Call of Duty Zombies returns with a fresh take in Black Ops 6, as Treyarch aims to create an engaging experience that honors the beloved aspects of the franchise while introducing exciting new features.
Among these innovations is the concept of Augments, a pivotal element enhancing the Zombies gameplay in BO6. To maximize your chances in quests, uncovering Easter eggs, or surviving high-round encounters, understanding Augments becomes essential.
Here’s a comprehensive overview of Augments in BO6 Zombies.
What are Augments in BO6 Zombies?
Augments in BO6 Zombies enhance key items, such as Perks, Ammo Mods, and Field Upgrades. Each item type has a unique research pathway users can explore through the pre-game menu between matches.
Treyarch explained the purpose of Augments, stating, “They are designed to establish a rich progression path while allowing players to research benefits tailored to their preferred play styles.” The developers encourage experimentation with different Augments to discover how they synergize with each item and team strategies, providing a deeper gameplay experience.
Every item features six Augments: three Minor Augments that offer limited advantages during use, and three Major Augments, which provide significant benefits when active.
How to use Augments in BO6 Zombies
Researching Augments unlocks at player level 11. Once players unlock specific Augments, they are able to select them before commencing a match for their chosen items—Perks, Ammo Mods, or Field Upgrades.
Treyarch noted, “Building on successful strategies from earlier matches, players can focus on researching the Dark Flare Field Upgrade. As you unlock Minor and Major Augments, you enhance the capabilities of this upgrade significantly.” After full research, players will have access to three Minor and three Major Augments for selection.
Before starting each match, players can choose one Minor and one Major Augment for each item, with the option to switch these in between matches.
