Survival maps
| Map | Added | Where it is |
|---|---|---|
 Vandorn Farm | Launch | A farm from the Beta, also the Training Course map |
 Exit 115 | Season 01 | A zone of Ashes of the Damned |
 Zarya Cosmodrome | Season 01 | A zone of Ashes of the Damned |
 Mars | Season 02 | The Astra Malorum boss arena |
 Ashwood | Season 03 | The town at the center of Ashes of the Damned |

Most Survival maps are a confined slice of a round-based map. Tenshu sits inside Kowakujō, and Mars is the Astra Malorum boss arena.
Survival maps and their round rewards
Survival asks you to hold 1 small area for as long as you can. Exfil ends the run early when you want out.
Each newer Survival map pays the same 3 milestones. The rewards change per map, the round counts and XP stay fixed.
| Milestone | Reward type | XP |
|---|---|---|
| Complete Round 10 | Animated Emblem | 1,000 |
| Complete Round 25 | Weapon Charm | 2,500 |
| Complete Round 50 | GobbleGum | 5,000 |
On Tenshu the 3 rewards are the Mononoke Neko emblem, the Sleepy Cat charm and the Wonderbar! GobbleGum. Nuked pays the Population: Just You emblem, the Dead End charm and the Time Out GobbleGum.
Cursed Survival came in Season 02. You start with only a pistol and a limited HUD, on Vandorn Farm, Exit 115, Zarya Cosmodrome and Mars.
Cursed on Ashwood adds Relics. Its top tier pays the Mannequin Turret charm and 30,000 XP for reaching Round 75 with Tier 3 Relics.
Zombies modes: Standard, Directed, Cursed and more
| Mode | What you get |
|---|---|
| Standard | Classic round-based Zombies with the full Main Quest |
| Directed | A guided path through the Main Quest, with the objectives shown to you |
| Cursed | A harder ruleset with Relics that raise the challenge and the rewards |
| Survival | A small arena, endless rounds and an Exfil to leave |
| Starting Room | Rounds in the starting area of a round-based map |
| Training Course | The basics of round-based Zombies on Vandorn Farm |
Directed opened on Ashes of the Damned in Season 01. Starting Room came to Rex Infernus with Season 06.
Directed suits a 1st clear of a Main Quest. Standard suits high rounds, camo kills and the full quest without prompts.
Which BO7 Zombies map to play 1st
- Start with Ashes of the Damned on Directed. It is the 1st chapter and the largest map, and the guided quest teaches the systems.
- Play the round-based maps in release order: Astra Malorum, Paradox Junction, Totenreich, Kowakujō, then Rex Infernus.
- Switch to Standard once a map's quest is done. Standard runs give the long sessions that high rounds and camo challenges need.
- Use Survival for shorter sessions. Tenshu is the newest of the 8 Survival maps.
- Try Cursed last, once your Augments and GobbleGums are built up.
A pro can run the Ashes of the Damned Main Quest and high rounds on your account. The BO7 Zombies boost covers both.

Zombies camos and Pack-a-Punch skins
Zombies has its own Mastery camo track, separate from Multiplayer. It runs from Golden Dragon on 1 gun to Infestation on 30 weapons.
Pack-a-Punch skins sit on a separate kill track per weapon. The full Zombies ladder, challenge by challenge, is in the Black Ops 7 camo guide.
Survival maps feed steady kills for camo challenges. High rounds on a round-based map feed the Elite kills the later steps ask for.
