The Black Ops 6 Season 01 Reloaded update delivers a significant boost for Zombies fans, headlined by the new Citadelle des Morts map. Beyond the map, several exciting additions enhance the gameplay experience. This breakdown details the new Perk, Ammo Mod, and Field Upgrade.
Vulture Aid Perk and Augments:
A returning perk from Black Ops 2's Buried, Vulture Aid enhances scavenging. Found in Citadelle des Morts's Perk Machine and Der Wunderfizz on Terminus and Liberty Falls, it increases the chance of slain zombies dropping ammo and Essence. Augments further customize its effects:

Light Mend Ammo Mod and Augments:
This innovative Ammo Mod, debuting alongside Citadelle des Morts (and available on Terminus, Liberty Falls, and future maps), shifts the focus from zombie damage to player defense and healing. Light elemental damage inflicted by bullets creates healing glyphs that move to injured allies. Augments offer further customization:
