The Emergence Mission in Black Ops 6 marks a pivotal moment in the acclaimed Call of Duty campaign, offering a unique departure from traditional gameplay. Here’s a comprehensive guide to navigate through this intense mission.
Finding the Security Desk in Black Ops 6 Emergence
From the outset, players are immersed in chaos as Case and Marshall infiltrate the Kentucky BioTech facility, enveloped in toxic gases necessitating gas masks. The mission quickly escalates when the elevator malfunctions, plummeting to the ground floor and shattering your gas mask, triggering hallucinations and a cutscene.
Once control is regained, navigate through the debris to a locked door marked by a red light. Use the hatchet lodged in a nearby mannequin to force it open. Proceed right into a hallway, exit through an open door, and ascend the stairs in the main hall to reach a central elevator.
Interacting with the elevator triggers a hallucination, transforming mannequins into zombies. Dispatch them using your hatchet. A ringing phone at the circular desk then guides you to the biotechnology room, which requires four director’s cards: Cognitive Research Facility (Red), Administration (Green), Joint Projects (Blue), and A.C.R. (Yellow). A map directs you to the Yellow Card.
Finding the Yellow Card and Grappling Hook in Black Ops 6 Emergence
Starting from the security console, head left as per the map's guidance to a yellow staircase on the left side of the screen. Ascend to the Director’s office and interact with the computer to solve a puzzle using the keywords "Access" and "Lift." Upon entering the A.C.R. room, confront more zombies.
After clearing the area, the camera focuses on a mannequin holding the Yellow Card. Approaching it triggers a transformation into an abomination, familiar to Black Ops 6 Zombies players. Before engaging, explore the vicinity to gather armor plates, weapons, and the essential grappling hook.
Use tactical explosives like C4 or grenades to swiftly defeat the abomination and its spawned zombies, then retrieve the Yellow Card from its remains.
Finding the Green Card in Black Ops 6 Emergence
Equip the grappling hook to exit the A.C.R. room by grappling onto ledges to return to the main facility. From the security desk, look left towards the elevator to find a spot to grapple up to the Administration Facility. Answer the ringing phone and proceed to collect four documents, placing them in the file display area against the glass wall.
While gathering the documents, be wary of mannequins that mimic a horror game's eerie pursuit. They freeze when you turn around, so sprint to maintain distance. The documents are located:
- On a desk in the corner.
- Near a round table on the left side.
- On a small table in the center next to a noticeboard.
- In the cafe near a sink.
After arranging the documents, a red mannequin attacks. Use the grappling hook to subdue it multiple times until it transforms into a Mangler Zombie. Defeating it yields the Green Card.
Finding the Blue Card in Black Ops 6 Emergence
From the Administration Wing balcony, grapple across to the Joint Projects Facility. Answer another ringing phone, then explore the area to find camera stands around a glass chamber. Attempting to take the Blue Card summons a mimic.
To defeat the mimic, shoot moving objects in the room to force it to reappear. After its demise, collect the Blue Card and return to the main area for the final Red Card.
Finding the Red Card in Black Ops 6 Emergence
From the security console, follow the map's East Wing directions along red carpets to a series of stairs leading to a water-filled room with a console and a trapped Mangler. Interact with the console to reveal the Red Card.
Use the grappling hook to ascend, then swim through a red tunnel behind the Mangler to reach ladders on the other side. Climb up, clear zombies, and use a blacklight to unlock a door. The code is unique to each player.
Activate the console in the opposite room to start a 25-second timer. Turn off the drain switches: one in the starting room, another in the newly unlocked room, and the last reached via the grappling hook. Drain the water, follow the Mangler's escape route, and defeat it along with the zombie horde to obtain the Red Card.
Defeating the Disciple in Black Ops 6 Emergence
Return to the security desk and insert all four cards to activate the elevator. Fight off zombies as you ascend, and upon reaching the top, your screen will go black, revealing only a red phone. Answering it triggers a cinematic leading to the BioTech room, where you face endless zombies and a Disciple. Defeating them leads to another cinematic revealing the entire ordeal as a hallucination, with Marshall and Sev attempting to revive you, concluding the mission.
This guide encapsulates the thrilling journey through the Black Ops 6 Emergence mission, offering players a detailed roadmap to success.
