How to use Body Shield in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6

Black Ops Cold War’s Body Shield returns in Black Ops 6, allowing you to give a nice hug to your opponents. The tactic offers many advantages by safely guarding you from enemy gunfire. We’ll show you how to use Body Shield in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

How to perform Body Shield in Black Ops 6

To use Body Shield in Black Ops 6, sneak up behind an enemy and double-tap the Melee button. The interaction appears when you’re close to the opponent, which will also display a prompt for a Finishing Move (holding the button instead). It’ll be tricky to do with all the chaos going around, so it may take a few tries to master.

I find it best to perform the Body Shield while holding a Melee weapon, as it helps you move around faster. Some maps also have more hiding spots for you to use, including the train yard in Derelict. Then, once you complete it, you’ll temporarily gain control of the opponent with the free range to move around. Look out for the meter at the center of the screen to determine how long the shield will last. It goes by quickly, and the “victim” can even call for help to cut it short. Just try to take advantage of the shield while you can and shoot down anyone in your way.

When the Body Shield victim has done their part, you’ll have the option to Quick Kill or Execute (Finishing Move) them. But if you want to keep the fun going, you can use BO6 voice chat𓃲 with them to whisper some sweet nothings in their 🃏ears.
