Zombies Map Legend: All Icon Meanings

All Map Icons

Note: Ammo Caches and Gas Stations have set spawn points that don't change per game of Zombies. However, everything else doesn't have set locations across all matches.

While certain icons like Exfils have a set number of possible spawn locations, these will switch up with every game. Similarly, Perk Machines and Contracts have set locations across the map, but the type of Perk Machine or Contract you'll find at that location will also differ across matches.

Zombies Map Threat Zone Meanings

Map of All Difficulty Zones

High Threat Difficulty

The high difficulty area, represented by the red zone in the map, is the most difficult area, where the toughest enemies can spawn.

You will need to upgrade yourself further in the medium threat area before you can take on this area. Banding your squad together with other squads will significantly increase your chances of defeating the final boss and making it out alive.

Red Zone Loot and Tips to Survive

Medium Threat Difficulty

In the medium threat difficulty zone, represented by the middle orange ring, enemies will be much tougher and attack you more frequently.

Be sure to upgrade yourself in the low threat area before moving on to this area. We recommend sticking with your squad to have a better chance of survival here.

Low Threat Difficulty

The low threat difficulty area covers the outermost area of the Zombies map, which is the uncolored zone in the above map. You will always start out in this area and enemies here will be very weak and easy to deal with.

It is recommended that you take your time in this starting area; completing Contracts, clearing out Encampments and Strongholds, buying weapons, and upgrading these weapons at Pack-A-Punch machines, as well as upgrading your own Operator with Perks from Perk-a-Cola Machines.
