Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is getting a much-requested feature: in-game challenge tracking. Treyarch Studios confirmed the development of this UI addition, addressing player disappointment over its absence from launch, unlike its inclusion in 2023's Modern Warfare 3.
While a release date remains unannounced, the upcoming Season 2 update later this month hints at a potential near-term arrival. This news follows a January 9th update focusing on bug fixes for Multiplayer and Zombies modes. The update notably reversed a controversial Zombies change from January 3rd, restoring the original round timing and zombie spawn mechanics in Directed Mode following significant community feedback.
Challenge Tracking on the Way
Treyarch's Twitter response to a fan inquiry confirmed the challenge tracking feature is "currently in the works." This functionality, popular in Modern Warfare 3, will significantly improve the Black Ops 6 experience, particularly for players pursuing Mastery camos. It's anticipated the implementation will mirror Modern Warfare 3, providing a real-time challenge tracker accessible via the in-game UI, showing progress without needing to end a match.
Additional Improvements Planned
Further enhancements are also underway. Treyarch acknowledged a fan request for separate HUD settings for Multiplayer and Zombies, confirming this feature is "also in the works." This would eliminate the need to constantly adjust HUD settings when switching game modes. These developments signal Treyarch's commitment to improving Black Ops 6 based on player feedback.
