All the tiers and upgrades for the Death Perception Zombies Perk have been revealed as it enters the mix in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Season 5.

Every couple of months Black Ops Cold War gets a little injection of fresh energy with new maps, guns, and meta-changes. Season 5 is welcoming all of this and is also making sure not to leave Zombies out of the equation.

Cold War Season 5 won’t quite have the seismic addition of Mauer der Toten Zombies, but the return of the Death Perception from Black Ops IIII is one of the new additions. It lets the player know the location of enemies through walls, and any that are closing in on the player off-screen.

We know the full extent of the tiers and upgrades that will be available for Death Perception in Cold War Season 5.

All Death Perception Perk tiers & upgrades

Tiers for the new Death Perception Perk:

  • I Minimap update rate increased
  • II Enemies give danger indicators when behind the Player
  • III Gain 20% more looted salvage
  • IV increase armor penetration damage by 10%
  • V Nearby chests, resources & item drops are key lined through walls

So as well as the usual benefits that players have enjoyed in the past, the Perk has been updated a bit as well.

Increased armor penetration is a standout ability here as late-game rounds, and in particular, Outbreak can become littered with armored enemies.

As well as Death Perception, there will also be a brand new Field Upgrade for players to trigger mid-game called Tesla Storm.

These are all part of the big changes in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Season 5. The game’s content is starting to become really stacked, and new buffs and nerfs are also changing the gameplay too.
