Lebenblitz (“Life Blitz”) is one of the six Blitz of Call of Duty: WWII Nazi Zombies, the machines that take the place of the perks and give their power through an electric shock to the left hand. Alone, it brings the player back up after a down; with other players, it makes reviving them faster. It is the Blitz of the starting area on almost every map of the game.

In the First Room

Lebenblitz is the Blitz of the First Room: the books of four of the five WWII maps of the site place its machine in the starting area, doors closed, for 500 Jolts in solo and 1,500 in co-op, and each of them gives it as the only Blitz there.

MapGameWhat the book of the map says
The Final ReichWWIIVillage Entrance: at the far end of the alley, against a wall between wooden benches and barrels, next to the Village Square gate.
The Darkest ShoreWWIIBeach: to the left of the minecart exit. The only Blitz of the beach.
The Shadowed ThroneWWIIUnderbelly: the only Blitz machine of the Underbelly.
The Frozen DawnWWIICrash Site: straight ahead of the spawn, on a burning engine of the wreck.
Gröesten HausWWIINo Lebenblitz machine. It only comes from the Random Blitz, upstairs in the hallway between the two staircases: 2,000 Jolts for one Blitz drawn at random, then about two minutes before the next use.

The records set with it are on the ZFRR leaderboards.

Effect, game by game

Lebenblitz only exists in Call of Duty: WWII, so there is a single version of it.

The machine

Like every Blitz machine, it gives its power through an electric shock to the left hand.

In solo

500 Jolts. When the player goes down, Lebenblitz revives them automatically. The Blitz is used up by that revive, but the player keeps their other Blitz. It can be bought three times in a game, and it works alongside the Self Revive consumable.

In co-op

1,500 Jolts. The player revives the others at twice the speed. Here it can be bought again without limit.

A player can hold four Blitz at once, unless the Hoarder mod or one of the quest rewards of the game raises that limit. A downed player loses their Blitz one by one, in the order they were bought, the longer they stay down; each lost Blitz can be bought again.

Where to find it

Call of Duty: WWII: Prologue, The Final Reich, Gröesten Haus (through the Random Blitz only), The Darkest Shore, The Shadowed Throne, the three chapters of The Tortured Path (Into the Storm, Across the Depths, Beneath the Ice), Bodega Cervantes, U.S.S. Mount Olympus, Altar of Blood and The Frozen Dawn. The book of each map says where the machine stands.

Lebenblitz does the job of Quick Revive in the Treyarch games and of Up ‘N Atoms in Infinite Warfare. The five other Blitz of WWII are Kugelblitz, Laufenblitz, Faustblitz, Schildblitz and Schnellblitz.

Trivia

  • Call of Duty Fandom also lists the Blitz under the plain name “Revive”.
  • In the Prologue, Lebenblitz stands on the second floor of the farmhouse. Gröesten Haus reuses that house, and its Random Blitz stands in the same spot.
