CoD Black Ops 6: How To Play Red Light, Green Light

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's thrilling Red Light, Green Light mode, a collaboration with Netflix's hit series Squid Game, puts players in a deadly competition for survival within Young-hee's chilling game. This mode perfectly captures the show's intense tension and high stakes, complete with the infamous lethal consequences for rule-breakers.

The gameplay faithfully recreates the show's iconic challenge, demanding precision, timing, and strategic thinking. This guide provides a complete walkthrough and tips to help you outsmart your opponents.

How to Play Red Light, Green Light in BO6

To begin, select the "Red Light, Green Light" playlist from the main menu. The objective is to survive each wave by reaching the opposite end of the playing field. Freeze completely when Young-hee stops singing and turns; only move when she sings again with her back to you.

Early rounds are relatively simple. However, later rounds introduce blue squares that, when collected, grant you a knife to eliminate other players. This adds a layer of strategic combat to the already intense challenge. Golden piggy banks scattered throughout the field offer bonus XP, accelerating your progress towards event rewards.

Black Ops 6 Red Light, Green Light: Tips and Tricks

Staying perfectly still when Young-hee is facing you is paramount. If using a controller, check for stick drift (where the analog stick registers movement without being touched) which can trigger your elimination. Similarly, ensure your microphone is muted, as detected sounds are also registered as movement.

To calibrate your controller's dead zone, navigate to Black Ops 6's controller settings. Find the Dead Zone section and use the testing feature to adjust the settings until both sticks register zero movement. Dead zone values between 5 and 10 (or higher, depending on your controller) are usually optimal.

Patience is crucial. Confirm your stillness by checking the on-screen indicator before Young-hee stops singing. While it's tempting to push your progress during the singing phase, rushing increases the risk of accidental movement. Controlled, cautious movement is key to survival.

Mastering Red Light, Green Light in Black Ops 6 requires precise timing and careful preparation. Ensure your controller is functioning correctly, your microphone is muted, and avoid running in straight lines to prevent easy knife attacks from opponents. With these strategies, you'll be well-prepared to conquer this Squid Game-inspired challenge and claim victory.
