Black Ops 6 Zombies Season 2 Reloaded patch notes: Directed Mode & Cowabunga Cranked
Black Ops 6 Season 2 Reloaded keeps the momentum rolling by introducing Directed Mode, a new limited-time mode, and more.
Treyarch pulled out all the stops at the start ofSeason 2by introducing The Tomb map, bringing back an iconic Wonder Weapon and a Perk for the first time since Black Ops 4, but it didn’t all land.

Fans had mixed reactions to the new map, including themain story easter egg, which usually is the most exciting part.
In addition, some fans believe the“ship has sailed in the wrong direction”because Zombies doesn’t have the same feel as previous titles that made the mode so popular to begin with. Let’s see if Season 2 Reloaded can turn the public sentiment around.

When does Black Ops 6 Season 2 Reloaded start?
Black Ops 6 Season 2 Reloaded arrives onThursday, February 20.
Directed Mode
Treyarch introduced Directed Mode to guide new or casual players through the main story. There are specific instructions about completing every task, and there is a round cap of 15, so the action doesn’t get too hectic.
However, some players use the mode to grind Zombies camos because they don’t need to exfil after reaching Round 15, meaning you’re able to stay in the match and farm easy eliminations without getting overwhelmed by the number of enemies in later rounds.

The Tomb adds Directed Mode in Season 2 Reloaded.
Cowabunga Cranked explained
Cowabunga Cranked is a new limited-time game mode featured on Terminus, Liberty Falls, Citadelle des Morts, and The Tomb. Eliminating a zombie triggers the Cranked timer, and failing to eliminate a zombie before the timer hits zero causes you to explode.

The Cranked timer shrinks in later rounds, so there are Pizza power-ups to help players stay alive.
Donny’s [sic] Time Stopper Field upgrades pause the Cranked timer for a full minute. Deploying as a Ninja Turtle Operator gains 50% reduced damage from behind, and playing as Splinter increases the chance for a Slice-O-Pie to drop from eliminated enemies.
Each map will feature a TMNT version of each map’s main quest easter egg and there is a completion calling card for finishing all of them.
