How To Find the Pack-a-Punch on The Tomb in Black Ops 6 Zombies

Author:Kristen Update:Mar 15,2025

In *Call of Duty* Zombies, the Pack-a-Punch machine is your ticket to significantly upgrading your weapons. However, finding it in *Black Ops 6*'s new map, The Tomb, requires a bit more legwork than in previous maps like Terminus or Citadelle des Morts.

How to Find the Pack-a-Punch Machine in The Tomb

Pack-a-Punch Location

Your journey begins with the "Doorway to Nowhere." This teleporter, located in the Subterranean Temple area (easily accessible by progressing through the map), is your gateway to the Dark Aether nexus. To activate it, simply interact with the altar using the Amulet—you'll start each match with it, so no searching required. Once the doorway opens, step through to the Dark Aether Nexus.

Initially, the Pack-a-Punch machine resides within the Dark Aether Nexus, near the center. But here's the twist: its location isn't static. To keep upgrading your arsenal, you'll need to know where to find it.

All Pack-a-Punch Locations and How to Track Them

Pack-a-Punch Locations

The Pack-a-Punch machine has two possible locations in The Tomb. Its first appearance is always in the Dark Aether Nexus. However, it will later relocate to a second spot: the Roman Mausoleum, an ornate ruin atop the Dig Site.

To pinpoint its current location, utilize your Tac-Map. The main map and the Dark Aether Nexus have separate Tac-Maps. If the Pack-a-Punch icon isn't on one map, it's on the other. Alternatively, a stone slab with illuminated sections displays the Pack-a-Punch's location. If the symbol is on the main map section of the slab, head to the corresponding area. If it's on the separate island section, it's in the Dark Aether Nexus.
