Ever dreamed of unleashing powerful laser beams to obliterate waves of zombies? In Black Ops 6 Zombies, that fantasy comes alive. The Liberty Falls map hides the Aetherella Easter Egg, where collecting all the Aetherella locations transforms you into a zombie-slaying superhero. However, finding every statue needed to unlock this feature requires determination and strategy.
This isn’t just a fun twist, it’s your path to earning the prestigious “World Domination” achievement. Armed with the Thrustodyne M23 ‘Jet Gun,’ players can uncover the hidden figurines scattered across the map. Once complete, the transformation into Aetherella allows you to temporarily dominate the undead with devastating laser attacks. Are you ready to take on the challenge and become a superhero? Let’s get started!
What is the Aetherella Easter Egg?
The Aetherella Easter Egg is a hidden quest within the Liberty Falls map in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies. It’s a unique experience where, after finding all nine Aetherella figurines and activating them, the player transforms into Aetherella, a character capable of shooting laser beams from their eyes.
Completing this easter egg not only grants you temporary super powers, but also rewards you with the “World Domination” achievement. So it’s definitely a must-do if you want to complete all the challenges the game has to offer.
The Thrustodyne M23 ‘Jet Gun’: Your Key to Success
Before you can become Aetherella, you need the Thrustodyne M23 ‘Jet Gun’. This Wonder Weapon is essential for collecting the Aetherella figurines scattered around the map. It’s not just a weapon; think of it as a vacuum cleaner for small figurines. You’ll need this tool to activate the Easter egg. Finding this weapon is the first step on the journey to becoming Aetherella. While the game does not spell out how to acquire this weapon in detail, with some exploration, you will find it.
All Aetherella Statue Locations in Liberty Falls
The real challenge of this Easter Egg lies in finding all nine Aetherella figurines. They are cleverly hidden around the Liberty Falls map, requiring a keen eye and a bit of exploration. Here are the locations where you can find them, and remember you will need that Thrustodyne M23 ‘Jet Gun’ to collect them:
Olly’s Comics: A Treasure Trove of Figurines
Olly’s Comics is a hotspot for Aetherella statuettes. When I first entered this location, I had no idea just how many figurines could be hiding. You can find them in various places including:
- On a shelf next to the large Aetherella Statue
- Inside the boarded-up window
- Above the comic book racks
- On a box near the blue door.
Motor Lodge: High and Mighty
When I approached the Motor Lodge, I had to look up. You’ll find one of the Aetherella figurines on top of the red “Motel” sign. This one is hard to miss, once you know to look for it, making it one of the easiest to collect.
Lily’s Flowerpot: A Delicate Find
This was one of the harder ones to spot. Look on top of an air conditioning unit outside a second-floor window. This hidden location makes it a little tricky, so you’ll need to be attentive when searching this area.
Church: A Heavenly Spot
I had to check all corners here, but one figurine is located on the window of the church. This one is more visible from a distance than some of the other locations.
Fast Forward: Up on the Roof
This location is straightforward, but it’s always a good reminder to check high places. On the roof of the Fast Forward building, you’ll find another Aetherella statuette patiently waiting for you.
Liberty Lanes: Below the Surface
This is not an obvious spot, so I suggest you be thorough in your search. You’ll find a figurine beneath the Liberty Lanes sign, requiring a bit of ground level searching around the area.
Yummy Freeze: Cool and Hidden
I had to do a bit of a search around the Yummy Freeze. Keep your eyes peeled because there’s an Aetherella statue tucked away here too.
Once you’ve collected all nine figurines, you’re ready to activate the Easter egg and transform into Aetherella.
How to Activate Aetherella
Once you have all nine statuettes, the game will prompt you to activate them. Go to the large Aetherella Statue at the center of the map and interact with it. After that, you’ll have temporary access to the superhero Aetherella. I found that transforming into Aetherella was such a reward after searching so hard. It will definitely make you feel like a superhero, even for a short period of time.
The Rewards of Becoming Aetherella
Transforming into Aetherella is more than just a fun change of pace. It allows you to use powerful laser beams against the zombie hordes, turning the tide in even the most dire situations. Plus, you’ll earn the “World Domination” achievement, demonstrating your mastery of this easter egg. Although the transformation is temporary, it’s enough to make an impact. I personally found that using the laser beam is incredibly satisfying and it really shows the unique design of this easter egg.
Final Thoughts
The Aetherella Easter Egg in Black Ops 6 Zombies adds an exciting twist to the Liberty Falls map. By locating all nine Aetherella locations and using the Thrustodyne M23 ‘Jet Gun,’ you can transform into a superhero equipped with devastating laser powers. Completing this challenge also unlocks the “World Domination” achievement, making it a rewarding adventure.
While details like the laser damage or transformation duration remain unclear, the experience is unforgettable. For those seeking a thrilling and unique challenge in Black Ops 6 Zombies, this Easter Egg is a must-try. It combines fun gameplay with the satisfaction of uncovering a well-hidden secret.
