The mantra for the new season is Keep Your Enemies Close, but Zombies players will have to be extra careful. It might not be advisable for them to get in close proximity to the undead, and there will be plenty of challenges coming their way.

BO6 Zombies Season 4 Grief Mode overview

The Grief mode will be a competitive setup between two teams of four players each. The objective for each team will be to outwit the opposition by capturing different zones that will apply debuffs to the enemies. This mode will be available across all five Zombies maps, and there will be certain restrictions.

This will be the first time since Black Ops 2 that the Grief mode will return to Zombies. For the first time, teams will be indirectly competing against one another, with the main focus being on strategically capturing the zones.
