After a few weeks of complaints and angry fans, Treyarch has fixed the issues in Black Ops 4 Zombies. The new Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 update is a massive one and includes changes in all modes. In this post, we’ll go over the patch notes of the Black Ops 4 update for Zombies, which is an area of the game that players wanted to see fix for quite some time.

Everything went wrong last week, when an angry fired Treyarch employee took to Reddit to let fans know that the studio only cared about the game’s stability due to content creators. According to him, this is the main reason they are fixing the Zombies mode.
