Shadow Rift in Black Ops 6 Zombies is a type of Ammo Mod that can add special effects to your bullets. These items might seem to be unnecessary at first due to the undead being weak as they can be eliminated with simple guns. However, the mode is quite unusual and spawns difficult enemies with each new wave where you would need to use different power-ups to survive the gunfights.

Shadow Rift in Black Ops 6 Zombies is capable of increasing the damage output of your weapons by providing the bullets with a shadow attribute. This item cannot be accessed in the game directly as you need to grind quite a bit and level up your account by playing the zombies mode. Fortunately, this Ammo Mod is worth the grind as it has a very special effect.

This article will highlight the best way to get Shadow Rift in Black Ops 6 Zombies and a quick overview of its augments.
