Mob of the Dead BO3 Custom: Secrets

Music

Rusty Cage

Three whiskey bottles play Rusty Cage by Johnny Cash: one on the shelves to the right of the Olympia in the spawn library, one in the infirmary near the wheelchair and the bathtub, one tucked behind a crate in a corner of the docks.

Where Are We Going

In Afterlife, zap 935 into the number pad of the Citadel tunnels, once it has been unlocked with the key: it plays the song of the trailer of the original, copforthat says.

Samantha’s Lullaby

Stand still at the start of the game and do not move until death: the Steam guide says the lullaby then plays.

Hidden power-ups

Three cells hide a power-up that stays until it is taken, and a ghost opens each of them by zapping the panel to its right, Kunjora shows:

one near Broadway;
one in the main strip of cells;
one in the spawn room, behind a hole in the wall that only Afterlife shows.

Brutus on 115

Typed into the same number pad in Afterlife, 115 plays a voice line of Brutus. copforthat lists it among the niche secrets kept on purpose.

Hide and Seek

A side quest that the Steam guide describes, and that no video guide of the remaster shows. After 115 is typed, a Samantha doll lies in the hidden passage of the shower room. Zapped, it moves under the acid trap of the cafeteria; interacted with, it starts a game of hide and seek. Six dolls must be found and shot around the cafeteria, a music getting clearer as the player gets close, the last one under the acid trap again. The reward is a Max Ammo and a song.

Other secrets

The scream

Aim a sniper rifle from the roof, in any direction, to trigger a jump scare, the Steam guide says.

Ciphers and comic strips

Copforthat rebuilt the ciphers and the little comic strips hidden around the prison early in the project, so as not to forget them.

Unrevealed questlines

The release notes add “multiple new hidden questlines” and new side Easter eggs, and version 1.0.2 a “new small side easter egg”. The guides used here do not document them.
