Forsaken — Black Ops Cold War Zombies Easter Egg Guide

Kill continuously as the rounds accelerate. Once the teleporter is charged, use it to stop the rapid opening pace and drop into the simulation.

• Rounds ramp up fast — keep killing
• Teleporter charge fills from kills
• Use it as soon as it is ready

Follow the route out to the Observation Tower exterior and into Anytown. On Main Street, collect the scattered teleporter parts from the immediate storefronts and install them.

• Parts spawn around the Main Street storefronts
• Install all parts to repair the teleporter
• Opens the route toward the tower and bunker

Open the route to the tower and Pack-a-Punch, then press the button opposite the bunker teleporter. This unlocks the Chrysalax build and later quest events.

• Pack-a-Punch is up in the Observation Tower
• Button sits opposite the bunker teleporter
• Enables Chrysalax components

Gather all three in any practical order. Burn a Tormentor with the Flamethrower and finish it while alight for the Tempered Crystal Heart; bait an Abomination lightning attack (or Tormentor explosion) into a large crystal for the Energetic Geode; and defend the crystal at Jim's Donuts to earn the Polymorphic Crystal Core.

• Tempered Crystal Heart — burnt Tormentor kill
• Energetic Geode — explosion into a large crystal
• Polymorphic Crystal Core — defend at Jim's Donuts (5 Plaguehounds, 3 Tempests, 2 Mimics)

Install the Heart, Geode and Core in the accelerator tub, then earn ten melee kills nearby to charge it. Collect the Chrysalax and switch between the Savager axe and Storm firearm forms as needed.

• Place all three parts in the tub
• Get 10 melee kills close to the tub
• Take the Chrysalax (Trials / Mystery Box can also grant it)

Activate the console(s) — every player at once, or the single solo interaction — to start the lockdown. Survive until the Fuel Tank can be collected.

• All players activate a console together
• Survive the lockdown
• Collect the Fuel Tank

At each large crystal, shoot the three orbiting orbs then melee the exposed core with the Chrysalax to drop a Crystal Shard into your tactical slot. Feed the shard into an open Abomination mouth mid-attack (its tail glows red on success), kill that target, and take the Catalyzed Shard. Repeat for all three.

• Crystal sites: Storage Zone 5 Rooftops, The Amplifier, Staging Area
• Shoot 3 orbs, then melee the core with the Chrysalax
• Throw the shard only while a mouth is open — tail glows red
• Recover all three Catalyzed Shards

Equip Dead Wire and get a kill with it beside the Grand Prix arcade cabinet to power it. Use an Arcade Token to drive the ARC-XD to the TV Store; let its pulse open the vent, drive in, wedge between the shelf and wall, and detonate to expose the Monitoring Device.

• Apply Dead Wire; get a kill by the Grand Prix cabinet
• Need an Arcade Token to launch the ARC-XD
• Drive to the TV Store; the pulse opens the vent
• Detonate at the shelf gap, then collect the Monitoring Device

Position an Abomination so its charge line faces the marked wall below the unit. Stand in line, dodge at the last moment, and let it smash the wall to drop the Housing Unit.

• Find the marked wall by the Board Room / Der Wunderfizz
• Line up the Abomination charge and dodge late
• Pick up the fallen Housing Unit

Assemble the Aetherium Neutralizer from the Fuel Tank, Monitoring Device, Housing Unit and crystal components. Finish all prep first — armour, perks, Pack-a-Punch, ammo, self-revive — then activate it. Stay inside its protective field, and break orange Dark Aether crystals to refuel whenever it stalls, until you reach the Containment Door.

• Build at the Main Street workbench near Tombstone
• Activation is the point of no return
• Stay in the protective field during the escort
• Break orange crystals to refuel; clear enemies blocking it
• Use the final buy area at the Containment entrance

The boss has four armour points — both shoulders, lower torso, and head. Kill zombies inside the glowing ring beneath Samantha to charge a laser cannon, mount it when she activates it, and hold the beam on the highlighted armour until it shatters. Break either shoulder first, then the other, then the lower torso, then the head (the Chrysalax Storm form also chips them); one charged cannon is worth about a quarter of its health. At zero health a scripted sequence downs the team and rolls the ending — this is the successful finish.

Watch its attacks: the eye beam is a sustained laser — break line of sight; tracking orbs home in — strafe to shake them; electric bolts leave a shock field — move off it; and don't stand in a slow field or next to its ground slam. Armour order & cannon reference.

• Charge cannons by killing inside the marked circle
• Order: both shoulders, lower torso, head
• Dodge the lightning slam; leave frost / blizzard zones
• Strafe the tracking orbs; break line of sight from the eye laser
• The scripted team down at zero HP is the ending, not a wipe
