You didn\u2019t think we\u2019d let you head into the long holiday weekend without some sweet 2XP and a dedicated Nuketown playlist, did you? Maybe you did. That\u2019s fair. Well, buckle up because we\u2019re activating our 2XP Nuketown playlist in Multiplayer, starting now through 10AM PT Tuesday, Sept. 3rd! Hot Pursuit Returns on All Platforms We\u2019re also bringing Hot Pursuit back to Blackout on all platforms today so you can slay all weekend long with your friends\u2026 and we\u2019re not stopping next week, either. Special birthday shout-out to COD partymaster u\/h0b0_shanker on this one\u2026 we got you. We know just how much people love to play Hot Pursuit and Alcatraz, and while we try to keep them both featured as often as possible, we also have a ton of players who can\u2019t get enough of Blackout\u2019s other LTMs as well, including Ambush and Pandemic. In the interest of keeping matchmaking times low and player counts high, we\u2019ll continue to swap in new and returning LTMs from time to time in the Featured Playlist slot. After all, keeping things fresh and interesting is why we run limited-time modes. We\u2019re happy to run Hot Pursuit and Alcatraz simultaneously this week so everyone can party up and get wild during the long weekend, so get out there and show us what you\u2019ve got. \u201cHeatwave\u201d Event Continues Through Sept. 3 As an added bonus, you\u2019ll unlock additional rewards as our new \u201cHeatwave\u201d Contraband event continues through 10AM PT Tuesday, culminating in an earnable Ultra Weapon Bribe at Tier 15. Remember to jump into Zombies every day for that extra Daily Tier Skip! And while we\u2019re on the topic of Zombies\u2026 The Final Chapter in the Aether Story Approaches We know our Zombies community has been collectively counting the days, minutes, and seconds until the first hints of our final Aether story experience in Black Ops 4, and it\u2019s almost time. As we near the end of the 2019 DLC season, the team has been 100% laser-focused on making this final map the best experience possible for long-time Zombies fans. We also know the community has been looking forward to tying up all the loose ends from over a decade of storytelling, and we can\u2019t wait to share the secrets and surprises to come. In the meantime, we\u2019ll have the first details and teasers for DLC 4 coming early next week\u2026 so enjoy the long weekend, and we\u2019ll see you when you get back.
