All Black Ops 7 Zombies field upgrades

What are the Black Ops 7 Zombies field upgrades? These powerful upgrades can really help you out of a jam. With six types, including five returning and one new defensive upgrade, and a further eight augments, here's how they work and a list of the augments for each one.

If you're taking on any of the Black Ops 7 Zombies maps, you need to kit yourself out with the best Zombies perks, but field upgrades can also change the course of a game. Field upgrades can be chosen at the loadout stage, but can be swapped during a match in the pause menu, scaling in damage as the rounds progress. You'll need to defeat enemies to charge the field upgrade, with each additional use having a slightly increased cost to fully charge.

Here are all six types of field upgrades coming to Black Ops 7 Zombies:

• Toxic Growth
• Dark Flare
• Healing Aura
• Frenzied Guard
• Energy Mine
• Aether Shroud
