It’s fun, but it tastes better than an onion.” “It’s an onion that keeps having layers to it. This time around, thugh, players want to prioritize what kind of equipment they bring along depending on the objectives they choose to tackle. In Vanguard, you’ll see some of the same Outbreak mechanics return, such as being able to warp to new locales. The inception of objective-based gameplay can be seen in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War‘s Outbreak mode, which gave players an open world, allowing them to teleport to various areas after completing certain tasks.
And then within Stalingrad, instead of killing zombies, earning essence, and buying doors, it’s the completion of these different objectives that starts to earn you more paths to the map, and more things to interact with over the course of a single match.” “So these objectives that you teleport to take place in different arenas that are much different locations than the hubs on Stalingrad. “In this experience, Der Anfang, starting in Stalingrad, we use this objective gameplay loop to reenvision the idea of opening a map,” Locke tells Digital Trends. Objectives will play a much larger role this time around, rather than simply having players try to survive against a horde of zombies for as long as possible. One of the highlights of Der Anfang is the way it will streamline the familiar Zombies gameplay, giving more direction to help new players learn the ropes. Ahead of its release, I spoke with Treyarch Associate Director of Design Gavin Locke, Senior Writer Tony Bedard, and Lead Writer Craig Houston about what to expect from the upcoming Zombies experience.ĭer Anfang - which translates to “The Beginning” in German - is the new Zombies experience in Vanguard.
Treyarch is once again leading the charge on Zombies development after having worked on 2020’s Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. Zombies makes its triumphant return in Call of Duty: Vanguard, and although it aims to be a familiar experience, developer Treyarch is reenvisioning the way the mode works, with a slew of additions that make it feel fresh. What started as a weird little one-off mode has grown to explosive new heights thanks to its gratifying gameplay loop that ropes players in. Since then, the Zombies mode has expanded and become much more complicated, full of memorable characters, a streamlined objective system, and much more to do. Something about being able to take a break from the stone-faced shooting to battle an infinite onslaught of zombies (with the use of your alien Ray Gun) in Call of Duty: World at War in 2008 was refreshing. It added silly, arcade-style horror gameplay to break up the seriousness of a gritty war game. In many ways, Zombies redefined the Call of Duty series.
