==Overview==
Factions were announced as a "full season of 12 unique challenge events across all Zombies maps and game modes" that would reward players with "never-before-seen character customization loot".
Factions were also supposed to "add another dimension" to the Chaos storyline as players could choose to side with four different factions, Bloodfaith, Tempus Novi, Dustborn or The First Legion. The Factions would expand and flesh out the Zombies universe with each event culminating the Faction-based narrative. Jason Blundell explained that they would "add a new layer to the Zombies experience, who do you stand with, and what does that mean as you progress along that path?"

==Trivia==
*One of the Zombies Dark Ops Calling Cards for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 called "All the Facts" requires players to "Complete all Factions in Faction Callings Season 1". Players are currently unable to acquire the calling card to unlock the Dark Ops Master calling card.
**This also hints there were several seasons of Faction Callings planned for the game.
**On November 5th, 2019, the "All the Facts" Dark Ops was replaced by the "One of Us" Dark Ops which requires half the Zombies Dark Ops to be acquired.https://www.reddit.com/r/CODZombies/comments/ds3761/the_factions_dark_ops_calling_card_has_been/
