Like every year, the Christmas content of Warzone has arrived. There are cosmetic items to collect, challenges to be completed, and this year a Zombie Santa that needs to be defeated. If you’re struggling with Zombie Santa, here is where you can find him and how to defeat him in Warzone.
Where Is Zombie Santa in Warzone?
Thanks to the return of Zombie Mode in Modern Warfare 3, we get to see some zombie events in Warzone as well. Santa has managed to visit Warzone as well but unfortunately, he’s a zombie now and we have to defeat him. And the first step of that task is to find him first.
There are two locations where you can find the Zombie Santa, depending on whether you are at the start of a match or near its end. The first spot to check is Santa’s Safehouse. To reach the safehouse, first deploy to one of the Deck the Halls tree-themed capture points and upgrade it to Level 3.
After the upgrading is complete, a Black Site Key will be dropped and you must use it to make a Black Site Portal appear that will take you to Santa’s Safehouse. If you missed that opportunity, you have to wait until you reach the end of the match. Additionally, Zombie Santa will appear atop Santa’s Slay. Santa’s Slay is a train that travels through Urzikstan and by its unique skin, you can easily spot it.
How to Defeat Zombie Santa
Zombie Santa is basically a Juggernaut that wears a Santa outfit and can teleport. If you’ve already faced a Juggernaut, then you already know they are tough as nails, but not invincible. What you need is a powerful weapon like a Sniper Rifle or LMG to deal heavy damage.
The key difference between Zombie Santa and a normal Juggernaut is his ability to teleport. After you deal some damage, Santa will teleport to another room of Santa’s Safehouse or another carriage on Santa’s Slay. In the meantime, he will summon some common zombies that you must take care of as well. So make sure at least one of your teammates has a powerful weapon.
It’s also important to know that there is only one Zombie Santa in a match. This means other teams and players will want to kill Father Christmas as well. So, always anticipate other opponents crashing the party as well.
What You Get For Defeating the Santa?
If you manage to take down Zombie Santa, he will drop a Custom LMG Minigun, loads of Cash, and another random top-tier loot like Killstreaks or Munitions Boxes. But the most important reward of it is the Santa Gnaws Emblem, which is a hidden challenge in Santa’s Slayground challenges.
