Key Takeaways
- Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 features divisive paid Mastercraft skins for operators and weapons.
- Some players dislike the garish Mastercraft bullets and obnoxious death animations.
- It’s possible to turn off these animations in Settings to avoid humiliation during gameplay.
Following its launch, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 introduced a bunch of paid skins for operators and weapons. Then, as part of the game’s first season, they added more. It’s safe to assume that going forward, there are plenty more in the works. These skins have, as is so often the case, divided the Call of Duty community.
While a large percentage of players have purchased them to jazz up their gameplay, others have not taken to them so kindly, with some going as far as saying they’d pay not to see them in the game.

The update also reset some players’ solo Zombies data.
One of the best (or worst, depending on which side of the fence you sit) things about these skins, known as Mastercrafts, is that they fire garish bullets that result in frankly obnoxious death animations.
Thankfully, if you’re a hater, one Call of Duty player has shared a way to turn off these animations if you’re on the receiving end of them.
You Don’t Have To See Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6’s Mastercraft Kill Animations
As shared on Reddit by player Playful-Team-1634, there is a way to stop yourself from being humiliated by some of Black Ops 6’s more outlandish kills.
By going to Settings, then Account, you’ll find a “Gore Effects” option. You can choose disable this, meaning you’ll no longer have to suffer through the Mastercraft weapons animations.
In doing this, those who have spent money to look silly will still get the pleasure of seeing you disintegrate, but you yourself will be spared.
So far, there are three pretty jarring examples of this in Black Ops 6. The Blackcell weapons see players burst into flames and explode, the Draconic Forge weapons see players disintegrate into green flames, and IDead mastercraft turns players into paint, paint cans, and Gobblegums upon killing them. We don’t blame you if you want to turn them off.
Forced to go rogue. Hunted from within. This is Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
Developed by Treyarch and Raven, Black Ops 6 is a spy action thriller set in the early 90s, a period of transition and upheaval in global politics, characterized by the end of the Cold War and the rise of the United States as a single superpower. With a mind-bending narrative, and unbound by the rules of engagement, this is signature Black Ops.
The Black Ops 6 Campaign provides dynamic moment-to-moment gameplay that includes a variety of play spaces with blockbuster set pieces and action-packed moments, high-stakes heists, and cloak-and-dagger spy activity.
In a best-in-class Multiplayer experience, players will test their skills across 16 new maps at launch, including 12 core 6v6 maps and 4 Strike maps that can be played 2v2 or 6v6.
Black Ops 6 also marks the epic return of Round-Based Zombies, the fan-favorite mode where players will take down hordes of the undead in two brand-new maps at launch. Post-launch, players can look forward to even more exciting maps and groundbreaking experiences dropping into both Multiplayer and Zombies.
