Call of Duty Black Ops 6 October 26 patch notes: XP gain fixes, map fixes & more

As a seasoned Call of Duty player with years of gaming under my belt, I can confidently say that the upcoming October 26 patch for Black Ops 6 is music to my battle-worn ears! The game’s launch has been nothing short of impressive, but even the smoothest of ships need occasional maintenance. This patch promises to address those minor yet pesky issues that have been causing a bit of a nuisance in the gaming experience.


After its release, Call of Duty Black Ops 6 is receiving an urgent update to rectify significant issues affecting the gameplay experience. This patch will address numerous map loopholes and improve XP gains – features crucial for smooth gameflow. While most post-launch patches may not be highly consequential, this one carries substantial weight due to its impact.

The debut of Black Ops 6 has been remarkably successful given its substantial player base. Remarkably, server problems have been kept minimal, and critical in-game glitches are scarcely encountered. Nevertheless, some do occur, and Treyarch intends to rectify these issues with the patch scheduled for October 26.

In this update, you may not notice adjustments to weapon balancing, such as alterations to overpowered setups like the powerful SVD build. However, there’s a lot to be excited about in this release. For the comprehensive list of changes for October 26, here are the complete BO6 patch notes:
