With a new mission at hand, the Black Ops 6 Zombies characters are prepared to battle endless waves of the undead and seek justice for their unjust imprisonment.
Black Ops 6 Zombies reintroduces familiar faces from the Cold War era, while also bringing an intriguing new character into the mix.
In this article, we explore the playable characters in the round-based Zombies mode and delve into their backgrounds.
Meet the playable Black Ops 6 Zombies characters — the Terminus Team
Under the orders of Project Director Edward Richtofen, the Requiem team from Black Ops Cold War was imprisoned for six years at Terminus Island.
This secluded Black Site in the Philippine Sea serves as one of the launch maps for Black Ops 6 Zombies.
Three prominent members of Requiem—Grigori Weaver, Dr. Elizabeth Grey, and Mackenzie “Mac” Carver—make a comeback as playable characters in Black Ops 6 Zombies.
Joining the returning trio and completing the Terminus Team is a fresh face named Maya Aguinaldo.
Grigori Weaver
The commander of Requiem, Weaver, is a former CIA agent who is still haunted by the failures of his past. His experiences have hardened him, but he remains a crucial part of the team.
The grizzled veteran is dead set on confronting and exposing the deceit and hidden agendas of Richtofen.
Elizabeth Grey
No longer a meek and naive scientist, Grey has undergone a physical and mental transformation. She is now ready for frontline action.
Her intelligence and expertise are invaluable in this new mission.
Mac Carver
The once-proud military man has fallen from grace but remains determined to search for redemption and justice.
Carver’s determination and combat skills are still intact, making him a formidable force.
Maya Aguinaldo
A skilled Filipino smuggler with a mysterious past, Maya is driven by a desperate search for her missing brother.
Her resourcefulness and street smarts make her a valuable asset to the team.
Here are additional characters central to the story who may become playable in the future:
- Edward Richtofen: The enigmatic and often villainous mastermind of the Black Ops Zombies universe. Revealed as the Director of Requiem, he orchestrated their imprisonment at Terminus. His return in BO6 Zombies promises to be a pivotal moment in the ongoing saga, as players confront his unpredictable actions and the true extent of his influence.
- Dr. William Peck: A former antagonist from Black Ops Cold War Zombies, now driven by a desire for revenge against Richtofen. He is responsible for freeing Requiem from prison and introducing Maya to the team.
- Stoney “Raptor One” Maddox: A dedicated member of Requiem known for his military expertise and unwavering loyalty, though his past experiences continue to haunt him.
- Oskar Strauss: Another Requiem member, skilled in Dark Aether research. His deteriorating mental state due to imprisonment poses a significant challenge to the team.
Hero character interaction in Black Ops 6 Zombies
In a recent trailer, the game developers unveiled a new feature called hero character interaction, where characters engage in dialogue during gameplay, offering deeper insights into their relationships and backstories. This enhancement creates a more immersive and engaging experience for players.
They also mentioned that while players can choose to use other operators, the narrative experience will differ from that of playing as the Terminus Team.
