Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4 Zombies Mode Teased Again By Dev

Activision will finally pull back the curtain on Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 in just a few days, but in the meantime, developer Treyarch continues to drop hints about the game on social media. This time, Treyarch sent out a cryptic tweet that again seems to confirm Zombies mode will return in this year's Call of Duty.

The tweet, which you can see below, simply reads, "So it begins..." and is followed by "#Zombies." However, the most intriguing aspect of the tweet is the accompanying image, which shows what appears to be a zombie-like character putting on a mask, with the words "Mankind's reckoning will be its salvation" lining the bottom of the image.

This isn't the first we've heard about Zombies mode potentially returning in Black Ops 4. Earlier this week, the official E3 Twitter account apparently outed the mode in a tweet about an E3 Coliseum talk with Treyarch. "What's lurking around the corner of Treyarch's next Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Zombies experience? Come hear the history of Call of Duty Zombies from the creators themselves at E3Coliseum!" the tweet reads.

Activision and Treyarch have teased other features that could be returning in Black Ops 4. A couple of weeks ago, Treyarch tweeted an image of a screen that simply says "10/10," suggesting it may bring back the popular Pick 10 system. It also hinted that perks and scorestreaks will remain in the game.

Outside of that, there's little that we know about Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. Activision has confirmed that the game will release for PS4, Xbox One, and PC on October 12--nearly a full month earlier than Call of Duty games typically launch. We'll get our first look at the game next week when Activision hosts the Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Community Reveal Event. That takes place on Thursday, May 17, at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET.
