Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies is a 2024 cooperative video game developed by Treyarch and published by Activision. Set in February 1991, the game's story follows the senior staff members of the former CIA group "Requiem" directly after the events of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War (2020). It was released as part of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 on October 25, 2024, for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.

As with most previous iterations of Call of Duty's Zombies mode, Black Ops 6 Zombies—playable from either a first-person or third-person perspective—tasks players with combating endless hordes of zombies that increase in both number and difficulty with every round. The mode features six main maps, each of which features a main quest for players to pursue, along with a number of side quests and easter eggs. Like the core game, it features an omnidirectional movement system, allowing players to sprint, dive, and slide in any direction.

While developing Black Ops 6 Zombies, Treyarch sought to refine what they established with Black Ops Cold War, introduce new elements to the mode, re-add old aspects from previous games, and make it more approachable for new players. Marketing for the mode began in June 2024 during the 2024 Xbox Games Showcase event; a full reveal debuted in August. Upon release, Black Ops 6 Zombies received positive reviews from critics, who praised its core gameplay format, movement system, and its launch maps. A continuation of its story is featured in the Zombies mode for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 (2025).
