Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 won’t be released for well over two months, but the game has been leaking all over the internet over the past several days, revealing new information about the upcoming title.

Modded PS4s have been the source of hundreds of players making their way into the BO6 beta servers early, so various videos and screenshots have been circulating all week. But the latest purported leak has to do with Zombies—and it may be the biggest news yet.

According to notorious CoD leaker Bob, BO6’s Zombies mode will potentially be introducing a revolutionary addition to the series that players have been wanting to see for a very, very long time.

“If I’m reading this correctly, you can ‘save and quit’ a solo match of Zombies in BO6, allowing you to return to your Zombies match later,” the leaker said on their newest alternate account.

Zombies is often a group co-op experience for many, but just as many players like to play solo while exploring the map, attempting Easter eggs, leveling weapons, or just mindlessly slaying Zombies for fun. But if you have to end your game for any reason, the journey comes to an end.

The ability to save your progress, quit out of the game, and return to the exact point you saved would be a monumental addition to the series that players have only been able to dream of.

This info should absolutely be taken with a large grain of salt since it’s wholly unsubstantiated and is likely coming from an unfinished version of the game, but the leaker in question has been correct on several occasions in CoD before, often receiving account bans for the information they’ve revealed.

The wait for more news is thankfully not much longer, Zombies gamers. More information about BO6 Zombies is set to be revealed tomorrow, Aug. 8, and the full game launches on Oct. 25.
