Introduction
The fifth campaign mission in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 (BO6) is Most Wanted. Read on for a complete walkthrough of the mission, including tips for beating it, as well as its completion, challenge, and achievement rewards.
Most Wanted Walkthrough and Objectives
Get Briefed by Sev
Enter the Gala, approach Sev’s table, and take pictures of the Senator for a better look.
Choose Your Retinal Scan Sub-Mission in Most Wanted
Sev gives you a Gala Map to mark the sub-mission for obtaining the Senator’s Retinal Scan. You can choose only one, and it won’t affect the mission’s ending.
Open the Most Wanted Safe (Optional)
Before starting one of the three sub-missions, you can open the nearby safe for $1000. The safe is in the white-curtained area next to the guest check-in desk, accessible through the yellow-curtained doorway near the bar in the southeast corner of the main hall.
Secure the Senator’s audience in Most Wanted
Covert Affair
Choosing to go after the accomplice and secure their blackmail material locks you into this route.
Highest Bidder
Hacking the Auction terminal and choosing the Antique Clock locks you into this route.
Mystery Man
Finding the note in McKenna’s coat and following Grisham locks you into this route.
Note:- This section of the mission offers three options for meeting the Senator. You can explore all three, but once you progress past the points above, you’ll be locked into a route.

Speak to Mrs.McKenna
Talk to Mrs. McKenna, and she’ll direct you to the Auction Hall to meet Mr. McKenna’s aide.

Meet with Armato
Start the Highest Bidder sub-mission by approaching the trio next to the main gala stage. Interrupt their conversation by calling Armato’s attention and speaking to him.
Note:- The sub-mission will progress regardless of your dialogue choices with Armato.
Find the Secret Auction Computer
Hack the auction computer to find Sen. McKenna’s bid. Head to the main hall’s northeast section, bypass the guard, go through the yellow curtains, and loop around to the back of the Auction section.
Hack the Secret Auction Computer
Take out the guard behind the Auction section, hack the auction computer, and use the code word “MCKENNA” to discover that McKenna bid a fortune on the Antique Clock.
Find the Antique Clock
With this info, enter the Auction Hall and find the Antique Clock at the back, behind the motorcycles.
Reach the back of the clock
Spot the clock, then head to the north side of the Auction Hall entrance. Use the narrow corridor behind the auction items to bypass the guard and reach the clock.
Acquire the diskette in Most Wanted
Interact with the back of the clock to open its secret compartment, then solve the keypad puzzle to retrieve Armato’s diskette. Tip: Use your Blacklight to find fingerprints on the numbers, then input any combination of the three until all numbers are correct or highlighted in yellow.
Deliver the Diskette
With the diskette in hand, return to Armato, interrupt his conversation with the waiter, and hand him the disk.
Go to the Constitution Pub
After delivering the disk, Armato directs you to the Constitution pub in the West Hall. Sneak past the guards in this Restricted Section until you reach the bar. Warning: After the conversation, three CIA agents will enter the gala and begin searching for you, so stay in the shadows as you head to the West Hall.
Take a Photo of Senator McKenna
Head to the back to find Armato’s men detaining Senator McKenna. Snap a picture to capture the Senator’s retinal scan before moving on to the next phase of Most Wanted.
If You Choose Mystery Man Sub-Mission in Most Wanted
Go to the Coat Check
To start the Mystery Man sub-mission, go to the Coat Check near the gala entrance. Enter through the small restricted area next to it and go behind the yellow curtains to reach the back of the Coat Check.
Find McKenna’s Coat and Note
Inside, find Sen. McKenna’s navy overcoat with gold buttons and interact with it to retrieve the note Sev mentioned.
Look for Grisham
Next, find Grisham at the northeast end of the gala hall. He’s in a white coat, speaking to a security guard. Capture a clear picture of his face to continue.
Note:- If you see a “not fully in frame” message from Felix, adjust to get a clear shot of his face, as only his face is needed.
