With a new mission ahead of them, the Black Ops 6 Zombies characters are ready to fight endless waves of the undead and seek justice for their wrongful imprisonment.
Black Ops 6 Zombies brings back familiar faces from the Cold War era while adding an intriguing new character.
In this article, we explore the playable characters in the turn-based Zombies mode and go into their backgrounds.
Meet the Black Ops 6 Zombies playable characters – The Terminus Team
On the orders of Project Leader Edward Richtofen, Black Ops Cold War’s Requiem team was held captive on Terminus Island for six years.
This remote Black Site in the Philippine Sea serves as one of the starting maps for Black Ops 6 Zombies.
Three prominent members of Requiem – Grigori Weaver, Dr. Elizabeth Grey and Mackenzie “Mac” Carver – make a comeback as playable characters in Black Ops 6 Zombies.
A new face named Maya Aguinaldo joins the returning trio and completes the Terminus team.
Grigori Weaver
Requiem’s commander, Weaver, is a former CIA agent still haunted by the mistakes of his past. His experiences have toughened him, but he remains an important part of the team.
The grizzled veteran is determined to confront and expose Richtofen’s deceptions and hidden intentions.
Elisabeth Gray
No longer a meek and naive scientist, Grey has undergone a physical and mental transformation and is now ready for deployment on the front lines.
Their intelligence and expertise are invaluable to this new mission.
Mac Carver
The once proud soldier has fallen from grace, but remains determined to seek redemption and justice.
Carver’s determination and fighting skills are still unbroken, making him a formidable force.
Maya Aguinaldo
Maya, a skilled Filipino smuggler with a mysterious past, is driven by a desperate search for her missing brother.
Her ingenuity and cleverness make her a valuable asset to the team.
Here are other characters central to the story that may be playable in the future:
- Edward Richtofen: The enigmatic and often malevolent mastermind of the Black Ops Zombies universe. As the director of Requiem, he was revealed to be the mastermind behind the capture at Terminus. His return in BO6 Zombies promises to be a turning point in the ongoing saga, as players will be confronted with his unpredictable actions and the true extent of his influence.
- Dr. William Peck: A former antagonist from Black Ops Cold War Zombies who is now driven by a desire for revenge against Richtofen. He is responsible for breaking Requiem out of prison and introducing Maya to the team.
- Stoney “Raptor One” Maddox: A dedicated member of Requiem, known for his military expertise and unwavering loyalty, even though his past experiences still haunt him.
- Oscar Strauss: Another Requiem member who specializes in researching the Dark Aether. His deteriorating mental state due to imprisonment poses a significant challenge to the team.
Hero-Character Interaction in Black Ops 6 Zombies
In a recent trailer, the game developers introduced a new feature called “Hero Character Interaction,” which allows characters to engage in dialogue during gameplay, providing deeper insights into their relationships and backstories. This improvement creates a more intense and exciting gaming experience for players.
They also mentioned that while players will have the option to use other operators, the narrative experience will be different from playing as the Terminus team.
