What are Augments in Black Ops 6 Zombies?
Augments are powerful gameplay enhancements that can be unlocked and applied to every Perk-a-Cola, Ammo Mod, and Field Upgrade in the game.
They offer a dynamic and innovative way to customize your loadout, enabling you to tailor your abilities and tools to suit your playstyle. This system adds depth to the game by allowing players to invest in research and upgrades between matches, fostering strategic planning and progression.
There are 126 Augments available to unlock and equip, divided as follows:
- Perk-a-Colas: Nine, each with six Augments (54)
- Ammo Mods: Six, each with six Augments (36)
- Field Upgrades: Six, each with six Augments (36)
Each item features two distinct Augment slots: one designated for a Major Augment and the other for a Minor Augment.
For each item, you can choose from three available Major Augments. These provide significant enhancements, often altering the item’s behavior in impactful ways during its use.
Each item offers a selection of three Minor Augments. These deliver more subtle advantages, offering smaller but meaningful improvements to the item’s performance, typically during its usage.
