Treyarch has posted a new Reddit post describing what’s coming to Black Ops 4 soon, including some changes to Black Market.

Here’s the details:

Halloween is almost upon us, and that means it’s time to stalk your enemies as the undead! This week, we’re bringing Infected: Final Stand to MP and Pandemic to Blackout to celebrate the spookiest time of the year. If you didn’t get a chance to play these creepy limited-time modes during Operation Apocalypse Z, check out the Activision Games Blog for all the tips and tricks you’ll need to dominate the living (and the undead).

Zombies 2X Nebulium Plasma + Laboratory Offers Continue

2X Nebulium Plasma continues in Zombies this week along with the Tungsten Tripler and Titanium Treble offers in the Laboratory through 10AM Nov. 1st! Get out there, cook up some Elixirs, and show us how many rounds you can last.

Note: We’re aware of an unintentional change in today’s playlist update that has temporarily removed “Tag der Toten” from the Classic and Rush playlists. We’ll have it back up and running in those modes soon, and you can still play the map in Public or Custom Mutations in the meantime. Thanks for your patience!Our Next Major Game Update Arrives Nov. 5th

• Weapon tuning for the AN-94 and Echohawk Dual Bore in Multiplayer

Ongoing Black Ops 4 Support

You’ve also been asking about what comes next. Just like with Black Ops III, we’ll be keeping things fresh going forward. Here’s the plan:

• MULTIPLAYER: We know tons of our players love jumping into Nuketown every chance they get, so we’re making the Nuketown playlist permanent starting Nov. 5th! Each week’s showcased Featured Playlist will also grant 2XP on all platforms, so you’ll be able to rank up twice as fast whenever you’d like going forward. We’re bringing a massive list of 2XP Featured Playlists into rotation, and we’ll also be scheduling plenty of special 2X multiplier events and Quad Feeds throughout the year.
• BLACKOUT: We’re planning to give players access to more limited-time modes on a frequent basis in our new LTM Moshpits as part of a streamlined playlist interface to keep wait times low between matches. Keep an eye out for more 2X Merit events down the line to help you rise through the Echelons.
• ZOMBIES: We’ll be adding a huge list of quality-of-life improvements and bug fixes across multiple maps, as well as support for the newest weaponry in the Mystery Box and Armory. We’re also officially making the Titanium Treble offer permanent in the Laboratory to give everyone more ways to redeem their Nebulium Plasma rewards.
• BLACK MARKET: Shortly after our Nov. 5th update, we’ll be introducing completely new ways to earn Black Market rewards just by playing the game. Stay tuned for a full blog in the coming days with all the intel on what’s changing.
