Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War: Is Richtofen Returning As An Operator?


Patch 1.07 for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has gone live as Treyarch prepares for the launch of Season One.

The first season of post-launch content for the fifth chapter of the Black Ops series will see a huge amount of content arriving across Black Ops Cold War and Warzone.

Along with the addition of new multiplayer maps, game modes, and the introduction of Rebirth Island to Warzone, Season One will be the first time new Operators will be added into both titles.

The cinematic trailer for the new season gave players their first look at Stitch, a former KGB agent intent on exacting his revenge on Agent Adler.

Along with the reveal of Stitch, players could see an iconic Black Ops character returning as an Operator.

Here’s everything we know about Richtofen returning to Black Ops.

There has been no mention of any characters from the previous Zombies storyline returning on Black Ops Cold War. Was Richtofen’s appearance an unintentional bug or is there something that Treyarch isn’t revealing?!

Treyarch has been quiet regarding any Zombies content arriving in Season One, so there is every chance that Richtofen could well be arriving at some point during the new season.

Season 1 Zombies Content

As December 16th continues to move closer, the lack of Zombies content is certainly worrying for fans of the survival mode.

So far, the only mention of new Zombies content has been on the Season One road-map which says that new Zombies modes are on the way.

For those expecting a brand-new map to arrive, you may have to wait a little longer to jump into the next chapter of the story.
