How to find the Ray Gun Mark II in Call of Duty: Blackout

The Ray Gun Mark II can now be used in Call of Duty: Blackout, but you will need to know where to find it and how to unlock it before being able to wield it. 

An update released on February  19 added a new area to the map in Ghost Town, new skins and a brand new weapon – the Ray Gun Mark II. However, the new Zombies gun can be a little difficult to find. 

Reddit user Toukoberry revealed just how to acquire the weapon in a quick post, stating that players seeking out the Ray Gun will have to complete an alternate version of the Buried easter egg from Black Ops 2.

Don’t worry if you don’t know how to complete the easter egg though, as we’ve got you covered. 

When dropping into the Blackout map, head to Ghost Town and find a Combat Axe in area. Once found, use the Combat Axe to hit a Bullseye on the dart board in the Saloon while standing behind a line of chalk which can be found just in front of the target.

Completing that will trigger a musical alert – a playing piano – and will then unlock a Jail cell door a few buildings away where a question mark sits on a wall. Interacting with the question mark will allow you to grab the all-new weapon.

Similar to the original Ray Gun, which can also be found in Blackout, the Ray Gun Mark II only comes with a limited amount of ammo – 60 rounds.

While the weapon differs from the original gun by firing in three-round bursts and not dealing splash damage, it is still an extremely powerful weapon and, if used correctly, can put enemies down with ease.

It is also unknown if multiple players can wield the weapon or if it is limited to one spawn per game.
