Mastering Camo Challenges in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies
The pursuit of camos is a core element of the annual 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
Camo progression in Black Ops 6 Zombies differs from recent Call of Duty titles. It combines classic headshot-based camo challenges (reminiscent of the Xbox 360 era) with the base camo system from Modern Warfare 2 and Modern Warfare 3.
Players must achieve specific kill milestones with each weapon (varying by weapon class) to unlock nine "Military Camos." These must be earned individually for each weapon. Unlocking all Military Camos for a weapon unlocks unique Special Camo challenges. These Special Camos (two per weapon) can be completed in any order and, once unlocked, can be applied to any weapon with all Military Camos completed. Completing both Special Camos unlocks the first Mastery Camo challenge, leading to the Mystic Gold camo.
Unlocking Opal and Afterlife camos requires completing Mystic Gold challenges for a set number of weapons in each class. Subsequently, completing the Opal Camo challenge for 33 weapons unlocks the Afterlife Camo challenges and the final Nebula Camo challenges. Remember, Mastery Camos are weapon-specific.
