Ask any Call of Duty veteran for some tips and tricks for the Zombies mode and they will tell you that the Pack-A-Punch machine is paramount. That remains true to this day in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 which ramps up the difficulty with new zombies, maps, and challenges.
As the rounds go on, the undead will only get harder and harder to put down until your basic weapons will run dry before making a dent in the oncoming hordes. Only by upgrading them with the Pack-A-Punch can you keep up with the difficulty, but you need to track the machine down on each map first. Liberty Falls and Terminus have one upgrade station each that always appears in the same spot, but they’re not easy to reach. Here’s where and how to find each Pack-A-Punch machine in Black Ops 6.
How to find the Pack-A-Punch in Terminus
There are a couple of steps you need to take before you can even reach the Pack-A-Punch machine on Terminus, let alone use it. The main objective is to reach the Bio Lab area, which will require you to turn the power back on first. Keep in mind that you will need to spend Essence to unlock the path to these areas, but the objective markers will always show you the way. Here’s how that’s done.
Step 1: Go to the Living Quarters and locate the generator.
Step 2: Spend 500 Essence to activate it and a 30-second timer will start. You need to defend the timer as zombies attempt to destroy the generator.
Step 3: Find the second generator in the Living Quarters and follow the same steps as above.
Step 4: Repeat the process one last time with the generator at the Bio Lab.
If any generator gets destroyed while you’re defending it, you will need to finish the current round before you can try again.
Step 5: With all three generators active, your objective marker will now point you toward the flooded area below the Bio Lab. Dive into the water and activate the inclined lift that will raise the Pack-A-Punch up out of the water. Once done, you can climb up and use it.
How to find the Pack-A-Punch in Liberty Falls
The Pack-A-Punch in Liberty Falls is much more straightforward, but will take a lot more Essence to reach. As with the last machine, the objective markers will lead the way, but offers two paths. Here’s one of them:
Step 1: Spend 1,500 Essence to unlock the barrier under the Motor Lodge.
Step 2: Go down and into the bowling alley, and spend 1,750 Essence to unlock the door to the outside.
Step 3: Follow the path up the stairs to the church and open the next barrier for 2,000 Essence
Step 4: Approach the church doors and open the dimensional membrane with another 2,250 Essence.
Step 5: Go through the doors into the Dark Aether. Head to the back of the church, and you can access the Pack-A-Punch machine.
On both maps the Pack-A-Punch will cost the same amount of Essence to upgrade your guns up to three times. The upgrades cost 5,000, 15,000, and 30,000 Essence respectively.
