Treyarch shared a new teaser trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, and fans picked up on a few Gobblegum related clues.
BO6marks the return ofround-based zombiesfor the first time in four years. It will arrive on October 25 with two maps, Terminus and Liberty Falls, and it will also continue the Dark Aether narrative that started in CoD: Cold War.
In addition, Gobblegums make a return. This was a controversial feature inBlack Ops 3 Zombiesthat gave players special abilities such as instantly teleporting to a random location or having zombies chase you instead of your teammates.
Gobblegums drew criticism as the machine was expensive, forcing players to spend hours and in-game currency spinning to get the desired ability. Despite some skepticism, there is excitement around its return, and players learned a few Gobblegums that will be available in the latestBO6 teaser video.

Fans can’t wait to get their hands on the new Zombies experience for themselves.
“Finally Gobblegums have returned! Zombies is finally back,” one player responded.
In saying that, some players fear that Activision will go too far with making Gobblegums a micro-transaction.
“That’s all but guaranteed. Activision will go overboard with the monetization, I’m sure of it,” a second user added.
Whatever side you land on for Gobblegums coming back, anticipation for Zombies is at an all-time high. For more on BO6, check out ourpre-order guide.
