Bishop Takes Rook is the first mission of the Black Ops 6 Campaign. It is a flashback during a debriefing session with Daniel Livingstone, the SAD Deputy Director, recounting a crucial operation. The story focuses on the team comprising Jane Harrow, Troy Marshall, and William ''Case'' Calderon, tasked with extracting Iraqi Secretary Saeed Alawi from Al-Jahra, Kuwait.
During the debriefing, Livingstone dismisses Harrow's official report, insisting on hearing Marshall's version of the events. As Marshall begins recounting the mission, the flashback unfolds, and the gameplay starts.
This article provides a detailed walkthrough of the Bishop Takes Rook mission in Black Ops 6 and explores the story behind it.
Black Ops 6 Campaign mission 1 "Bishop Takes Rook" walkthrough
As the mission begins, Harrow, Marshall, and Case monitor a convoy carrying Saeed Alawi from a distance. To intercept it, missiles are dropped to destroy the vehicles. Once the convoy is obliterated, the gameplay starts, and you assume the role of William 'Case' Calderon.

Following is the step-by-step breakdown of the mission's objectives.
Locate Saeed Alawi
Move along the road littered with the destroyed vehicles from the convoy. Along the way, you'll encounter several enemies, so stay alert and engage as needed.
Keep advancing until you spot a black vehicle that remains intact. This marks your next objective.

Question Saeed Alawi
Approach the black vehicle and interact with its door. Saeed Alawi will suddenly lunge at you, but he is quickly subdued and detained.
Just as you secure Alawi, a heavily armed paramilitary force called Pantheon arrives. However, they won’t spot you immediately, but they will block your exfiltration route.
At this point, Harrow suggests waiting for reinforcements, but Marshall disagrees. Instead, he proposes cutting through the Pantheon soldiers to reach the exfil point.
Reach Rally Point Echo
Before proceeding, create an opening to break through the enemy's defenses.
Deploy the RC-XD:
- Open your equipment wheel and select the RC-XD.
- Press the assigned button to deploy it.
Navigate the RC-XD:
- Steer it toward the group of enemies stationed near the truck.
- Once in range, detonate the RC-XD to clear the area and create the opening needed to move forward.
Proceed along the road, eliminating enemies as you advance. You’ll come across a red flare, with a narrow path between cliffs beside it. Move cautiously, as enemies will attack from above. Stay in cover, take them out, and keep pushing forward. At the end of the path, you’ll need to jump off the cliff.
As you and the others jump down, a sudden twist occurs: the exfil vehicle you were expecting arrives with Adler, who shoots and kills Alawi. Marshall detains Adler, forces him into the vehicle, and takes the driver’s seat.

Destroy the Pantheon Helicopter
As the vehicle speeds off, a Pantheon helicopter pursues you. Inside the vehicle, grab the launcher and aim at the chopper. Your first two shots will miss as it deploys flares. Keep firing; on your third attempt, you’ll land a hit and take it down.
With the helicopter destroyed, the road ahead clears, and your first mission is complete.
