In Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, the iconic Nuketown map is back with a cool Easter Egg variant. This guide will tell you how to unlock it.
Nuketown has become a key part of the Call of Duty Black Ops series, and on November 24, it returns as “Nuketown ‘84.” The map is packed with close-quarter action and includes a special Easter egg you can unlock.
How to Unlock the Black Ops Cold War Nuketown ’84 Easter Egg
The first footage of the Easter egg was uploaded by Redditor PimpOutMyPc (via Eurogamer). The Easter egg involves shooting the heads off all the mannequins around the map. In the previous Nuketown map, you had to do this within the first two minutes of the match, but it’s unclear if the time limit in Nuketown ‘84 is the same.
After shooting all the mannequin heads off, the visual of the map changes, and a sweet blue 80s-themed aesthetic filter is applied to the graphics. An 80s synth-wave track also starts playing in the background. The filter resembles the one in Far Cry 3’s Blood Dragon spinoff.
This Easter egg is one of the coolest compared to previous COD games. In COD: Black Ops 4, the Easter egg launched a missile into the sky that opened a portal, causing zombie-like mannequins to fall onto the map.
In Black Ops 3’s futuristic Nuketown, shooting the heads brought the robot mannequins to life, and they attacked like real zombies.
If you purchase COD: Black Ops Cold War by December 4, you will receive the Nuketown Weapon 10-item bundle for free.
