Mastering the Black Ops 6 Emergence Mission: A Comprehensive Guide

The Emergence mission in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 marks the campaign's midpoint and represents a significant departure from traditional gameplay. This guide provides a detailed walkthrough.

Navigating the Kentucky BioTech Facility

The mission begins with Case and Marshall entering a Kentucky BioTech facility filled with toxic gas, necessitating gas masks. An elevator malfunction leads to a fall, gas mask breakage, and subsequent hallucinations. The player regains control after a cutscene.

Unlocking the Security Desk

Locate a locked red-lit door. Use a hatchet found on a mannequin to pry it open. Proceed through the hallway, up the stairs, and to a central elevator. Activating the elevator triggers a zombie transformation of the mannequins. Eliminate them with the hatchet. A phone call from the circular desk directs you to the biotechnology room, requiring four director's cards (Red, Green, Blue, Yellow). A map indicates the Yellow card's location.

Acquiring the Yellow Card and Grappling Hook

From the security console, follow the map to a yellow staircase. Solve the computer puzzle in the Director's office (answers: "Access" and "Lift"). Eliminate more zombies in the A.C.R. room. Approaching the mannequin holding the Yellow card transforms it into an abomination.

Before engaging the abomination, gather armor plates, weapons, and the crucial grappling hook. Use explosives (C4 or grenades) to efficiently eliminate the abomination and its zombie horde. Retrieve the Yellow Card.

Securing the Green Card

Use the grappling hook to ascend to the main facility. Locate the Administration Facility using the grappling hook from the security desk. Answer the ringing phone. Find four documents and place them in the file display area. While collecting documents, mannequins will pursue; sprinting maintains distance. Document locations: corner desk, left side near a round table, small center table near a noticeboard, and in the cafe near a sink. Defeat the resulting Mangler Zombie to obtain the Green Card.

Obtaining the Blue Card

Grapple across to the Joint Projects Facility. Answer the phone. Locate the glass chamber with camera stands; interacting with the Blue Card spawns a Mimic. Shoot moving objects to lure and eliminate the Mimic, then collect the Blue Card.

Retrieving the Red Card

Follow the red carpets in the East Wing to a room with water, a console, and a Mangler. Interact with the console to reveal the Red Card. Use the grappling hook to reach the upper area, swim through the red tunnel, and climb the ladders. Eliminate zombies and unlock the door using the blacklight code. Drain the water within 25 seconds by activating three switches (one in the initial room, one in the unlocked room, and one accessed via grappling hook). Defeat the Mangler and its horde to obtain the Red Card.

Confronting the Disciple

Insert all four cards into the security desk. Ride the elevator to the top floor. Eliminate any pursuing zombies. Answer the red phone. Engage and defeat the Disciple and the zombie horde in the ensuing confrontation. The mission concludes with a hallucination reveal.
