New Citadelles des Morts glitch allows players to farm infinite XP in Black Ops 6 Zombies

A new glitch has been discovered in Black Ops 6 Zombies' Citadelles des Morts map where infinite zombies spawn, and the round doesn't progress, allowing players to farm unlimited XP. Previously, several glitches in Zombies let players exploit the game, including one that made players invulnerable to damage. While the developers quickly patched these exploits, players continued to find loopholes.

Similarly, in the new Citadelles des Morts map, this glitch causes infinite zombie spawns without round progression.

How to perform the new Citadelles des Morts glitch that allows players to farm unlimited XP in Black Ops 6 Zombies

First, engage with the main Easter egg to gain access to the castle. Follow the markers, which will guide you to the cannon you need to fire to break the castle entrance. Once inside, continue following the markers to activate the Pack-a-Punch machine. It's recommended to do this, as you’ll need such a weapon to survive past Round 10, where zombies become significantly more powerful.

After activating the Pack-a-Punch, the markers will disappear. To trigger the glitch, first obtain the Lion Knight's Bastard Sword. Reach Round 10, where a unique zombie spawns wearing a bucket on its head. Eliminate it to receive the Stamp, a mandatory item.

Once you have the Stamp, proceed to the Dining Hall on the right side of the castle. Here, you'll find four knight statues. Approach the one with a lion engraved on its chest, interact with it, and you’ll receive the Bastard Sword.

Afterward, glowing parasites will start spawning—approximately four per round. It’s best to complete this in a single round. Equip the sword and kill one glowing parasite; the sword will glow. Head to the Upper Village area, or the G5 map segment, where you'll find a door with a lion emblem with glowing yellow eyes. Hit the door with the glowing sword, and a symbol will appear. The sword will lose its glow, so kill another glowing parasite to restore it, then hit the door again. Repeat this process two more times.

Once four symbols appear, the door will teleport you inside. You’ll find a pedestal where you need to place the sword.

To activate the glitch, follow these steps:

Place the sword on the pedestal, but don’t interact with the puzzle. Remain idle until the timer is almost up (around three seconds left). Then, shoot the symbols randomly, which will cause you to be tossed out of the room for failing. However, you’ll notice zombies spawning inside the room as you are thrown out.

Now, complete your current round. When the next round begins, return to the door, interact with it, and you’ll teleport back inside. You’ll see the puzzle is active, even though the sword isn’t on the pedestal, and zombies will continue to spawn.

You can continue killing zombies, and if you want them to spawn faster, look for symbols flying around. The pedestal will display a symbol you need to shoot, and if you keep shooting the wrong symbols, more zombies will spawn. You can keep killing unlimited zombies, and if you run out of bullets, use your sword to gather kills. This will prevent the round from progressing, allowing you to farm infinite XP and Essence.
