Prop huntthe beloved hide and seek game mode from Call of Duty’s past, returns to BlackOps6 during Season 1.
Party mode plays the same way as previous Call of Duty titles, but now you play on new maps and with them new props to hide in.
The mode is rounded out with the addition of Stakeout 24/7, Hardcore Stakeout 24/7 and an early Double XP weekend “celebrate” a record breaking BlackOps6 launch.
Read on to find out when Prop Hunt and Double XP weekend start BlackOps6 in your time zone, and how Prop Hunt works.
Black Ops 6 Double XP weekend and Prop Hunt release time estimated in your time zone
The next Double XP weekend and Prop Hunt begin BlackOps6 will arrive Wednesday November 27.
While no official time has been provided, based on the daily reset time – and when Nuketown was added to the game earlier this month – it appears to be in the following window:
- 9-11am PST off the west coast of North America
- 12-2pm EST off the east coast of North America
- 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM GMT for Great Britain
- 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM CET for western mainland Europe
- 2-4 hours JST on November 28 in Japan
Both are also joined by Stackout 24/7 and Hardcore Stakeout 24/7 modes, plus double Gobblegum in Zombies.
As for the end of the Double XP event, since it’s being described as a “weekend” event (likely in line with Thanksgiving) we have to assume it will last until the end of Sunday.
What is Prop Hunt in Black Ops 6?
Originally a mod of Modern Warfare 2Prop Hunt made its first official appearance in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare remastered as a temporary mode in Weekend Warfare before being voted to become a permanent game mode.
Since then, Prop Hunt has appeared in every subsequent Call of Duty title until 2020 Black Ops Cold Warwhere it last appeared.
If you want to see what Prop Hunt was like in previous Call of Duty titles, check out this chaotic, yet hilarious video from oldtime101:
Prop Hunt follows the rules of hide and seek and you are given the role of Prop or Hunter. As Prop, your job is to disguise yourself as an object you find on the map and avoid elimination by blending in with your surroundings until time runs out. If you are spotted, you can run, disguise yourself as a new object, drop decoy tools and throw stun grenades at the hunters. Be careful though, because you’ll be blowing a loud whistle every 30 seconds to attract the Hunters.
As a hunter, your job is to track down the props by looking for anything unusual. Look for lost objects, running objects or even whistling objects and take them out in any way you can. Whether you become a Prop or a Hunter, take a moment to escape the rankings and skin rut and enjoy the silly side of Call of Duty.
