The Ray Gun has long been a fan favorite in Zombies mode, known for its immense power and reliability against zombie hordes. First introduced in World at War, this iconic weapon is back in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’s Zombies mode. Here’s how you can increase your chances of snagging the Ray Gun on the new Liberty Falls and Terminus maps.
How to Get the Ray Gun in Black Ops 6 Zombies
There are three main ways to try to obtain the Ray Gun in Black Ops 6 Zombies mode. While none of these methods guarantee success, following these tips will give you the best chance:
1. Mystery Box
The Mystery Box is a classic method to obtain rare weapons, including the Ray Gun. At the start of each match, a box marked with a large question mark and a glowing light appears in a random location. As you unlock new areas, you’ll find other Mystery Box spots where you can spend 950 Essence to spin and try your luck.
The Mystery Box only remains at each location for a limited time, moving around the map after a few spins. This means your chances are random, and you might get the Ray Gun on your first attempt—or spend thousands of points with no luck. It’s all about chance, so keep trying!
2. Loot Keys
Defeating high-level enemies, like Manglers, can reward you with Loot Keys. These keys unlock exclusive safes in the Terminus Armory and Liberty Falls Vault, where you’ll find useful items and weapons, including a chance at the Ray Gun.
Items from these safes are random, ranging from upgrade materials to powerful gear. Keep an eye out for Elite enemies to earn Loot Keys and open these valuable safes—you might just find a Ray Gun waiting for you!
3. Gobblegums
New to Black Ops 6, Gobblegums are modifiers that offer special perks. Found in machines scattered around each map, they add an extra layer of strategy.
- Immolation Liquidation: This Gobblegum activates a Fire Sale, making Mystery Box spins nearly free.
- Respin Cycle: Allows you to re-spin the Mystery Box, potentially increasing the rarity of the item.
- Wonderbar!: Guarantees a Wonder Weapon on your next Mystery Box spin, which might include the Ray Gun.
While these Gobblegums don’t guarantee the Ray Gun, they can give you a better shot at landing one.
The Ray Gun’s Power Boost with Pack-A-Punch
The Ray Gun becomes even more powerful when upgraded through the Pack-A-Punch machine, transforming it into an unmatched zombie-slaying weapon. Keep this in mind as you work to obtain the Ray Gun—it’s worth the effort.
