What are BO7 Dark Ops challenges?
Dark Ops challenges are secret calling card challenges in Black Ops 7. The game shows no task text until you complete the challenge.
Each completed challenge unlocks its own calling card.
Co-op Campaign with Endgame, Multiplayer, Zombies and Warzone each have their own set.
Multiplayer and Zombies each give a Dark Ops Master card for 15 of their challenges.
The Zombies set holds the longest grinds, from Round 100 up to Round 999.
A PRO can play the Zombies Main Quests and high rounds on your account.

Which Dark Ops a PRO can clear for you
The Zombies quest cards need a Main Quest, often at high rounds or with Relics.
A PRO runs the Main Quest on the map you pick, with high rounds, on your account.
Each map run also brings 10,000 Military Rank XP and a Legendary or Ultra GobbleGum.
For weapon XP and camo kills in Multiplayer, a PRO hosts private matches against bots for the guns you name.
Pick your map on the BO7 Zombies boost page.
