This leak comes from TheGamingRevolution, who has been accurate about Call of Duty leaks in the past. Even so, fans should still take this information with a grain of salt. It’s entirely possible that TheGamingRevolution’s information is off or that plans will change by the time the game comes out.

In a new video, TheGamingRevolution claims that Zombies in Call of Duty 2020, itself rumored to be a Black Ops reboot, will retain things like perks and Pack-A-Punch while still being “way different than before.” There will reportedly be multiple ways to play Zombies in Call of Duty 2020, though specific details weren’t revealed in TheGamingRevolution’s new video.
TheGamingRevolution stresses that his source for the Zombies information isn’t quite as reliable as his source for other Black Ops reboot leaks, but the claim was made that a TranZit remake map will be “on disc” for Call of Duty 2020. TranZit, for those who may not remember, was a popular Zombies map from Black Ops 2 that revolved around riding a bus to and from various locations.
TheGamingRevolution believes that the TranZit remake map, as well as Buried and Die Rise remakes, were all intended for Black Ops 4 Zombies, but were scrapped as Treyarch had to turn its attention to Call of Duty 2020 prematurely. Because of this, it’s theorized that Buried and Die Rise remakes will also be coming to Call of Duty 2020 as well. As far as new maps, if the Black Ops reboot is set during the Cold War, it’s expected that Zombies will be based in Vietnam.
As far as the ongoing Zombies storyline, it’s less clear what Treyarch will be doing with that. It’s possible it will reboot the Zombies story along with the campaign or even attempt a continuation of some kind. It’s noted that since Treyarch’s Zombies director Jason Blundell has left the company, Zombies will likely take a new creative direction than in previous entries.
Again, none of this has been confirmed and fans should treat all of these claims with a healthy amount of skepticism. But since new Call of Duty games are typically revealed in May or June, it’s possible that fans won’t have to wait long to find out if any of this is legitimate or not.
Call of Duty 2020 is in development for unspecified platforms.
