Hi guys,

here is how to activate the Robot Mech Easter egg in Kowakujo zombies map, within Call of Duty Black Ops 7.

Once we activate this, it can then be rebought later on in zombie rounds for a total of 1750 credits, that will allow you to take down zombies with ease, for a limited amount of time.



It is very powerful and has a cool Godzilla style battle cut scene between and ABOMINATION special zombie and a ZURSA BEAR, over a small Japanese village.

You of course, have to intervene when you activate this mechanical mech suit, in order to destroy them and save the village.

Then from that point on, you will be able to purchase this suit in the game again from the KLAUS CORE.

Let's see how we can activate this piece of amazing robotic machinery.

This robot is going to cost an arm and a leg....double in fact!

We first need to head over to the FLOWER GARDEN area of the map and where the MOLTEN LAVA STREAM flows through here. 

It flows underneath the broken bridge and out into the sea of lava, just past the WISP TEA PERK MACHINE.





What we are waiting here for is for ROCKS to float by in the lava.

When we see a rock, simply shoot it and destroy it. What we are hoping to see once we destroy several of these rocks is a ROBOTIC ARM or LEG appearing that we can pick up.



There will not be one robot part in every rock we destroy, so we may get a few dud and empty rocks as we wait on one that actually contains a robotic arm or leg. 



What we need to do is keep destroying these rocks until we have collected 4 PIECES of the ROBOT.

Once we have these 4 pieces, we then need to head over to the left of where the WISP TEA PERK MACHINE is located, just a tiny bit to the left of the EXFIL BOOTH, there will be another 5th PART OF THE ROBOT on the edge of the lava bank.

This will appear only once you have the other 4 pieces collected from the destroyed floating LAVA ROCKS.




Interact with this last piece and an UBER KLAUS will spawn in, flying up from underneath the river of lava  in the background, which you will have to destroy.


Once he is destroyed, you should be able to interact with the KLAUS ROBOT and you will be taken into the mini cut scene where the ABOMINATION and the ZURSA BEAR spawn in and an epic showdown begins.





You will wait a few seconds as you watch each of the special enemies spawn in, then you will drop from the sky in a MECHANICAL ROBOTIC SUIT with an insane amount of firepower, to destroy the both of these special enemies.

They are not hard to destroy, now that you have been given the correct tools top dispose of them, but when you do destroy them, you will be then be teleported back to the main map.




Then, in the FLOWER GARDEN, you will be able to purchase this RHINO SCORESTREAK from the dead KLAUS CORE ROBOT in this area, for a total of 1750 credits.

Thanks for reading as always guys.

Kowakujo Unlock Secret Gacha Machine Easter egg - Black Ops 7 Zombies

Hi guys,

If you've been exploring every hidden secret on Kowakujō in Black Ops 7 Zombies, you've probably heard players talking about the mysterious Gacha Machine. This hidden side Easter egg gives you the chance to earn permanent weapon charms with unique gameplay effects but there's a catch. You only get one spin per round, and the reward is completely random.

Some of the charms are incredibly useful, while others... well, let's just say you might wish you'd saved your spin.



Here's everything we currently know about unlocking the Gacha Machine, how it works, and every confirmed weapon charm available so far.

How to Unlock the Gacha Machine

Before you can start spinning for rewards, you'll need to unlock the machine first. Thankfully, it's a fairly straightforward Easter egg once you know where to go.

  • Wait for a Dark Aether Fissure

First, wait until a Dark Aether fissure appears near the Double Tap perk machine in the Kitchens area.




  • Enter the Euphoric State

Head over to the Cherry Blossom Tree and melee it three times. This will activate the Euphoric state, which is shown by a pink aura surrounding your operator.




Find the Hidden Machine

While you're still Euphoric, make your way to the Kitchen Courtyard, next to the Arsenal. Melee the hidden Gacha Machine to activate the Easter egg. 





It is actually hiding inside a WOODEN BARREL that when you melee it 2 or 3 times, will break open to reveal it.

Collect the Yellow Orbs

Now the machine is visible, melee the machine several more times and a yellow orb will appear. It will fly around the map somewhere, until eventually crashing into the ground and creating a YELLOW CIRCLE on the floor.

Simply walk through this CIRCLE and the YELLOW ORB will take off again and move to a new location on the map.






Walk through the yellow circle, then continue collecting each new yellow orb that spawns, when it moves to its newer location.

You'll need to collect roughly eight yellow orbs in total.

You need to complete going through all of the YELLOW CIRCLES, while keeping your over charged health ABOVE 250 HITPOINTS. 

When you fall below 250, you are no longer over charged, so you need to remain over charged the whole time you are going through these YELLOW CIRCLES.

Then, your job here is complete!

Once you've collected all eight orbs, the Gacha Machine becomes permanently unlocked for the rest of that match, allowing you to use it throughout your game.

How the Gacha Machine Works

The Gacha Machine is pretty simple once it's unlocked:

  • You receive one spin per round.
  • Every spin awards one random weapon charm.
  • Each charm grants a unique gameplay effect.
  • The effects remain active for the rest of the match unless otherwise stated.
  • You cannot choose which charm you receive, so every spin is a gamble.

That random element is part of the fun—but it can also be a little painful depending on your luck.

Every Known Gacha Machine Weapon Charm

While the community has confirmed that there are five total weapon charms available from the Gacha Machine, only three of their effects have been reliably identified so far.

Pack-a-Punch Remover

Probably the least popular reward in the pool.

This charm instantly removes the Pack-a-Punch upgrade from your currently equipped weapon. If you've already invested a lot of Essence into upgrading your favourite gun, this is definitely the roll you don't want to see.

Plant Food

This is one of the better outcomes.


After receiving this charm, zombies begin dropping Plant Food pickups. These restore your health in a similar way to the Cherry Blossom Boost, giving you another useful source of healing during hectic rounds.

Free Euphoric State

Another excellent reward.

Instead of repeatedly activating the Cherry Blossom Tree, this charm grants you access to the Euphoric buff without needing to trigger it manually, making future gameplay much more convenient.

What About the Other Two Charms?

At the time of writing, players have confirmed that five charms exist, but the final two charm effects have not yet been conclusively documented by the community.

As more players continue experimenting with the Easter egg, it's likely we'll see those remaining rewards confirmed in the near future.

Is the Gacha Machine Worth Using?

Overall, yes, but with a warning.

If you manage to roll Plant Food or the Free Euphoric State, you'll gain some genuinely useful advantages that can make surviving higher rounds noticeably easier.

On the other hand, there's always the possibility of landing the Pack-a-Punch Remover, which can undo a significant investment in your weapon upgrades.

For that reason, many experienced players choose to wait until they've built up plenty of Essence before taking a spin. That way, if luck isn't on their side, recovering isn't nearly as painful.

As with any good gacha system, it's all part of the gamble. Sometimes you'll walk away with an incredible permanent buff, and sometimes the machine reminds you that the house always has a sense of humour.

This machine will give you 1 of 5 RANDOM WEAPON CHARMS, with each having their own secret ability.

Thanks for reading as always.

Kowakujo Takeo Side Story Easter egg - Black Ops 7 Zombies

Map Layout: All Areas

Hi guys,

here is how to activate the Takeo side quest in Kowakujo zombies map, within Call of Duty Black Ops 7.

Before we begin this side quest, we need to have chosen TAKEO as our OPERATOR skin, before we started the game.

We will also have to have a PSYCH GRENADE equipped in our load out, however we can of course craft one at any time at a crafting table or pick it up from fallen zombies.



We also need to have opened up the PACK A  PUNCH area of the map as well.

This is war....psychologically speaking

Once we have TAKEO operator skin equipped and the PSYCH GRENADE, head over to the WAR ROOM area of the map and just before you go up the stairs to where the WORLD SEED is located, there is a SMEA OF BLOOD in the door way leading up to it.




Drop the PSYCH GRENADE here and step into the red mist of it.

Once you do, if you turn around behind you, you will see a hallucination of TAKEO, where when you walk up to him, he will disappear and drop his KITANA SWORD.




Pick this up and you will be teleported into a FOREST as TAKEO, where you must destroy 4 waves of different types of zombies.

The only catch while being here is that you can only destroy them using the KITANA SWORD you brought with you.

The first wave is the beloved HELLHOUNDS, which come charging through the trees with intense energy.




These are quite quick and come in sometimes two's or three's so be careful with these.

Once that wave has been taken out, the second wave will consist of SCORCHED ZOMBIES coming through the trees, as the tree line bursts into flames, also, looking quite spectacular.







The easiest way to take these zombies out with the sword, is to use the HEAVY ATTACK, which is the left trigger attack. This will not only kill them, but also help protect you from the explosive damage they can cause when they die.

The next wave will consist of HEAVY ZOMBIES where they are armoured and a bit chunkier and more stronger than the previous waves.




Simply survive and destroy this wave, where you will then come to the mini boss here who is called TAKESHI. Plot twist, this is actually TAKEO'S BROTHER!







He is like the ONI you fought when opening up the Pack A Punch area of the map, where he has some swing attacks, electricity ground shocks and fireballs rotating around him that when they hit the ground, turn into heavy zombies that will try and help him destroy you.

Simply avoid his most dangerous attack which is the electricity ground shock, as it can sometimes make you go down instantly.




Simply take him out, he is not that difficult, by attacking, then retreating, with a bit of dodging included for good measure.

Once he is dead, you will be teleported back to the main map and to the SHOGUN'S SANCTUM, in front of the WORLD SEED. 

When you get here, depending on which round you do this on, as the higher the round, the higher the rewards will be when you return.






You will be greeted with a RANDOM WEAPON, an AETHER TOOL and a STANDARD KITANA MELEE WEAPON.

The RARITY of these rewards however will increase as mentioned, the higher the round you do this on.

However, the higher the round, the harder the waves of zombies in the forest will be to destroy as well as taking out the mini boss TAKESHI.

Thanks for reading.
