Activision just released the new teaser for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies Season 5 and the community is going from hype, to nostalgia, to a slight skeptical attitude. The teaser shared by CharlieINTEL gave us a dreamy look at what happens and judging by the responses, it looks like Panzer would be making his comeback. Yes, that mechanical nightmare from Black Ops 2 Zombies.

And what exactly is behind this teaser? Short and cryptic-yet, it kept buzzing around the minds of the players. Some are excited, with @Snackzachss responding “Oh fuck yea,” while others are already expressing concerns about the Panzer’s return. @SalamenceFury weighed in with: “The Panzer is back oh no we’re cooked lmao.” And honestly? I speak for myself there: That was a fun nightmare.

Not everyone is ready for it. The classic “Call of Duty is dead” comeback came from @osimhenoglu: It’ll never be like the golden days of MW2, BO1, and BO2. Meanwhile, @DontBeDumb71 gave constructive suggestions: “They should spend less time on teasers and more time on actual gameplay.” Fair enough, but come on, the hype train is overflowing with teasers, and this one is hitting it big.

Confusion eats on. @You_Not_Found_ said, “This isn’t BO7?” which…no mate, we are still on Black Ops 6. @KNeos_ responded with a German message-translated: “Guido is back.. do you think this will be good again without that plate loadout crap?”- truly confirming how international the Zombies community really is.

Nostalgia is hitting hard here indeed. @Noepere23977069 dropped “I know this guy from BO2 Zombies,” accompanied by a screenshot in another tweet. On the contrary, @ArcticFire25 extended the hype with “Panzers let’s gooo.”

Now, a handful are preparing themselves for some agony. @Soulbound_TV joked: “Can’t wait to spend 3 hours dying on round 4 again 😭,” and… that really is the mood. It’s always been about the grind for Zombies, and Season 5 looks ready to keep going.

So what will happen next? More teasers, certainly. Perhaps some gameplay, absolutely. And definitely a million-fold more debates on whether Call of Duty is still good. Something worth knowing for sure is that Black Ops 6 Zombies Season 5 is also looking wild, and the players will either be ready or lying.

Now, if you will excuse us, we’re going to go back and mentally get ready for the Panzer. Because, oh carve, we’re going to need it.
