Friends and YouTubers have been raving about Zombies in Black Ops 6, so I dived in this week.

And boy did I struggle!

I’ve never really played any of the Call of Duty: Zombies titles, but I’m hooked now.

Even in Directed Mode, as a complete noob, I kept failing.

I’m not familiar with the mechanics or just how to play Zombies in general.

It’s only available currently on Liberty Falls and Terminus, but it will help you out so much.

Directed Mode on Terminus in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies.

Directed Mode will hold your hand through the main quest on each map.

Citadelle des Morts will get Directed Mode at a later date.

You’ll also be capped at round 15, so things won’t gettoocrazy.

I say easy, but it’s still not if you’ve never played Zombies before.

The Perkaholic Gobblegum in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies

The Perkaholic Gobblegum will give you all the perks available without having to spend Essence on them, and it’ll turn you into a powerhouse immediately.

Then I finally had a look at my Gobblegum stash, and that changed the game entirely.

The two main ones I used are both Ultra rarity (the red ones).

The combination of both, though, turned constant failure into immediate success.

The first isPerkaholic(pictured above).

Popping this will apply all available perks to you all at once.

The other Ultra Gobblegum I used in conjunction with Perkaholic isHidden Power.

The Extended Mag III attachment for the XM4 gives it a 100 round magazine.

The Extended Mag III attachment for the XM4 gives it a 100 round magazine, which when Pack-A-Punched doubles to 200.

Not even those pesky Manglers that keep showing up from round 11. you’re able to still buy perks around the map, anyway.

The other one I could recommend to make getting through it a little easier is Wall Power.

This Gobblegum makes it, so the next weapon wall buy you make comes with Pack-A-Punch already applied.

Speaking of weapons, I applied Hidden Power to the XM4.

A little boring, I know, but with good reason.

So, that’s all there is to it.
