Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 - Guide to Mastering "Red Light, Green Light"

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's thrilling Red Light, Green Light mode, a collaboration with Netflix's Squid Game, pits players against each other in a deadly game of survival. Inspired by the show's iconic challenge, this mode demands precision, timing, and strategic thinking. Outwit your opponents and become the last one standing!

How to Play Red Light, Green Light in BO6

Access the Red Light, Green Light playlist from the Black Ops 6 main menu. The objective is simple: survive each wave by reaching the opposite end of the playing field. When Young-hee stops singing and turns, freeze completely. Only move when she sings again with her back to you.

Later rounds introduce blue squares containing knives. Collect a knife to eliminate nearby opponents, adding a layer of intense competition. Golden piggy banks scattered across the field award bonus XP, boosting your progress toward event rewards.

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

To avoid elimination, absolute stillness is crucial when Young-hee is facing you. Check for controller stick drift (analog stick input without touching it) and disable your microphone, as both can trigger your elimination.

To calibrate your controller's dead zone:

1. Navigate to Black Ops 6's controller settings.
2. Locate the Dead Zone section.
3. Use the testing feature to adjust the settings until both sticks register zero when stationary. A dead zone value between 5 and 10 (or higher, depending on your controller) is usually optimal.

Patience is key. Don't rush. Verify your stillness using the on-screen indicator before Young-hee turns. While tempting to push your progress during the singing phase, avoid cutting it too close. Controlled movements significantly increase your chances of survival.

Mastering Red Light, Green Light requires precise timing and preparation. A properly functioning controller and a muted microphone are essential. 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 emerge victorious.
