New Feature in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 to Track Challenges

Summary

• Treyarch confirms it is working on adding a feature to allow Black Ops 6 players to track challenges in the game's UI.
• Challenge tracking was available in 2023's Modern Warfare 3, but did not carry over to Black Ops 6.
• A release date for the feature is currently unknown, but a major content update is coming later this month.

Treyarch Studios, the developers behind Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, have announced exciting news for fans: they're actively working to reintroduce the ability to track challenges directly within the game's user interface (UI). This much-requested feature, which was a fan favorite in 2023's Modern Warfare 3, unfortunately didn't make it into the initial release of Black Ops 6. However, hope is on the horizon as Treyarch has confirmed that this feature is in development, with no specific release date announced yet. Fans can look forward to its potential inclusion in the upcoming Season 2 update, slated for later this month.

On January 9, Treyarch rolled out a comprehensive update for Black Ops 6, enhancing both Multiplayer and Zombies modes. This patch included several UI and audio bug fixes, along with increased XP rewards for the newly introduced Red Light, Green Light game mode in Multiplayer. Zombies mode received significant attention as well, with Treyarch reversing a controversial change from a January 3 update. The backlash from the Zombies community led to the removal of extended times between rounds and the delay in zombie spawning after five looped rounds in Directed Mode.

Treyarch Confirms New Black Ops 6 Feature in Development

Although not detailed in the latest patch notes, Treyarch responded to a fan's request on Twitter, confirming that the challenge tracking feature is "currently in the works." This feature was greatly appreciated in Modern Warfare 3, and its absence in Black Ops 6, despite both games being part of the Call of Duty HQ app, left many fans disappointed.

The ability to track challenges in-game is set to revolutionize the experience for players aiming to unlock Black Ops 6's coveted Mastery camos. Once implemented, players will be able to select a specific challenge, such as headshot camos for various weapons, and monitor their progress live through the in-game UI. This real-time tracking will eliminate the need to wait until the end of a match to check progress.

In another exciting development, Treyarch also confirmed they are working on a significant update for Black Ops 6 Zombies. Responding to a fan's suggestion on Twitter, Treyarch stated that they are developing the ability to have separate HUD settings for Multiplayer and Zombies. This feature will allow players to switch between modes without constantly adjusting their HUD settings, enhancing the overall gaming experience.
