If you are looking for the location of the heads for the headless statue or details on how to start the Blood Sacrifice Ritual or what it does in Black Ops 6 Zombies The Tomb map, then look no further, as I’ve got you covered with this guide.

The Blood Sacrifice is one of the many easter eggs you can complete on The Tomb map.

But as with any other easter egg on the previous maps, there are no detailed hints on how to start and complete the Blood Sacrifice ritual in Black Ops 6.

That said, since I managed to start the ritual, I prepared this detailed guide showing all the steps.

So keep reading!

Update: I have verified the guide and mentioned details on Feb 18, 2025.

Black Ops 6 Zombies The Tomb map headless statue locations

There are two headless statues in The Tomb map that you can find in the spawn area.

To make things easier for you, I’ve shared its locations below:

Statue 1 location

The first statue is found in the western part of the spawn area.

Head to the above marked location and you will find it.

As you can see, the first headless statue is right before the two bulls fighting engraving where Pack-A-Punch moves.

Statue 2 location

The second headless statue is found in the southern part of the spawn area at the above-marked location.

As you can see, the second headless statue is close to the first one and is easy to spot.

Black Ops 6 Zombies The Tomb map stone head locations

You can find the missing head for the two headless statues in the Dark Aether Nexus in The Tomb map.

Statue 1 head location

The first head is located in the eastern part of the Dark Aether Nexus.

Right in front of the Juggernog machine.

Head to the above-marked location.

Once you arrive, you will find the wooden box that you see in the above screenshot.

If you have the Melee Macchiato Perk, you can destroy it in one hit.

Else, it takes around four to five melee hits to break the wooden box.

Break it, and inside, you will find the head you can place on the first headless statue.

Statue 2 head location

The second head is location in the western part of the Dark Aether Nexus.

Head to the above marked location and you will find the wooden box hidden between the plants.

Break it and you will obtain the second head you can collect by pressing the interact button.

How to reach the Dark Aether Nexus

For players who are wondering how to reach the Dark Aether Nexus in The Tomb map, it is very easy.

Just take the path that I have marked above.

You will have to go through three locked doors to reach there.

Once you arrive, you will find the flower-like blue glowing artifact on a pedestal.

Interact with it to open a painting leading to the Dark Aether Nexus.

You can see in the above screenshot how the portal to the Dark Aether Nexus looks like.

Go near it and press the interact button to teleport.

How to start the Blood Sacrifice Ritual in The Tomb map

To start the Blood Sacrifice Ritual on The Tomb map in Black Ops 6, you must place the missing heads on the two statues.

So head to the first statue and place the head by pressing the interact button while standing close to it.

Similarly, place the missing head on the second statue.

After that, stand close to the second statue, and you will get the prompt to “Start Blood Sacrifice.”

Press the button, and you will find the screen turned red with you at 1 HP and only armor.

How to complete the Blood Sacrifice Ritual in The Tomb map

To complete the Blood Sacrifice, you must defeat two Mimic bosses that spawn when you start the ritual.

These bosses are:

  • Taoxia
  • Krix Bia

Note

The name of the enemies keeps changing.

Once you defeat them, you should be able to complete the Blood Sacrifice Ritual.

What if you fail the Blood Sacrifice ritual

Other than completely dying, there are two ways in which you can fail the Blood Sacrifice ritual:

  1. You use a Bobblegum to teleport to a different location.
  2. You are playing solo and get downed. When you Self Revive, you fail the ritual.

But don’t worry. You can retry it in the next round.

So end whatever round you are on, go near the second statue, and start the ritual again.

What happens upon completing the Blood Sacrifice Ritual in The Tomb map

Update: You can apparently get a Golden Armor for no Essence cost from a wall buy near the two bulls at the spawn area upon completing the Blood Sacrifice ritual.
