Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War newcomer Maxis was causing issues in multiplayer and Zombies mode, but the issue has now been resolved.

Yesterday on March 4, a new bundle was added to Black Ops Cold War's in-game store, featuring new Operator Maxis. However, once players had purchased this new bundle to play as the new arrival, it turned out the Operator was the subject of several issues in multiplayer and Zombies, where they were apparently invisible to other players.

Later on, developer Treyarch clarified the issue. It turns out that the Maxis outfit was actually appearing as a different Operator, Adler, in Black Ops Cold War's multiplayer mode. However in the game's Zombies mode, they were entirely invisible to other players, so no one could see the player while they were using the Maxis outfit as their chosen Operator.

The Maxis bundle is currently available in the Black Ops Cold War store for a grand total of 2,400 COD Points. If you're unfamiliar with the newcomer, she's a character in the game's Zombies mode, who was first introduced last month in February with the new Firebase Z Zombies map. Now though, the character has made the jump to the multiplayer mode, and you can play as her online if you shell out for the bundle.
