Treyarch is developing a highly anticipated in-game challenge tracker for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. This feature, absent at launch despite its presence in Modern Warfare 3, is currently under development. While a release date remains unannounced, its arrival is expected soon, possibly coinciding with the upcoming Season 2 content drop later this month.
A recent January 9th update addressed various bug fixes across Multiplayer and Zombies modes, including UI and audio improvements, and a Multiplayer XP boost for the Red Light, Green Light mode. Significantly, Treyarch reversed a controversial Zombies change from January 3rd, restoring the original round timing and zombie spawn mechanics in Directed Mode after player feedback.
Challenge Tracking Feature Confirmed
Treyarch confirmed the challenge tracker's development via Twitter, responding directly to a player inquiry. The feature's absence was a point of frustration for many players, especially those pursuing Mastery camos. The anticipated functionality mirrors Modern Warfare 3's system, providing real-time challenge progress updates within the game's UI.
Additional Improvements on the Horizon
Beyond the challenge tracker, Treyarch also confirmed work on a separate HUD setting for Multiplayer and Zombies modes, addressing player requests for mode-specific HUD customization. This enhancement is also "in the works." These upcoming updates promise a significantly improved Black Ops 6 experience for players.
