In the campaign of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 there are six small puzzles in the safehouse that you can complete to access a safe. We list all the puzzles for you and explain how to solve them.
Before you start: To ensure a smooth process, we recommend that you turn on the generator in the basement as your first action. This will provide power. Follow these steps:
- Go to the basement: After the first cutscene in the second chapter, you can move freely. Turn right and go through the door and down the stairs.
- Fill the gas tank: Turn the valve on the far left until the counter next to it reads 50.
- Set the boiler: Then turn the valve on the right twice, which controls the boiler.
- Activate the pilot light: Now press the button on the generator.
- Adjust the boiler again: Now turn the valve again. There should now be a green light on the generator.
Now it’s time to solve puzzles. With the table of contents, you can jump to the puzzle you have the most trouble with in the safehouse.
Find the key combination for the piano
When you enter the fireplace room of the house, you will find a black light lamp on a small table next to the fireplace. It is essential for the further course of the puzzles, as it will be used repeatedly.
For the piano puzzle, you need to use it to discover the numbers on the walls along with the Cyrillic letters. Painted arrows next to them indicate where to find the next symbol. The sequence is as follows:
- MN, PE, CN, AO, PE
Now you need to press the corresponding keys on the piano. Each Cyrillic letter is located above a piano key, which you must then press.
A detailed guide with pictures can be found here:
If you have done everything, a door will open to the right of the piano. Go down the stairs and you will reach a second basement where you will solve the other puzzles.
Open the door with the keypad puzzle
The keypad puzzle is randomly generated like all the other puzzles that follow. From here on, we can only give you tips on solving it, not the solution itself.
In the keypad puzzle, you need to guess the correct number combination. You will get clues using your black light lamp. Shine it on the keypad and you can see fingerprints.
If they are only slightly visible, the number is probably represented only once. If there are multiple fingerprints on a key, then that number appears at least twice.
Further clues can be found in the indicators in green, yellow, and red:
- Red: The number does not appear in the combination.
- Yellow: The number does appear in the combination but is not in the correct position.
- Green: The number appears in the combination and is in the correct position.
Hack the computer and decode the password
In one room, you will find a computer at the back. You need to hack it to receive code words.
To do this, you will see a sequence of numbers at the top that you need to translate into letters using the letter and number order below. Enter these and repeat the process three times.
Break into the interrogation room and get the key
Then you need to break into the interrogation room by picking the door lock. You will be shown a small tutorial on how to unlock the lock.
In the interrogation room, you must take the key from the table to open the next room.
Determine the frequency from the radio and decode the secret message
The next puzzle is a bit more complicated. First, you need to use the two knobs on the left and right of the radio to set the correct frequency. The waves must be synchronized.
Then listen to the message playing. It contains four code words that give you a clue to the number combination for the safe.
The mentioned objects are in the room and you need to illuminate them with the black light lamp to see a number. Put together your transmitted number code and you can go to the safe.
Enter the safe code and crack the vault
Now it’s time to go to the safe. Go up the stairs to the 2nd floor and turn 180 degrees at the end of the stairs. You are looking down a dark hallway. Go in and through the door on the right side. Then go through the right door of the two. The safe is located to the left of the bed.
Enter the code and you will receive the following rewards:
- “Problem Solver” blueprint for the knife
- $1,000 currency
With the $1,000 you can purchase new abilities in the hideout. If you are also playing the zombie mode alongside the campaign, you can use our list to get an overview of the perks, gums, and ammo mods: CoD Black Ops 6 Zombies: All gums, perks, and ammo mods at a glance
