When does Prop Hunt mode come back in Black Ops 6?

Basically, one of the posts from the Black Ops 6 account on X mentioned that Prop Hunt mode is making a comeback in Season 1. However, I hate to break it to you that this game mode will not be available just after the commencement of Season 1. 

With that said, you can expect Prop Hunt mode to return during the mid-season update, which probably happens after a two-week to four-week timeframe. Usually, Prop Hunt mode sticks around for a bit, so it’ll probably wrap up when Season 1 ends.

Prop Hunt mode gameplay in Black Ops 6 explained

Prop Hunt mode is basically a hide-and-seek game with a twist. In this, you are chosen as a prop or hunter, and you will be hiding or hunting based on your role. If you are a prop, you will be given random items such as a vase, a signboard, etc. to choose from.

Once you have chosen the item, you have to blend in with the environment and make sure to not get caught by the hunters. You can also clone yourself to make a perfect setup to blend in the environment.

If you are a hunter, you have to basically look for the props and hunt them. To help you in hunting, props will whistle after 30 seconds so that you can get a rough idea where they are. However, the hunters will have to kill all props before the timer runs out. If the hunter fails to capture all the props, the prop team will win.
