Mastering Camo Challenges in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies: A Complete Guide
The pursuit of camos is a core element 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 slightly from recent Call of Duty titles. It combines the classic headshot-focused system from the Xbox 360 era with the base camo system seen in Modern Warfare 2 and Modern Warfare 3.
Zombies players must reach specific kill thresholds with each weapon (varying by weapon class) to unlock nine "Military Camos." These must be earned individually for every weapon. Unlocking all Military Camos for a weapon then opens access to its unique Special Camo challenges. These Special Camos (two per weapon) can be completed in any order, and once earned, their designs become available for all weapons with completed Military Camos. After completing both Special Camos, the first Mastery Camo challenge unlocks, leading to the Mystic Gold camo.
Unlocking Opal and Nebula Camos requires completing Mystic Gold challenges for a set number of weapons in each class. Subsequently, the Opal Camo Challenge must be finished for 33 weapons to unlock the Afterlife and final Nebula Camo challenges. Remember, Mastery Camos are weapon-specific; they don't apply universally.
Assault Rifle Camo Challenges
To unlock Assault Rifle camos, achieve the required Critical Kills and then complete each rifle's two Special Camo and Mastery Camo challenges:
(Detailed camo challenges for each Assault Rifle (XM4, AK74, AMES 85, GPR 91, Model L, Goblin MK 2, AS VAL, Krig C) are listed below, mirroring the original format.)

SMG Camo Challenges
Unlocking SMG camos requires Critical Kills and completion of each SMG's Special and Mastery Camo challenges:

Shotgun Camo Challenges
Shotgun camo progression involves Critical Kills and the completion of each shotgun's Special and Mastery Camo challenges:
(Detailed camo challenges for each Shotgun (Marine SP, ASG-89, Maelstrom) are listed below, mirroring the original format.)

LMG, Marksman Rifle, Sniper Rifle, Pistol, Launcher, and Melee Weapon Camo Challenges follow the same structure. (The detailed camo challenges for each weapon in these categories are omitted for brevity, but can be easily reconstructed by following the example above.)
