Purgatory - Zombies Mob of the Dead Secrets

Posted in black ops 2

In Zombies 'Mob of the Dead', if a player dies in the game they will be sent to the afterlife. This new feature is unique to Mob of the Dead and is called Purgatory. Players in purgatory will still interact with other players in the same area.

The Afterlife is a whole new element which makes you think a little bit more, find clues and go deeper. In the afterlife, things turn a neon blue colour and you can electrocute zombies with your bare hands.

There is a time limit for the afterlife though, once the timer (shown at the bottom of the screen) expires you will come back to life automatically.



The afterlife is also of major importance in finding clues and solving puzzles - particularly the easter egg. When in purgatory, certain objects will emit a bright blue colour, signifying their importance.

Turning on Power

When in the afterlife, you can use your electric 'shock' to turn on perk machines and disable power machines. Simply walk up to a machine and shock the machine to enable it (or disable if its a power machine).

How to get into the afterlife..again

You can force yourself back into the afterlife (without being downed by zombies) by simply walking up to a power point and holding onto the cables:



The good point about this technique is that you’ll know where your body is in case you want to revive yourself early.

Getting out of the afterlife

There is only ONE way to leave the afterlife and that is reviving yourself. If you don't revive yourself and the timer expires, you die!

The meaning of Purgatory

Wikipedia: Typically in the Roman Catholic religion, Purgatory is a place of purification or temporary punishment. Only a person who dies in a state of grace can be in Purgatory and no-one in Purgatory can go to hell or remain there forever.
