Stop, don’t move as Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 introduced their new exciting game mode. They finally brought in the thrilling and popular Red Light, Green Light game from the Netflix series, Squid Game. Here’s how you can play the Call of Duty Red Light, Green Light. 

How to Access and Start the Game Mode

Players are about to experience one of the exciting and thrilling limited game modes in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. It’s actually very easy to start playing the new Call of Duty Red Light, Green Light. 

What they have to do is just go through the Multiplayer menu, then select “Find a Match.” After that, choose the “Red Light, Green Light” option from the Featured section. Then, you’ll be transported to their very own Red Card stadium. Once done with these, the competition against other players begins. 

Understanding the Basic Rules and Gameplay

Call of Duty Red Light, Green Light uses simple rules for its gameplay. It only has three rounds, each of which lasts up to two minutes, needing players to survive. Like in the popular series, Younghee, the giant doll, is the center of action in the game. This doll is at the end of the field to have a wide view of everyone. 

During the Green Light, where Younghee sings the song, players have to move towards their finish line. Once the music stops and the doll turns around, this signals the game’s Red Light where no one else can move. This includes the character movement as well as camera adjustments. 

Or else, players will be eliminated by the assistants from the game once they detect any motion from the players. Moreover, it’ll be increasingly harder each round of the game. See this guide to understand the mechanics better:

  • Round 1: Be among the first 28 players to cross the finish line.
  • Round 2: Qualify as one of the first 11 players.
  • Round 3: Finish in the top 4 to win the game.

Advanced Strategies and Power-ups

Now, how does Call of Duty make their Red Light, Green Light different from the gameplay many have seen on screens? In the game, they added some strategic elements that can give the players an advantage through the rounds. 

In Call of Duty Red Light, Green Light, they have glowing piggy banks and blue envelopes. With piggy banks, they’ll earn bonus points that will unlock the rewards from the event. Meanwhile, the blue envelopes are only available in rounds 2 and 3 of the game. This will give them knives to eliminate their competitors through melee attacks and finishing moves. 

Also, only four players will remain for the final round of Red Light, Green Light. So these power-ups increase the tension and thrill between players since they have to grab these items first. They also have to decide whether to go straight towards the finish line or redirect towards these advantages. 

Essential Tips for Survival

Can players apply the strategy from Squid Games’ Red Light, Green Light? Well, that’s one thing to try out while playing its Call of Duty version. But so far, here’s what players can do to survive the entirety of the game:

  1. Pay attention to Younghee’s song. She always calls for Red Light right after singing “da,” so observe her lyrics to time your stop.
  2. Focus on your timing and actual audio cues instead of other players’ movements. This will prevent you from being eliminated in the game.
  3. Make sure your controller doesn’t have stick drift to avoid the unintentional character movements. Better to adjust the Deadzone Inputs in the Controller settings between values 5 and 10.
  4. When in rounds 2 and 3 of the game, avoid the crowd of players to lessen the risk of knife attacks. 
  5. Wait for Green Light signals before moving your character. 

Conclusion

So, that’s everything players need to know to play Call of Duty Red Light, Green Light game. This is only a limited game mode, so it’s best to try it while the event is still available. Be sure to be ready to face and beat Younghee throughout the game.
