Followers are discussing whether or not or not the Shattered Veil map will obtain an intro cinematic after The Tomb dropped with out one in Black Ops 6 Zombies.
Name of Responsibility: Black Ops 6 Season 3 arrives subsequent week, on April 3, and the principle headline of the replace is Verdansk’s return to Warzone.
Nonetheless, Zombies followers even have lots to stay up for, with a brand-new round-based expertise arriving alongside the brand new season.
We’ve already had loads of new Shattered Veil screenshots arrive for Black Ops 6 Zombies – however will the upcoming map truly obtain a cinematic trailer this time?
Shattered Veil’s Intro Cinematic
It’s been one week since Treyarch revealed the official title of the Liberty Falls mansion map, and since then, we’ve heard nothing in regards to the launch of Shattered Veil.
Seeing as the brand new map is predicted to reach on April 3, it’s about time for the developer to drop the map’s cinematic – however some followers suspect it is going to by no means come.
In spite of everything, The Tomb map, which arrived in Season 2, didn’t obtain a cinematic trailer previous to its launch. Nor did the Zombies map characteristic an intro when loading into the sport, regardless of one being current for all three earlier maps.
This was seemingly because of the SAG-AFTRA voice actor strikes making it tough for Activision to report new voice traces for its trailers. Nonetheless, it is also defined by an absence of time, or the studio prioritizing different issues within the leadup to the map’s launch.
To be clear, there’s nonetheless time for Treyarch to disclose a brand new trailer for Shattered Veil earlier than launch. Nonetheless, some followers consider that there may not be a lot level.
Have We Already Seen the Trailer?
In spite of everything, one other issue price contemplating is that we might have truly seen the Shattered Veil cinematic trailer already…
Within the introduction to Liberty Falls, we see Eddie Richtofen get up contained in the Undertaking Janus mansion. There, he learns of a zombie outbreak, battles the undead all through the mansion, and makes his method right down to S.A.M. which is breaking out of its confinement.
It’s the right setup to Shattered Veil, and has little to do with the Liberty Falls map it preceded. Is it doable that Treyarch merely launched this cutscene early, fairly than making one for the precise launch map?
If we had by no means seen this cinematic earlier than, we’d make certain that it’s for Shattered Veil.
In spite of everything, it doesn’t truly present something to do with Liberty Falls – and it teases S.A.M. being the villain even though our ally has by no means appeared sinister in-game.
It even reveals Richtofen having nightmares about his household burning, which Treyarch teases could possibly be an integral a part of the upcoming Zombies expertise:
What’s extra, the trailer showcases a number of areas from Treyarch’s in-game screenshots, together with the enduring T-Rex skeleton, and even teases the map’s Surprise Weapon!
For now, even when Treyarch doesn’t reveal a brand new cinematic for Shattered Veil, we are able to a minimum of benefit from the one we’ve.
However with out an introduction, the map dangers feeling a bit underwhelming to leap into when Season 3 arrives.
