Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 – Kill Order Mode Explained

September 3, 2024 by Lauren Sayles

Protect the HVT!

The Black Ops 6 beta is live, giving fans of the franchise the opportunity to get their hands on the next instalment in the Call of Duty universe for the very first time. The beta gives players a taste of what’s to come in many ways, including through new game modes. One unique mode goes by the name of Kill Order and it puts a spin on Team Deathmatch.

Every Call of Duty entry releases a fresh mode at launch and Black Ops 6 is ramping up the action early on with the Kill Order playlist. Of course, more modes will be added to the game through updates.

How to play the Kill Order mode in Black Ops 6

Kill Order is a 6v6 respawn mode where each team will have a High Value Target, also known as the HVT. Everyone scores points for earning eliminations, but taking out the enemy HVT will bank your team the most points. When the HVT is killed, somebody else will be randomly assigned the role of the HVT.

The HVT will score extra points for earning eliminations, while also having extra utility. Although the HVT will be marked on the map, they have a constant UAV which shows the position of every opponent and armor plates for extra protection.

A Face Off Kill Order variant is on the way, following the same rules as regular Kill Order. As is the case with all Face Off modes, combat will take place on small scale maps and scorestreaks are disabled.

The Black Ops 6 beta features the Kill Order mode as part of the core playlist, so you can try the mode out now. Then, the mode will be available with the full launch of Black Ops 6 on October 25, 2024.
