"When a party at an English mansion turns into an undead bloodbath, a phony psychic, stage-show cowboy, retired general and bedeviled butler must fight for their lives."

- Mission Briefing

Dead of the Night is the fifth Zombies map featured in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, and the twenty-ninth map overall. It was released on December 11th, 2018 first for PlayStation 4, and is available through the Black Ops Pass. It was released on December 18th, 2018 for Xbox One and PC. The map features a cast of new characters portrayed by celebrities, three new enemies, as well as three new wonder weapons; a revolver-like weapon known as Alistair's Folly, a wooden crossbow known as the Savage Impaler, and a wooden stake known as the Stake Knife.

Overview
Dead of the Night is set in Alistair Rhodes' mansion in England. The map is quite large, beating out IX but is smaller than Voyage of Despair. When players first spawn in, they will be divided by a barrier that can only be opened by acquiring the map's Sentinel Artifact, acting in a similar manner to Verrückt. When a player opens a door on one side of the barrier, the other set of doors will open on the other. When the player reaches the Sentinel Artifact and activates it, more of the map will be opened up.

From the Main Hall, the player can travel north, west, or east. Heading east will bring the player through the bedrooms, dining room, and eventually the gardens and greenhouse laboratory. Heading west will bring the player through the billiards room, library, and eventually the cemetery and mausoleum. Heading north will bring the player to the forest, which can be opened by collecting three tuning forks. There are also small hallways that connect the main hall with the dining room and library, and beneath the grand staircase is the wine cellar. In each of the main areas at the end of each direction are fast travel portals which brings the player back to the main hall. There is also a fast travel portal in the entrance hall that brings the player to the forest once the latter is unlocked.

This map also features different spawnable locations for each of the Perk Altars aside from Danu. While Danu will always spawn in the entrance hall, Ra, Zeus, and Odin will spawn at either the forest terrace, wine cellar, gardens, or mausoleum.
