Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War finally has its own version of Nuketown with Treyarch releasing the Nuketown ’84 map on Tuesday, but the map didn’t release on its own. It came with an update for Black Ops Cold War that affected both the Multiplayer and Zombies modes but didn’t include nearly as many changes as the bigger update from last week did. Instead, it simply fixed a couple of problems that had been affecting different parts of the game while also reminding players of a welcome bonus that’s live now to celebrate the launch of the new Nuketown map.
