Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Devs Innovate with Challenge Tracker

Treyarch is developing a highly anticipated in-game challenge tracker for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. This feature, absent from the game's launch but present in 2023's Modern Warfare 3, is currently under development. While no release date has been announced, its arrival is expected soon, potentially coinciding with the upcoming Season 2 content drop later this month.

A recent January 9th update addressed various bug fixes in Black Ops 6's multiplayer and zombies modes, including UI and audio improvements, and a boost to XP rewards in the Red Light, Green Light mode. Significantly, Treyarch reversed a controversial Zombies change from the January 3rd update, removing extended round times and zombie spawn delays in Directed Mode following community feedback.

Challenge Tracking Feature Confirmed

Treyarch confirmed the challenge tracker's development via Twitter, responding directly to a fan request. The feature's absence was a source of significant player disappointment, especially given its presence in the related Modern Warfare 3. The in-game tracker will likely mirror Modern Warfare 3's functionality, allowing players to monitor progress towards challenge completion, such as Mastery camos, in real-time.

Additional Improvements on the Horizon

Beyond the challenge tracker, Treyarch also confirmed the development of separate HUD settings for Multiplayer and Zombies modes, addressing another player concern. This will eliminate the need for constant HUD adjustments when switching between game modes. These upcoming updates promise a significantly enhanced Black Ops 6 experience for players.
