Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's thrilling new game mode, Red Light, Green Light, a collaboration with Netflix's hit series Squid Game, pits players against each other in a deadly game of survival. Experience the heart-stopping tension as you strive to be the last one standing in Young-hee's perilous arena. This mode faithfully recreates the show's iconic challenge, complete with its lethal consequences for rule-breakers.
How to Play Red Light, Green Light in BO6
To join the fray, select the "Red Light, Green Light" playlist from the Black Ops 6 main menu. The objective? Survive each wave by strategically navigating the playing field. Freeze completely when Young-hee stops singing and turns; only advance when she sings with her back to you.
Early rounds are relatively simple, but later stages introduce a new element: blue squares containing knives. Collecting these allows you to eliminate opponents, escalating the competition. Golden piggy banks scattered throughout the map offer extra XP, accelerating your progress toward event rewards.
Black Ops 6 Red Light, Green Light: Tips for Victory
Mastering Red Light, Green Light requires precision and control. Immobility is paramount when Young-hee is facing you. Check your controller for stick drift (where the joystick registers movement even when untouched) and ensure your microphone is muted to prevent accidental elimination. Adjust the controller's dead zone settings (found in the controller settings menu) to ensure zero input when the sticks are at rest. Optimal dead zone values usually fall between 5 and 10, but this might vary based on controller condition.
Patience is key. Don't push your luck by rushing. Verify your stillness using the on-screen indicator before Young-hee turns. While tempting to maximize movement during the singing phase, a cautious approach minimizes the risk of unintended movement and elimination.
Avoid predictable straight-line movement; it makes you an easy target for knife-wielding opponents. A well-maintained controller, a muted microphone, and strategic movement are your keys to outsmarting the competition and claiming victory in this intense, Squid Game-inspired challenge.
