New maps, a new specialist, and Blackout map flood.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’s new Operation Spectre Rising update is now live on PlayStation 4, with PC and Xbox One releases likely to follow next week if past updates are any indication.

A press release describes Operation Spectre Rising as an “assassin-themed update” that brings new maps, new modes, a new specialist, and lots more – including changes to the Blackout battle royale mode and new cosmetics. Some content in this update is free, while other parts will require the paid Black Ops Pass to access.

Included for free is the new Assassin specialist, who has smoke grenades and a “Shadow Blade” that allows for targeted melee kills. Blackout’s standard map has also been flooded by the Hydro Dam exploding, while the Zombies mode will get new weapons and challenges through the Operation Spectre Rising event. New Black Market cosmetics to unlock have also been added as part of the free update.

On the paid side of things, having the Black Ops pass will also give you access to three new Multiplayer maps: Masquerade, Artifact, and the remastered WMD returning from the original Black Ops. Finally, it will provide “instant access” to a new Blackout character named Uncle Frank, an older version of Black Ops 2’s Frank Woods.

In other Call of Duty news, Activision may have revealed the next Call of Duty last week by letting some football players play it ahead of time. For more on Black Ops 4, you can check out some tips and tricks for Blackout.
