Mastering Camo Challenges in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies
The pursuit of camos is a cornerstone 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
Black Ops 6's camo progression differs from recent Call of Duty titles. It combines classic headshot-focused challenges with the base camo system from Modern Warfare 2 and Modern Warfare 3.
Zombies 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 its 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 acquired. 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.
Detailed Camo Challenges by Weapon Class
Below are the specific camo challenges for each weapon class in Black Ops 6 Zombies.
Assault Rifles

Each Assault Rifle requires achieving Critical Kills and completing two Special Camo Challenges and subsequent Mastery Camo Challenges. Examples include:
SMGs

SMGs follow a similar pattern: Critical Kills, then two Special Camo Challenges, followed by Mastery Camo Challenges. Examples include:
Shotguns

Shotguns also require Critical Kills, followed by Special and Mastery Camo Challenges. Examples include:
LMGs, Marksman Rifles, Sniper Rifles, Pistols, Launchers, and Melee Weapons

These weapon classes all follow the same basic progression: Critical Kills, Special Camo Challenges, and Mastery Camo Challenges. Specific challenges vary by weapon. Refer to the original article for the complete list of challenges for each individual weapon.
Special Weapon: Sirin 9mm
As of the Season 1 Mid-Season Reloaded update, the Sirin 9mm is the only Special weapon in Black Ops 6 Zombies, and it also follows the standard camo challenge progression.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. This article was updated on 12/19/2024 to include the latest camo and weapon additions.
