CoD Black Ops 6: Guide to Thriving in 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. Outsmart your opponents and be the last one standing in Young-hee's deadly camp.

This guide details how to play and offers tips to dominate.

Playing Red Light, Green Light in BO6

Access the Red Light, Green Light playlist from the Black Ops 6 main menu. The objective is simple: reach the end of the playing field without being eliminated. Freeze completely when Young-hee stops singing and turns around; only move when she sings with her back to you.

Early rounds are relatively straightforward. However, later rounds introduce blue squares containing knives. Collecting a knife allows you to eliminate other players, significantly increasing the competition. Golden piggy banks scattered throughout the field offer bonus XP for event rewards.

Tips and Tricks for Red Light, Green Light Mastery

Success in Red Light, Green Light requires absolute stillness when Young-hee is watching. Controller stick drift can be a major problem, so calibrate your dead zone settings (found in the controller settings menu) to ensure zero input when the sticks aren't touched. A value between 5 and 10, or higher depending on controller condition, is usually ideal. Remember to mute your microphone, as any detected sound might register as movement.

Patience is crucial. Don't push your luck by rushing. Check the on-screen indicator to confirm you're completely still before Young-hee turns. Avoid running in a straight line to prevent easy knife attacks from opponents.

Mastering Black Ops 6's Red Light, Green Light hinges on precise timing, proper controller calibration, and a muted microphone. By following these tips, you'll significantly increase your chances of survival and victory.
