Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's thrilling new game mode, Red Light, Green Light, a collaboration with Netflix's hit show Squid Game, pits players against each other in a deadly game of survival. Inspired by Young-hee's lethal camp, players must be the last one standing. This mode perfectly captures the intense suspense and high stakes of the original series, complete with the infamous fatal consequences for rule-breakers.
Gameplay mirrors the show's iconic challenge, requiring precision, timing, and strategic thinking. This guide provides a comprehensive walkthrough and tips to help you outmaneuver your opponents.
How to Play Red Light, Green Light in BO6
To begin, select the "Red Light, Green Light" playlist from the Black Ops 6 main menu. The objective: survive each wave by reaching the opposite end of the playing field. Remember to freeze completely when Young-hee stops singing and turns around. Only advance when she resumes singing and has her back turned.
Early rounds are relatively simple, but later rounds introduce a new element: blue squares containing knives. Collecting these allows you to eliminate nearby opponents, adding a layer of strategic combat to the already tense competition. Golden piggy banks scattered throughout the field award bonus XP, accelerating your progress towards event rewards.
Black Ops 6 Red Light, Green Light: Tips and Strategies
Surviving Young-hee's scrutiny requires absolute stillness. If using a controller, check for stick drift (where the analog stick registers movement even when untouched). This can be easily addressed by adjusting the Dead Zone settings in the controller options. Experiment with values between 5 and 10 (or higher, depending on your controller's condition) using the testing feature until both sticks register zero when at rest. Additionally, ensure your microphone is muted; the game detects sound as movement.
Patience is crucial. Before Young-hee stops singing, remain perfectly still (verify this via the on-screen indicator). While it's tempting to push your progress during the singing phase, rushing often leads to unintentional movement and elimination. Controlled, cautious advancement is key.
Success in Black Ops 6's Red Light, Green Light hinges on precise timing and preparation. A well-functioning controller and a muted microphone are essential. Avoid running in a straight line; it makes you a vulnerable target for knife attacks. By following these tips, you'll significantly improve your chances of victory in this thrilling Squid Game inspired challenge.
