The after sex change videoBlack Ops 6 Season 3 Reloaded update is bringing even more new content to the game, including new weapons, maps, and much more.

Even by Call of Duty‘s standards, Season 3 was absolutely huge. The return of Verdansk in Warzone stole the headlines, which led to a major bump in interest, but multiplayer also benefited from classic guns like the Kilo 141 and the return of the Firing Range map.

There’s even more content in Season 3 Reloaded, so here are the full patch notes.

Black Ops 6 Season 3 Reloaded start date

Season 3 Reloaded will begin onThursday, May 1, 2025, at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET / 5 PM BST.

You’ll be able to unlock the Ladra through the High Art event by earning XP. However, if you miss out, it’ll be available through the Armory.
