Black Ops 7 Zombies Map 'Ashes of the Damned' Main Quest Goes Live

The sprawling round-based map continues Black Ops 6's Zombies narrative in the Dark Aether.

Overview

  • The main quest unlocked on November 14 at 10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm GMT as guides began rolling out.
  • Early steps confirmed: start in Janus Towers Plaza, retrieve T.E.D.D.'s head from the Security/Server room, install it on Ol' Tessie, then drive to Vandorn Farm and Ashwood to clear growths and restore power.
  • Progression requires restoring power and activating the Pack-a-Punch machine, with Ol' Tessie upgrade options that include housing Pack-a-Punch.
  • The first Easter egg song brings back Kevin Sherwood and Elena Siegman, with details signaled by a Detonated teaser as in-game activation steps remain unverified.
  • IGN and PCGamesN list work-in-progress walkthroughs, and one documented a playful interaction where repeatedly shooting T.E.D.D. triggers a brief electrocution with no rewards.
