00:00Terminus is one of our biggest round-based maps we've ever made,
00:03and it's full of experiences to discover and really explore.
00:07We're here to break down all the new features that are going to be coming to Black Ops 6.
00:14Terminus is taking place in the early 90s,
00:16five years after the events of Cold War Zombies.
00:19It seemed like a really cool place, like a tropical setting
00:22with various little islands out in the distance.
00:24It's one part jail and other part secret research facility in the Philippine Sea
00:29to just develop weird science.
00:31The first thing you're going to see is just everything's dark, really moody,
00:34everything will shut down, you know something's happened there.
00:36We want to set the mood so the player could feel the chaos
00:40of the recent outbreak of the zombies.
00:43We pushed the visual a lot, so it make it more realistic.
00:47We're treating Terminus as a living world,
00:49which are just different ways to bring the world to life.
00:52Living World is scripted encounters that we've placed in the map to add to ambience.
00:56We have these tubes that have zombies inside of them.
01:00And when the player walks by them, it'll trigger the escape sequence for them.
01:04It'll be very scary and shocking.
01:07Give that feeling of, wow, this is a world that's existed prior to the player coming in.
01:10Zombies have been attacking everything, everywhere.
01:12So as you move into these spaces, we're really telling that story.
01:15Prison guards are still dying around you.
01:18You would encounter maybe a guard being eaten alive by a couple zombies
01:20and then they see you and come and attack you.
01:22The zombies, they can range from scientists to security experiments.
01:27Every time you enter a new space, you don't know exactly what to expect.
01:30A zombie head pops out. It's a vermin.
01:32And then it eventually gestates and then becomes a parasite.
01:35The tentacle trap is, that's just an awesome trap.
01:38The tentacle trap?
01:41They're placed over doorways.
01:42It drops down and eats up all the zombies that pass through.
01:45It's a beast of a main quest.
01:47You know, it'll use the ocean. It'll use the islands.
01:49It'll use every part of the map proper.
01:52It's one of the bigger maps we've created.
01:53We wanted you to really, like, think about how you're moving through this space.
01:57We never had a drivable vehicle.
01:59You can go drive a boat anywhere on the entire map.
02:02All that space out there that I thought was just the environment.
02:05That feeling of, like, I can go anywhere is, like, so exciting.
02:09In true zombies fashion, you're never safe anywhere for very long.
02:12A little bit of a foreshadow to something bigger that you might encounter.
02:15You know, we're really excited for everyone to just get their hands on it in Black Ops 6.
