Black Ops 4 Zombies Streamer Achieves World First Classified Easter Egg

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 launched in early October and from the very start, Zombies players were hunting and searching for all the easter eggs on the four maps. IX, Voyage of Despair and Blood of the Dead were all solved fairly quickly, with numerous streamers dedicating days to finding everything there is to discover. Classified however, the remake of Five from Black Ops 1, remained unsolved for weeks. Players started to doubt that there was even an easter egg to find on the map, assuming that Treyarch had led them on and they were chasing a red herring.

At the start of the month, four dedicated Zombies players discovered that an easter egg did in fact exist on Classified. The thing is, they abused bugs and exploits to be able to unlock it. All you have to do is reach round 150 and a cutscene will commence, but that’s much easier said than done. Now though, six weeks on from the launch of the game, somebody has managed it.

Mexican streamer exonfabiax_98 achieved the incredible feat after 38 hours. He was playing solo so that included sleeping and breaks as he had the ability to pause the game, but all in all, it took him a whopping 38 hours. He also didn’t go down once, which means that this run was a flawless one. Exonfabiax_98 earns the title of being the first person in the world to do this legitimately. Kudos.

According to a Reddit comment by /u/Nemo_DN, Exonfabiax_98’s strategy was to use the Hellion Salvo missile launcher and the shield. He also used the Winter’s Howl wonder weapon and the electric trap found on the map. Black Ops 4 Zombies has a tendency to crash when shooting normal guns at incredibly high rounds, so to avoid this, he simply didn’t use any. Come on Treyarch, fix your game please so this easter egg is possible for more people.
