We’re so back—Black Ops 6 Zombies gets much-needed Pack-a-Punch weapons buffs
Pack-a-Punch is meant to make weapons go wild, but some, like the Marine SP, Maelstrom, and Goblin Mk2, just didn't live up to the hype. Lucky for us, Black Ops 6 Season 3 Reloaded swoops in with the buffs they've been begging for, making the camo grind way more epic. I'll be honest: I avoided the Marine SP like the plague because the ASG-89 was just that much more promising. The real issue with the Marine SP was its painfully slow reload, which didn't exactly match the fast-paced Zombies vibe. However, with Season 3 Reloaded, it achieves a lightning-fast reload with a single gesture. Maybe I'll finally give this shotgun a shot and actually have some fun with it. Image via Activision While the Marine SP benefits from slick new handling upgrades, both the Maelstrom shotgun and Goblin Mk2 have stepped up with their hit rates. Both received significant damage boosts to their PAP versions, with damage rates generally increasing by 50 percent. The Goblin Mk2 even doubles its damage by Pack-a-Punch Level 3. With buffs like these, they're definitely worth the grind, making it a lot more satisfying to mow down hordes in Terminus, Shattered Veil, and The Tomb. The weapon buffs are a huge win this season, but there's more to get excited about with the Ray Gun Mark 2 now available on all maps. Previously limited to Shattered Veil, it's finally joining the fight elsewhere. I'm curious to see how it performs against the lineup of Zombies bosses—it could definitely change how players tackle the Main Quests. Meanwhile, Zombies is getting even wackier with the new mode, Zombie Snacks. As part of Call of Duty's 4/20 event, you'll need to munch on snacks to stay energized. It'll make this undead mode more challenging than it already is, but hey, at least you get some GobbleGums for trying. With all the new Zombies features in Black Ops 6 Season 3 Reloaded, now's the perfect time to dive back into the undead chaos. The big question now is whether we'll see a new map in Season 4, especially with the recent reveal of Janus Towers. If Season 3 Reloaded is any indication, Season 4 is gearing up to be something special for Zombies fans.
