CODMAS always brings out Call of Duty's more festive side, instilling a wintery change to classic maps and games. For Black Ops 6, we have the limited-time mode, Jingle Hells. We're here to explain what this mode is and how it affects Zombies.
The Jingle Hells limited mode transforms Zombies' Liberty Falls into a winter wonderland. Despite the undead still roaming the map, the festive ambiance with its adorned Christmas trees, snow, and zombie costumes will surely get you in the holiday mood. However, this also presents some challenges, as the Mystery Box, Crafting Table, and Arsenal Machines are inaccessible due to the winter storm, adding an extra layer of difficulty to the Main Quest.
Although things like the Mystery Box are inaccessible, you can look forward to the following new content:
The many gifts that Jingle Hells promises will make Liberty Falls much easier to handle. Though, it does come at a price, as you can sometimes trigger a zombie showdown if you're on the naughty list. Keep an eye out for the Snowmen around the map, which will be marked with a red marker. While they may seem harmless, it's best to always be prepared for a fight in case things take a turn.
Those new to Zombies should know about the mode's S.A.M. Trials. This trial allows you to participate in a limited-time challenge, including landing a certain amount of punches with Melee Macchiato or initiating enough dolphin dives using PhD Flopper. You'll then be rewarded with high-valued items, going up in rarity the more kills you get.
With Jingle Hells, S.A.M. will now be known as "S.A.M.T.A. Trials." The challenges will more or less remain the same but with a holiday twist. You can also unwrap some presents scattered around the trial machine, so be sure to check it out each time it spawns.
Get ready for this mode on Dec. 17, going along with the rest of the CODMAS 2024 events. It isn't quite clear when this limited-time mode concludes. However, given that the last celebration ends around Jan. 3, it could close up during that time.
