How to farm GobbleGums in Black Ops 6 Zombies
GobbleGums are single-use power-ups for Black Ops 6 Zombies. You chew a gum in a match for a short bonus or a special effect. Once used, it leaves your stock, so a steady farm matters.
- Play long round-based matches. The game hands you a random GobbleGum every few rounds you survive. A longer run means more gums.
- Level up your Zombies rank. 15 gums unlock at set player levels, from
Kill Joy at level 5 to
Hidden Power at level 54. - Use the GobbleGum Machine on the map. The machine is free and drops a gum from your equipped pack that you are not holding yet. Then it goes on cooldown.
- Set your pack before the match. Pick 5 gums in the Zombies Loadout menu. You start the match holding the top 3 gums of that pack.
- Add a Zombies store bundle when you want a jump. Zombies-focused bundles in the store include GobbleGums.
The machine only gives gums you still have in stock. Keep the gums you farm most of in your pack, and the machine keeps refilling your 3 slots.
A PRO can farm the number of GobbleGums you pick on your account. The cards below show the price.

How GobbleGum Packs work in a match
- A pack holds 5 gums. You build it in the Loadout section of the Zombies menu.
- You can swap packs mid-match. Open the pause menu and choose GobbleGum Packs.
- You never hold more than 3. A gum from the machine fills an empty slot.
- A gum is gone after use. It leaves your inventory once its effect ends.

From the source
Official“GobbleGums are earned by playing Black Ops 6 Zombies or by purchasing Zombies-focused bundles. The GobbleGum Machine is free; it gives one gum from the equipped pack that the player does not hold, only while it is in stock. Set the pack in the Zombies Loadout; change it mid-match in the pause menu. The first 3 gums of a pack are the ones you start with; never more than 3 on the player. Rarities: Ultra (Red), Legendary (Orange), Epic (Purple), Rare (Blue), Whimsical (Rainbow), the 5th more for fun than utility. Lists Kill Joy as Rare, Soda Fountain and Free Fire as Epic, Wall to Wall Clearance and On the House as Legendary, Perkaholic, Wonderbar! and Hidden Power as Ultra.”
Official“Packs hold 5 GobbleGums and can be swapped at the pause menu. All GobbleGums obtained in Black Ops 6 carry forward into Black Ops 7 at launch on 14 November. Kill Joy (Rare), On the House (Legendary), Hidden Power (Ultra). A gum leaves the inventory after activation once its effect completes.”
Official“Double XP tokens and GobbleGums will still carry forward into Black Ops 7.”
