Mastering the Camo Challenges in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies
The pursuit of camos is a core element of the yearly Call of Duty experience, and Black Ops 6 Zombies continues this tradition. This guide details every camo challenge within the game's Zombies mode.
Unlocking Mastery Camos in Black Ops 6 Zombies
Unlocking camos in Black Ops 6 differs from recent Call of Duty titles. It combines classic headshot-based camo grinds with the base camo system from Modern Warfare 2 and Modern Warfare 3.
Zombies players must achieve specific kill milestones (varying by weapon class) to unlock nine "Military Camos." These must be earned for each weapon individually. Unlocking all Military Camos for a weapon then opens up the Special Camo challenges. These challenges are weapon-specific but can be applied to any weapon after completing all Military Camos. The two Special Camos can be unlocked in any order. Completing them unlocks the first Mastery Camo challenge, leading to Mystic Gold for that weapon.
Unlocking Opal and Afterlife Camo requires completing Mystic Gold challenges for a set number of weapons in each class, followed by completing the Opal Camo Challenge for 33 weapons. This unlocks the Afterlife Camo Challenges and the final Nebula Camo challenges. Remember, Mastery Camos are weapon-specific.
Detailed Camo Challenges by Weapon Class
Below are the specific camo challenges for each weapon type in Black Ops 6 Zombies.
Assault Rifles
Each Assault Rifle requires critical kills, plus completion of two Special Camo and all Mastery Camo challenges. Examples include:
- XM4: Purple Tiger (2000 Critical Kills), Liquify (300 Eliminations with Napalm Burst), Mainframe (30 Vermin Eliminations), Mystic Gold (10 rapid kills 15 times), Opal (30 Special Zombie Eliminations), Afterlife (20+ consecutive kills 10 times without damage), Nebula (10 Elite Zombie Eliminations).
- Similar structures apply to the AK74, AMES 85, GPR 91, Model L, Goblin MK 2, AS VAL, and Krig C, each with unique challenge names and requirements.
SMGs
SMGs follow the same pattern: critical kills plus two Special Camo and Mastery Camo challenges. Examples include:
- C9: Purple Tiger (2000 Critical Kills), Infrared (30 Parasite Eliminations), Lynx (300 Eliminations while Pack-A-Punched), and subsequent Mastery Camos.
- The KSV, Tanto .22, PP-919, Jackal PDW, Kompakt 92, and Saug share this structure with unique challenge names and requirements.
Shotguns
Shotguns also require critical kills and completion of Special and Mastery Camo challenges. Examples include:
- Marine SP: Purple Tiger (2000 Critical Kills), Strawberry Mint (300 Eliminations at Rare Rarity or higher), Peel Out (300 Hipfire Kills), and subsequent Mastery Camos.
- The ASG-89 and Maelstrom follow a similar structure.
LMGs, Marksman Rifles, Sniper Rifles, Pistols, Launchers, and Melee Weapons
The remaining weapon classes (LMGs, Marksman Rifles, Sniper Rifles, Pistols, Launchers, and Melee Weapons) all adhere to the same fundamental camo progression system: critical kills followed by Special and Mastery Camo challenges. Each weapon within these classes has its own unique set of challenge names and requirements. Images are included for each weapon class to illustrate this.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. This article was updated on 12/19/2024 to reflect the latest camo and weapon additions.
