The Infected mode in Call of Duty Black Ops 6<\/em> is the perfect playlist addition Treyarch and Activision could have made during the Halloween festivities.<\/p>

Zombies have been a fantastic introduction so far, and both Liberty Falls and Terminus<\/a> have seen plenty of action over the opening week. For the first time, you can enjoy a mode that’s a mix of classic multiplayer and zombies. Let’s check out how it works and how you can play this fun playlist.<\/p>

How does the Infected mode work in Call of Duty Black Ops 6<\/h2><\/iframe>

The Infected mode is Black Ops 6<\/a><\/em>‘s own adaptation of one bad apple bringing down the rest (no, not literally). A game begins with any one player being designated as the Infected. The remaining players are all grouped as Survivors. The opening distribution of a team takes place after the “Infection Occurs” timer reaches its countdown and is purely random.<\/p>

The Infected aim to attack and infect the survivors, while the Survivors must avoid the attacks at all costs. At the end of a round, the group with the most members will be declared the winner.<\/p>

Can you use weapons in the Infected mode in Black Ops 6<\/h2>

Whether you’re an Infected or a Survivor, you’ll have weapons to carry out your work. There’s a slight difference, as an Infected can only use Melee weapons to hit a Survivor. When an Infected player hits a Survivor, they will become an Infected.<\/p>

Since the Infected don’t have the luxury of range, they will have a second chance if hit by a Survivor. This can happen only once in a specific round and creates a unique challenge for the hunter and its prey.<\/p>

If you’re enjoying the Infected mode, there’s more coming very soon. The Nuketown map will make its way later today, on November 1, followed by the introduction of Season 1<\/a> on November 14, along with the integration of Warzone into Black Ops 6<\/em>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
