Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Holiday Events Announced

<a href="https://www.gamespot.com/call-of-duty-black-ops-4/">Call of Duty: Black Ops 4</a> has rolled out its December 20 update, and along with it a slew of new holiday-themed events and modes. Two pillars of the multiplayer shooter have gotten their own bit of eggnog and nutmeg flavor to ring in the season: a Blackout holiday event, Winter Calling in Zombies, and a Winter Event stream for the Black Market.In the Blackout holiday event, Blackout players can use tactical Snowballs and holiday-themed supply stashes. The maps are also decked out with festive lights and decorations. In Zombies, you can complete some unique challenges for new exclusive personalization items. These special challenges can be accepted from the Barracks, and taken alongside your regular Daily Calling challenges.Finally, the Winter Event Stream has come to the Black Market, offering some winter loot like warpaints and gestures. Those will appear in the Contraband section, and you can complete the new Winter Event tiers alongside the current Absolute Zero tiers to unlock scads of new loot.Black Ops 4 is currently <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/40-for-call-of-duty-black-ops-4-ps4-xbox-one-pc/1100-6463916/">on sale at some retailers</a> for $40, and Activision appears to be experimenting with letting players <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/black-ops-4-is-only-30-on-pc-if-you-dont-care-abou/1100-6463715/">buy its pieces a la carte</a> on PC.
