November 14, 2025 We’re working on figuring out how to complete the Black Ops 7 Ashes of the Damned easter egg right now, and will keep updating this guide as we learn more.
How do you complete the Ashes of the Damned main quest? . While the BO7 co-op campaign provides a fun few hours before unlocking the all-new Endgame mode, and MP offers the same rampant chaos as ever, we can’t overlook the best part of any new Treyarch game: Zombies easter eggs.
Only one main Zombies map launched in Black Ops 7 on day one, but it’s a big one, and this might be the biggest Zombies easter egg we’ve ever seen. With a heavy focus on your new ride, Ol’ Tessie, this quest takes you further than your feet will carry you, and a series of upgrades even turn your truck into one of the BO7 Wonder Weapons. Do all of that and more with our walkthrough for the Ashes of the Damned main quest.
These are the steps to completing the Ashes of the Damned main quest easter egg:
- First off, follow the directed steps to unlock your Pack-A-Punch on wheels.
- Collect the Abomination Carcass from Reba’s Diner.
- Use this Ol’ Tessie upgrade to destroy purple plants.
Collect the Abomination Carcass from Reba’s Diner
Head to the diner and kill zombies inside until one of them drops the Freezer key. Use it to unlock the double freeze in the hallway, and collect the Abomination Carcass.
Head back to a garage with reliable Ol’ Tessie, and upgrade her again, adding the Abomination Carcass this time. Now use her to destroy the giant, glowing purple plants found on the main highways between POIs.
Stay tuned for more to come once we’ve figured it out!
Ashes of the Damned quest rewards
The quest rewards for completing the full Ashes of the Damned easter egg are the Oorah! Operator skin for Dempsey, 10,000 XP, and a map-themed Calling Card.
Just like in BO6, there are two versions of the Calling Card, the normal version and an exclusive version for players who complete the quest before Directed Mode is added.
With this step-by-step guide to the Ashes of the Damned main quest, you’re ready to head into the distorted Janus Towers Plaza and fire up Ol’ Tessie. Take a look at our guide to the best BO7 weapons to ensure you’re kitted out as best you can be, and pack some of our favorite BO7 Gobblegums into your loadout.
