All Bastard Sword's elemental forms in Black Ops 6 Zombies explained

Since the update just went live, it is currently unknown how to acquire the Bastard Sword. Initially, it will be dormant, but it can later be upgraded into one of the four elemental forms.

This Wonder Weapon is a formidable melee tool that perfectly complements the new castle map. The knights who guard the castle Citadelle des Morts and are now stone statues, echo the Bastard Sword’s legacy. When equipped, this weapon slashes through undead enemies with devastating power, and its defensive parry is particularly effective for blocking incoming projectiles.

Each elemental form of the sword will grant a unique special attack, which requires charging by killing zombies. The nature of the special attack will vary depending on the elemental form chosen.

Below are the Bastard Sword’s elemental forms and their respective special abilities:

• Caliburn: Dragon’s Fire - Create a fiery maelstrom of burning undead flesh, setting zombies alight and summoning an immense fireball.
