How to unlock the Frost Blast Field Upgrade in Black Ops 6 Zombies

The Frost Blast Field Upgrade in Black Ops 6 Zombies can be unlocked as a free reward in the new Blaze of Glory event. When used, it creates a blizzard that deals the zombies lethal frost damage and slows them down. This makes it a great pick for crowd control, especially when the hordes are too big and you need a breather. That said, though, this isn't the first time we have seen this Field Upgrade in a Call of Duty game.

Although the Field Upgrade is new to Black Ops 6, this isn't its first appearance in the series. It was first introduced with Black Ops Cold War, and was also featured in Vanguard and MW3 (2023).

With that out of the way, let us take a closer look at how you can unlock the latest Field Upgrade in Black Ops 6 Zombies.
