Black Ops 6 Zombies Citadelle des Morts has a new glitch that allows players to farm unlimited XP by freezing the round, preventing progression, while zombies continue to spawn at an increased rate. While various glitches have been discovered, they are typically patched out, so this one may also be fixed soon.

Since using glitches in Zombies does not affect other players' gameplay, it is harmless. As established, this particular one provides an interesting way to continually kill zombies and gather XP without progressing the round.

This article will outline the steps to activate the new unlimited XP glitch in Black Ops 6 Zombies Citadelle des Morts.


How to activate the new unlimited XP glitch after patch in Black Ops 6 Zombies Citadelle des Morts

Performing the glitch is straightforward and easy, but it’s recommended to complete it before Round 15, as zombies are less powerful and more manageable early on.

Before starting the match, customize your loadout. Select either an assault rifle or an LMG. If you're aiming to level up a specific weapon, equip it, but be sure to customize the AS VAL assault rifle for your zombie build. This ensures that you can use the customized weapon when you purchase it from the Wall Buy.

The key item to activate the glitch is the LT53 Kazimir tactical equipment, which can be bought from the Workbench for 1500 Salvage. Focus on gathering Essence and Salvage during the match, and prioritize purchasing the Kazimir. As you progress through the main Easter egg quest, activate the Pack-a-Punch Machine and have a conversation with Krafft.

If using the AS VAL, consider Pack-a-Punching it early to enhance its magazine capacity.

By Round 10, a special zombie with a bucket on its head will start to appear. Eliminating it will drop a Stamp, which is essential for obtaining the Bastard Sword. Once you have the Stamp, go to the Dining Hall area and interact with the statue featuring a lion engraving on its chest. You’ll receive the Bastard Sword. Before proceeding further, ensure you’ve purchased the Kazimir.

As you pick up the sword, four glowing parasites will spawn each round. To make this easier, eliminate the zombies but leave one alive to prevent the round from progressing. Then, pick up the sword and kill one glowing parasite with it to make it glow. Next, keep the sword in hand without using it.

Go to the Upper Village area and hit the door with a lion emblem present in the underpass using the glowing sword, and a symbol will appear on the door. Repeat this process three more times, until the door has four symbols. Interact with the door to teleport inside.

Place the sword on the pedestal. Equip your AR or LMG and shoot at the specified location (as shown in the above image). This will glitch the timer. If the timer appears, you’ve missed the spot and need to try again. Once the timer disappears, wait for zombies to spawn. Use the Kazimir and head near the singularity that it creates, which will teleport you outside the room.

Return to the Dining area, and above the Vulture Aid Perk-a-Cola machine, shoot the red glowing crystal to create a ray of light. Continue shooting the crystal, and the ray will change into a laser. Follow the laser, and keep shooting the connected crystals, adjusting the direction each time, until it reaches a small statue. This will spawn the Paladin’s Brooch.

Zombies will keep spawning without the round progressing. They will only spawn in the Dining Hall, so it’s best to position yourself in the Entrance Hall near the Ammo cache. Zombies will come from a single direction, and you can continue killing them.

Please remember to not enter the Dining Hall area, as this will deactivate the glitch, requiring you to start a new match to try again.
