setting similar to Citadelle des Morts’ Town Square. The post teases, “Personal log. Edward Richtofen recording,” suggesting he may finally be a playable character.

Considering that Richtofen has been mentioned in this post, his creation, the Wunderwaffe DG-2, could be the next Wonder Weapon. BeforeBlack Ops 6was released, we saw Edward holding this device in theLiberty Falls trailer, and now it seems like it’ll be available in the Shattered Veil. Nevertheless, there’s still potential for other Wonder Weapons to appear, whether an elemental staff or an entirely new tool.
AnotherBO6 Zombiesteaser goes inside the building, displaying a painting of a mysterious man. Many fans believe this person in question is tied toBlack Ops 4’sThe Order, as his clothing relatively matches the characters from this game. The Order was known for using Sentinel Artifacts, which is also a part ofBO6’sThe Tomb. With these two hints, the Order may make a return, spreading chaos inZombiesonce more.
In recent news, we got a new Season 03Zombiestrailer that takes us inside the mansion. Tworeturning Wonder Weaponshave been confirmed, bringing back the fan-favorite Ray Gun Mark 2 and Wunderwaffe DG-2. The Double Tap Perk Cola has also come back for more, where players can unleash numerous bullets in a single shot.
There are a few sneak peeks into each Shattered Veil room, including an entrance with a dinosaur skeleton at the center and an elevator filled with zombies. I wouldn’t be surprised if some Easter Eggs were hidden there, too, but we’ll have to see what it has in store for its April 2 debut.
