Call of Duty Black Ops 6 Zombies Exfiltration Guide: Tips and Strategies

In Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, the Zombies mode offers players a challenging round-based scenario. You will enter various maps where you can complete specific objectives and eventually get the chance to Exfil. However, this Exfil option doesn’t become available until you’ve made progress through several rounds, specifically becoming accessible after reaching certain milestones. This guide will detail the step-by-step process from initiating objectives to successfully executing an Exfil.

You can first avail the Exfil opportunity once you hit Round 11 in Black Ops 6 Zombies. During this round, both Raptor One on the Terminus map and Blanchard on Liberty Falls will indicate the availability of Exfil. Additionally, you’ll notice a handheld radio symbol appearing on the map following an announcement from the respective pilots.

If Round 11 progresses to Round 12 without you triggering the Exfil, you will miss your chance. After that, the Exfil will only become available every 5 rounds, specifically at rounds 16, 21, and so forth.

When you request extraction, a helicopter will arrive to assist your getaway. You will then have one minute and 30 seconds to get to the specified exfiltration zone, which is typically marked on your map.

Failing to reach the zone on time will result in a cut-scene where you’ll witness the helicopter being overwhelmed and destroyed by zombies.

If you do make it to the Exfil location in the allocated time, a new timer will start with an immediate objective. Typically, you will need to eliminate a minimum of 35 zombies within one minute, as the pilot indicates that the area beneath is ‘hot’ with adversaries.

Be aware that the required number of zombies to eliminate and your time limit may increase, especially as you go beyond round 30, increasing both the challenge and the numbers to take out.

Optimal Strategy for Exfil

Even if you opt for Exfil as early as Round 11, being adequately prepared is crucial. Relying solely on high-level Pack-a-Punched weapons won’t suffice — extra firepower is essential.

It’s advisable to craft supplemental Support and Tactical equipment using Salvage at the Crafting Table prior to initiating the Exfil. The following items will significantly enhance your ability to take down the 35 zombies in the limited time, which can prove a daunting task:

Hellstorm – available by default
Cymbal Monkey – unlocked at level 18
LDBR – unlocked at level 21
Decoy Grenade – unlocked at level 35
Chopper Gunner – unlocked at level 45

Employ all the resources at your disposal to ensure you can eliminate the zombies within the tight timeframe to successfully Exfil in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies.
