Summary

• Treyarch confirms it is working on adding a feature to allow Black Ops 6 players to track challenges in the game's UI.
• Challenge tracking was available in 2023's Modern Warfare 3, but did not carry over to Black Ops 6.
• A release date for the feature is currently unknown, but a major content update is coming later this month.

Treyarch Studios, the developer behind Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, has exciting news for fans: they're actively working to reintroduce challenge tracking to the game's user interface (UI). This feature, beloved by players in 2023's Modern Warfare 3, was notably absent when Black Ops 6 launched, leaving many fans disappointed. While the exact release date for this eagerly awaited feature remains a mystery, hope is on the horizon with Season 2 set to roll out later this month.

On January 9, Treyarch released a comprehensive update for Black Ops 6, enhancing both Multiplayer and Zombies modes. The update tackled multiple bugs related to the game's UI and audio, and boosted XP rewards for the newly introduced Red Light, Green Light game mode in Multiplayer. However, it was the Zombies mode that saw the most significant changes. Following substantial feedback from the community, Treyarch reversed a controversial update from January 3, eliminating the extended time between rounds and the delay in zombie spawns after five looped rounds in Directed Mode.

Treyarch Confirms New Black Ops 6 Feature in Development

Although not detailed in the recent patch notes, Treyarch responded to a fan's query on Twitter about adding challenge tracking during Multiplayer matches. The studio confirmed that this feature is "currently in the works." The ability to track challenges was a standout feature in Modern Warfare 3, and its absence in Black Ops 6, despite both games being part of the Call of Duty HQ app, was a significant letdown for the community.

For players striving to earn Black Ops 6's coveted Mastery camos, the return of challenge tracking could be a game-changer. If implemented similarly to Modern Warfare 3, players will be able to select specific challenges, such as headshot camos, and monitor their progress in real-time within the game's UI. This means no more waiting until the end of a match to check how close you are to achieving your goals.

In another fan interaction, Treyarch also confirmed that they are developing a major update for Black Ops 6 Zombies. A fan requested the ability to have distinct HUD settings for Multiplayer and Zombies, eliminating the need to adjust settings every time players switch between modes. Treyarch responded positively, stating that this feature is "also in the works."
