The Season 01 Reloaded update for *Black Ops 6* is a game-changer for *Call of Duty* Zombies fans. While the spotlight shines on the new map, Citadelle des Morts, the update introduces several exciting new items. Let's dive into the details of the new Perk, Ammo Mod, and Field Upgrade coming to *Black Ops 6* Zombies.

Vulture Aid, a familiar utility perk from the *Black Ops 2* Zombies map Buried, is making a comeback. In *Black Ops 6* Zombies, you can find it at the new Perk Machine in Citadelle des Morts, or through the Der Wunderfizz Machine on Terminus and Liberty Falls. This perk boosts your scavenging abilities by causing killed Zombies to drop extra loot like Ammo and Essence. With the right Augments, you can enhance its effects even further.

The Light Mend Ammo Mod is a fresh addition, debuting alongside Citadelle des Morts and available on Terminus, Liberty Falls, and any future maps. Unlike other Ammo Mods in *Black Ops 6* that focus on zombie destruction, Light Mend prioritizes player defense and healing. Bullets with Light Mend deal Light elemental damage, and each shot has a chance to convert an enemy's health into a healing glyph that moves to nearby injured allies. Augments can enhance this unique Ammo Mod.
