In Black Ops 6 Zombies’ Citadelle des Morts map, gamers can transform into the Rat King. To achieve this, they must locate and capture the ten rats hidden throughout the French castle. Mastering the rat locations in Citadelle des Morts is essential for players to secure the impressive prize offered by Black Ops 6. Acquiring the Rat King status will give Zombies players a unique, eye-catching symbol, as well as useful items that could help them breeze through the initial game stages with relative ease.

The Citadel of the Dead maintains the entertaining trend of hidden surprises within the Zombies maps of Black Ops 6, and one of its most delightful easter eggs, involving rats and cheese, stands out as truly exceptional. This is particularly true when players earn a sparkling new item to adorn their head.

How to Activate the Rat & Cheese Easter Egg

After stepping into the Town Square’s spawn zone, head northward and glance towards your right to spot a glass display brimming with cheese wheels. You can shatter this cabinet either by using a melee attack or a gunshot, then grab the wedge of cheese on the left side. From now on, your mission is to locate all 10 rats in Citadelle des Morts. To do so, players should lie down and inch towards each rat, causing them to scatter, and here’s where you can find them all.

Players must also have Pack-a-Punch activated so that they can access the Alchemical Lab.

After locating all ten rounds and the rats having scampered off, players can proceed to the Oubliette Room where they trigger Pack-a-Punch. In the northeastern corner of this room, close to three stacked blue barrels, you’ll find a platter. Ten rats will be circling the platter, eager for food. To finish off, simply interact with the platter to drop a wheel of cheese that the rats will promptly consume.

After the rats have finished feasting, they’ll scamper off, leaving behind a treasure trove of goodies for players to claim. The loot may include any Ammo Mod, Perk-a-Cola, Tactical Equipment, Pack-a-Punch Aetherium Crystals, or Essence. However, one item is always present if all 10 rats are found instead of just a few – the Rat King’s crown. In Citadelle des Morts, the Rat Crown doesn’t seem to offer any special benefits beyond being a cool visual touch for emotes and third-person views. But for those dedicated Easter egg hunters, it’s a charming little achievement to unlock.
