Prepare for frightening thrills, the shambling undead, squad hunts to take down grotesque monsters, and those infamous jump-scares as The Haunting returns! The Haunting event brings Halloween-themed Maps, Modes, Events and more across both games.

The Haunting: Soul Capture Event

Available across Modern Warfare II and Call of Duty: Warzone, the Soul Capture Event is an enhanced and fear-inducing variation on the popular Trophy Hunt Event from Season 03. Available across all game modes, any time a Player is eliminated, they leave a Soul behind. Collect these Souls, which are automatically added to your total in all game modes (meaning there’s no need to visit a Buy Station in Call of Duty: Warzone or DMZ this time), and trade them for items shown in the Events Tab.

Event Rewards:

• Gone Batty (Weapon Sticker)

• Skullified (Calling Card)

• Bit Corny (Charm)

• Creature Copter (Vehicle Skin)

• Alien Death Ray (Weapon Blueprint)

• Join Me (Loading Screen)

• Bad Luck? (Charm)

• Carved Up (Weapon Sticker)

• Violent End (Weapon Blueprint)

• XP Tokens

• Tier Skips

• And more coming throughout The Haunting

The Haunting: Daily Login Rewards

As the creeping terror contained within The Haunting infiltrates Modern Warfare II and Call of Duty: Warzone, expect to receive a variety of free, limited-time cosmetic items simply by logging into the game as The Haunting progresses.

Daily Login Rewards:

• Happy Pumpkin (Charm)

EQUIPMENT

Possessed Equipment: Did You Hear That? Did You See That?

It seems some of your Loadout equipment may have become possessed. Operators are to take additional care when utilizing the following items:

• Sound Veil Scream (Field Upgrade): For those stepping into the sound wave of the Suppression Mine, prepare for an hallucinatory audio assault as the air fills with the screams of the dead!

• Decoy Grenade (Tactical): Reports of inhuman and monstrous sounds peppered with gunfire make this more than just an audio hallucination.

DOWNLOADS

The Season 06 Reloaded update download file size will be larger than our normal seasonal updates to prepare COD HQ, the game launcher for Call of Duty going forward, for remaining seasonal content and the launch of Modern Warfare III. Note: PC users will also require additional space on their hard drive for the patch copying process; this is only temporary space that is reclaimed upon completion of the patch installation and is not an additional download.

MULTIPLAYER

PLAYLIST

A Haunting Twist on Classic Modes

Along with changes to Maps, The Haunting also brings Halloween twists to a select number of modes. While the overall objectives may be the same, try not to get scared out of your wits while completing them.

• Haunting Domination

  • Own all the control points on the map as usual. However, in this version of Domination, expect a Scarecrow to act as a marker for each flag.

• Haunting Kill Confirmed & Grind

  • Instead of Dog Tags, collect skulls in Grind and Kill Confirmed.

• Trick or Treat

  • Capture and hold the Drop Zone to earn points for your team, but take care while opening any crates . . .  who knows what might jump out at you!

• Zombies Infected

  • Zombies swarm to Infected. Players who become infected will appear as The Haunting–themed Zombies.

     

MAPS

Haunting-Themed Maps

The Halloween spirit is alive and well with two Haunting map updates: El Asilo celebrates Día de Muertos, while Embassy becomes the site of a devastating zombie attack.

El Asilo

• Larger-than-life calaveras stand outside the asylum, looking over the festivities of Día de Muertos. Other painted and neon skulls decorate the landscape alongside marigolds, candles, and altars that honor lost loved ones.

Embassy

• Diplomacy has broken down: Conduct an evening operation on Embassy following a gruesome zombie attack. The message “Send Help” hangs suspended from the rooftop, but it’s far too late . . . the zombie attack has already come and gone, leaving structural havoc and corporeal damage in its wake.

   

WARZONE

BATTLE ROYALE, RESURGENCE, PLUNDER, LOCKDOWN

EVENTS

The Haunting Limited-Time Event

• Operation Nightmare is a GO: Investigate eldritch anomalies across the map, and face a host of monstrous targets as you gradually clear a Bounty board of otherworldly terrors!
  • The Butcher is looking for fresh meat across Al Mazrah and Vondead! This monstrosity will drop a unique reward which can be claimed in Diablo IV. Check the Call of Duty website later today for more information on how to redeem.

• Welcome to Vondead: A demonic incantation unleashed an uncontained zombie outbreak across Vondel. The undead have ravaged the streets under a blood red moon. Shocking secrets are waiting to be discovered!
  

• Zombie Royale is back! Tear into this infamous limited-time mode, with all-new innovations but the same chaotic premise — return to battle as a fast-moving Zombie. Survive, or get eaten!

• Lockdown returns, otherworldly loot, and events: Head to Vondead for more Lockdown action, gather Souls for in-game rewards, and prepare for plenty of jump scares, eldritch equipment, and much more.

   

MAPS

  • Players that die as a zombie are eliminated from the match - unless they wait for the infestation meter to return all spectators to the match as a zombie

  • The last living Player(s) wins

Vondead Lockdown

• Players are now able to play Lockdown under an ominous moonlit, night-time variant of Vondel!
