Operation Deadbolt will debut with the launch of MW3 Zombies on November 9, 2023, across all platforms. Aside from surviving the Zombie onslaught, Operation Deadbolt will feature other objectives.

The Field Upgrades introduced in MW3 Zombies are extremely different from the Field Upgrades available across other Call of Duty multiplayer titles. They are unlocked by progressing through one's Military Ranks. With the release of Modern Warfare 3, players will have access to six unlockable Field Upgrades, including:

1. Energy Mine (Medium Recharge): With Energy Mine, players will spawn an explosive that will deal massive damage to any enemy that sets it off.
2. Frenzied Guard (Slow Recharge): The Frenzied Guard upgrade repairs a player's armor to full and then proceeds to influence and force all enemies in a radius to target you for 10 seconds. Killing any enemies during this period will consistently repair the player's armor.
3. Healing Aura (Slow Recharge): Players will be able to heal all players within a specific radius immediately.
4. Aether Shroud (Medium Recharge): With this Field Upgrade, players will turn invisible to zombies, ensuring their sustenance for a longer duration. It is a get-out-of-jail-free card of sorts.
5. Tesla Storm (Slow Recharge): Upon activating Tesla Storm, players become connected by lightning, which proceeds to stun and damage any nearby enemies for 10 seconds.
6. Frost Blast (Medium Recharge): Players can use Frost Blast to damage any enemies with its initial blast and slow any enemy who enters its area of effect.

With Modern Warfare 3 Zombies, players will be able to recruit any unlocked and unlockable Operator for their Zombies Strike Team. Players who have ported their operators from Modern Warfare 2 or have proceeded to unlock new operators via MW3 will also be able to recruit the same for their Zombie missions.

Furthermore, each member of the Strike Team has access to five customizable loadouts, including equipment and gear. Any gear found during the tenure of missions will be saved into the Operator loadout, including Killstreaks, Armor, Gas Masks, and Medical items.
