Yes, Black Ops 6 does have Nuketown. However, there's a catch. The map will not be in the shooter on day one and instead will be added to the game as a post-launch update. Call of Duty recently teased the map in a 19-second clip which not only confirmed that the map is returning to the game but also announced the release date for fans to look forward to.
Read more below to find out everything that you need to know about Nuketown in Black Ops 6.
When does Nuketown release in Black Ops 6?
Nuketown will be coming to Black Ops 6 on November 1, 2024. Recently, Call of Duty dropped a short teaser for the upcoming map, giving fans a look at the brand-new variant of the iconic Black Ops map.

The clip begins with a camera shot of the mannequins on the map and then a nuke goes off. This is followed by the camera panning over to show a board that reads, Welcome to Nuketown. November 1.
Although the map has been the staple of the series since Black Ops 1, it was not revealed initially. Despite Treyarch listing all the launch maps for the shooter, the classic Black Ops was surprisingly missing and the developers didn't talk about it either.
Even during the first game reveal event in Xbox Direct, the map wasn't showcased and it led to fans believing that Treyarch is finally doing away with the iconic map.

However, during the Direct event, fans got a glimpse of the map on a developer's system. This inadvertently confirmed that the map will be in the game. But since it wasn't listed among the 16 launch maps for BO6, it left fans wondering when it will be added to the game. This gave rise to a lot of doubts and speculations.
Many claimed that the map would be replaced by Sandhouse, which shared a lot of similarities with Nuketown. However, these reports were later debunked as fans had seen the original map in a developer's console. Furthermore, Sandhouse was later renamed to Warhead, which is a Strike map (2v2) and Nuketown has always been a Core map (6v6).
Despite these developments, speculations ran wild in the game's community about the classic map.
Fortunately, with the recent teaser, Call of Duty has put all these doubts to rest. It is now finally confirmed "officially" that Nuketown will be in Black Ops 6 and it will be joining the game on November 1, 2024, almost a week after the game releases on October 25, 2024.
