An alleged leak has revealed maps, weapons, features and more set to appear in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War just ahead of the game's official reveal.

In a video that has since been removed after a copyright claim by Activision, Call of Duty YouTuber SalvationsElite reportedly cited an unnamed but "really reliable source," for his information.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Map Leaks

SalvationsElite discussed three maps he said were coming to Cold War multiplayer. The first is a 6-vs-6 map set inside a club in downtown Miami. The second is an open desert with ammo crates and loadout-swap points that allow players to resupply mid-match. The third is a 12-vs-12 Ground War map with three warships in the sea connected by zip lines. Players will also be able to swim among from ship to ship.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Game Mode Leaks

SalvationsElite claimed a new game mode called VIP would be introduced in Cold War. VIP would task players with transporting a high-value target to a designated location or preventing the other team from doing the same. He also claimed Hardpoint would return in Cold War.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Weapon and Loadout Leaks

Ten weapons appeared in SalvationsElite's video. They include the following:

  • Assault Rifles: M16-A2, AK5
  • Submachine Guns: MP5, AK74u, an Uzi-style gun
  • Sniper Rifles: M40
  • Uncategorized: Type 63, Stoner 63, Type 15, Colt Commando

SalvationsElite claims loadouts will use a mixture of the Black Ops 4 and Modern Warfare systems. Players will be able to put five attachments on both their guns without losing a slot.

All classes will have three slots for perks, and one perk will allow players to put up to seven attachments on their weapon. Dead Silence will return as a perk rather than a Field Upgrade, which will also return in the form of proximity mines, trophy systems and more.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Killstreak Leaks

Cold War will allegedly use a combination killstreak/scorestreak system. Streaks will be earned with kills, but score multipliers will allow kills to be worth more points. The available streaks will include UAV, VTOL, Chopper Gunner, Cruise Missile, Napalm Strike and Artillery Strike.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Feature Leaks

Finally, SalvationsElite's video revealed several miscellaneous features and details:

  • Multiplayer will pit C.I.A. against the Spetsnaz
  • EKIA will return
  • Movement will include slides and slide cancelling
  • Players will have 150 health, but with a faster time-to-kill than Black Ops 4
  • Full health regeneration
  • Skill-based matchmaking
  • Mini-map will feature the standard red dots
  • No specialists

Activision will start confirming or discrediting this leak when it officially reveals Cold War in Warzone on Wednesday.
