MW3 has introduced a whole new Zombies mode, so using the Pack a Punch is expectedly different.

As you can expect, the Pack a Punch functions differently, especially because the Zombies map this time around is massive.

The days of tracking down a single machine on a limited map are over. Urzikstan has Pack a Punch Machines all over the map. So, if you need to upgrade your weapon, there are plenty of places to do it, which is incredibly helpful.

To find one, you are looking for a specific icon on the map. There are plenty spread out, so you’ll likely never be that far from one.

Using a Pack a Punch Machine

You don’t have to perform any tasks in order to use the Pack a Punch this time around. There’s no need to turn on any power or gather specific items. Instead, you can use one you find any time, provided you meet the requirements.

In exchange for Pack a Punching any weapon, you must spend Essence. To reach the first Pack a Punch level, you will need 5,000 Essence. From there, you can expect it to get much more expensive. However, dead zombies will occasionally drop a 2x multiplier, and that’s your sign to group up a bunch of zombies for a quick farm.

The fact that there’s no trick or barrier to using a Pack a Punch Machine in Modern Warfare 3 instantly makes them the best iteration of any Zombies mode in history.
