How To Complete The Liberty Falls Main Easter Egg In Black Ops 6 Zombies

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’s Zombies mode has brought back the series’ highly-obscure easter egg hunts. Both of the game’s launch maps, Liberty Falls and Terminus, have lengthy main quest easter eggs you can uncover to unlock exclusive cosmetics and powerful in-game upgrades.

Liberty Falls has the easier of the two main easter eggs, but it’s still just as obscure as you’d expect from Zombies. This guide gives a step-by-step breakdown on how to complete this easter egg for both solo players and groups. We’ll also give a brief overview of the rewards you can expect to earn from completing the easter egg.

Easter Egg Prerequisites

Before you can start the Liberty Falls easter egg, there are a few conditions you need to meet first:

1. Unlock Pack-A-Punch. It’s required to access the Aether Device that’s closely tied with this quest. You’ll also want a Pack-A-Punched gun for later steps.
2. At least one player needs the Jet Gun. You can craft it or acquire one from the Mystery Box.
   • We’ll have a guide for crafting it soon. Stay tuned.
3. Get at least T2 Armor. While not a hard requirement, certain steps will swarm you with dozens of enemies. You’ll need this to survive.

It is worth noting that you can complete this entire easter egg solo. Make use of the Jet Gun’s alt-fire, bring a good explosive weapon, and you should be fine for most of these steps.

Create The LTG

Your first order of business is to create the LTG device. There are three parts you’ll need to acquire by using the Jet Gun’s primary fire. Find a vantage point where you can clearly see the component, then hold the Jet Gun’s primary fire until the object is pulled into your character. Repeat this for all three components.

Grabbing a part will pick it up for your entire squad.

Part #1 Location

The first part is in quadrant B6 on the map. You’ll want to enter the church and activate the Dark Aether device. This will eliminate all nearby Zombies and spawn additional debris above you. Face the entrance of the church and look up. You should see what looks like a floating top hat. Pull it towards you with the Jet Gun.

Part #2 Location

Make your way to quadrant F4/5 on the map. Next to the Speed Cola machine will be a white van. Climb up the nearby rooftops and jump onto the vehicle, then turn around so that you’re facing the buildings directly across from the bank. You’ll want to aim your Jet Gun at the open second-story window in Buzz’s Cuts. This item is quite far from your character, so you’ll need to hold the trigger for a few seconds before it reaches you.

Part #3 Location

The final LTG part is hidden in quadrant G3, the comic book store near the northern section of town. Enter the building and look at the gap in the ceiling to find the part. It’s directly above the middle counter that houses the second piece of the vault code.

Where To Assemble The LTG

Now that you have all three parts, make your way to the crafting bench at the top of the bank (quadrant F4). The bench will be in the corner of the rooftop. Assemble the parts and grab the LTG to start the next step.

Charge The First Canister

The next part of the easter egg is to charge two canisters for the Dark Aether device. Return to the church and grab the canister that’s sticking out of the device. There aren’t any message prompts for grabbing it; just hold the interact button. If done correctly, you’ll see a “drop Aether canister” prompt on your screen and lose the ability to sprint. Escort the canister to the Dark Aether trap outside of spawn (quadrant H5). You want to drop the canister next to a metal plate on the ground.

Once you have the canister in position, you can use the LTG to start the next step. Head to the Aether storm down the street and hold the interact button at the storm’s epicenter. This will deploy the LTG and trigger a timed defense section. You must defend the LTG against hordes of zombies for 60 seconds. Use the Jet Gun or any explosive weapons to kill any zombies that get near you. Do not let them destroy the device.

If done correctly, the LTG device will spawn an Abomination or Mauler. They’ll have red skin or armor, respectively. You must now escort the miniboss to the canister you dropped earlier. Activate the nearby Dark Aether trap, then kill the Abomination/Mauler while it’s inside the trap. So long as the canister is inside the trap’s AoE when it dies, the boss’ soul will charge the canister. You’ll also get a guaranteed Max Ammo power-up for your trouble.

Escort The Canister Back To The Church

Now that the canister is charged, you have 90 seconds to escort the canister back to the Aether device inside the church. The timer doesn’t start until you grab the canister, so make sure your team is ready before you start. We suggest you run through the bowling alley and climb up the nearby stairs to reach the church as quickly as possible. Interact with the Dark Aether device when you get there to deposit the canister.

Whoever is carrying the canister should equip their knife to increase their movement speed. This is especially useful if you have Stamin-Up active.

Calibrate The E-Field Machines

After you deposit the first canister, a new tactical item called the Strauss Counter will spawn next to the Aether device. Have one member of your team grab it.

Similar to the LTG step, there are three machines scattered across the map you need to calibrate. You’ll need to walk up to the machine and hold your tactical input to pull up the Strauss Counter. It’ll display one of three colors: green, red, or yellow. You must interact with the machine until it’s displaying the opposite color to what your Strauss Counter is showing.

• Red counter ⇾ green machine.
• Green counter ⇾ red machine.
• Yellow counter ⇾ yellow machine.

The colors you’ll get will be random, so remember the order above. You might have to interact with the machine a few times to get the correct color to appear.

E-Field Machine #1 Location

The first machine can be found in quadrant D4. Head to the toolshed that houses the Jet Gun’s handbrake component and walk a short distance east. The machine will be right next to the stairs.

E-Field Machine #2 Location

Another machine can be found in quadrant G5. Head to the bank and use any nearby grappling line to reach the roof. Once there, look for a place to drop down onto another rooftop—it’ll be to the right of the Der Wunderfizz machine. This lower rooftop is where you’ll find the second machine.

E-Field Machine #3 Location

You’ll find the last machine in quadrant E6. It’s on a small patch of grass that’s across from the PhD Flopper machine. Hop over the railing to find it.

Collect The LTG And Second Canister

If you calibrated all three machines correctly, they’ll emit Dark Aether energy that converges to a single point near spawn. Travel to the gas station on the eastern edge of the map to find the second canister. It’ll be in a machine that’s next to evac. You’ll want to grab the canister and escort it to the second Dark Aether trap that’s near Speed Cola (quadrant E4).

While you’re at it, make sure someone in your squad also grabs the LTG device you planted earlier. It’ll be in quadrant H4, the same place you summoned a miniboss earlier.

Charge The Second Canister

This is a repeat of the first canister step. Place the canister inside of the Dark Aether trap’s AoE before you start. This will make trapping the boss’ soul easier. Once ready, make your way to the second Aether storm on the map (quadrant C5). Place the LTG and defend it for another 60 seconds, ensuring it doesn’t get destroyed in the process.

Another Abomination or Mauler will spawn. Escort it down the street towards the Dark Aether trap. Flip on the trap, then kill the boss while it’s inside the trap’s AoE. If done correctly, the canister will charge with Dark Aether and wipe all nearby zombies. Grab the newly-charged canister and deposit it into the church. You have 90 seconds to do this, but you’re much closer to the church this time.

Activate The Aether Device

This step locks you inside the church. Make sure your squad is ready before proceeding.

With all three canister slots filled, it’s time to activate the device. When ready, interact with the Aether device inside the church to start the final step. You’ll need to survive three waves of zombies inside the church. There’s no way out, and each wave will throw increasingly more difficulty zombie types your way—mainly Maulers and Abominations.

There aren’t many tips we can give for this part outside of preparation. You’ll want to upgrade the Jet Gun or have an explosive weapon on standby. Some good options include the HE-1, the GSP45, or the LR 7.62. Those last two weapons become explosive when Pack-A-Punched and scale incredibly well into higher rounds. Focus on killing Maulers immediately, then Abominations, then the fodder units. So long as you frequently reposition around the church, you should be able to keep the chaotic spawns under control. Clear all three waves to finish the easter egg.

Easter Egg Rewards

Completing the Liberty Falls easter egg unlocks the Ray Gun PJ-SRU skin, a Liberty Falls-themed calling card, and awards a small bundle of XP. These rewards are unlocked across your entire account, so you can wear this calling card in multiplayer and zombies.

If you choose not to extract upon completing the easter egg, you’ll also be awarded with every perk on the map and a small cache of Legendary-tier weapons. None of these weapons are Pack-A-Punched though. Those rewards last until the end of your current match; they don’t carry over to future games.
