Now, a new tweet from the official Treyarch Twitter account is hinting at the return of one of the most popular characters in the Aether story. The tweet does not announce anything outright, but it does feature a blueprint for a device called a Beacon Communications Receiver accompanied by a few post-it notes that are signed merely by the letter “R.” The evidence seems to be pointing towards the return of Edward Richtofen in afuture update forCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s Zombies modethat seems to be coming on May 20.
The tweet is short on details about what Rictofen’s inclusion in the mode will look like, but it could take a few different forms. With the tweet referencing a hunt beginning, it could be that there will be a new Hunt for Richtofen event similar toCall of Duty: Warzone’s recent Hunt for Adler event. It could also indicate a Richtofen operator being added to the game or anew quest being worked intoCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s Zombies Outbreak modethat will continue Richtofen’s story.
Regardless of how Rictofen is added to the game, the update seems pretty exciting for fans of the Aether storyline. So far,Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold WarZombies has featured an entirely new cast of characters, so it will be nice to see a familiar face pop up again. With how much the Zombies experience has changed in the lifespan ofCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warit will also be interesting to see what cool new thingsCall of Duty 2021does with the Zombies modewhen it launches later this year.
