How many crews can join a match?

Alpha Omega allows two separate crews, Primis and Ultimis, to play together. Each lobby can contain any four characters, provided no character appears in both crews.

The map’s large footprint, about four times the size of Nuketown Zombies, supports the dual‑crew layout by providing distinct above‑ground and underground zones.

What is the opening objective?

The first task is to contain a Nova 6 gas leak. Players must defend generators and repair the four house vents on the surface to stop the poisoning.

Successfully sealing the leak re‑activates the facility and awakens the AI overseer, Rushmore, which has been dormant since 1968.

When does Pack‑a‑Punch become available?

Pack‑a‑Punch is located in the Beds area of the bunker and remains locked until the gas leak is sealed; it opens together with the rest of the lower facility.

Because the Pack‑a‑Punch is tied to the containment, completing the vent repairs and generator defense is required before the machine can be accessed.

What are the Ray Gun Mark II variants?

Four elemental versions of the Ray Gun Mark II exist: V (electric chain), X (full‑auto dual‑wield after Pack‑a‑Punch), Y (explosive) and Z (scatter‑shot). Each requires a frame, an assembly kit, an elemental canister from a mini‑quest, and completion at a soul circle.

Constructing every variant within a single match counts as a distinct achievement on Alpha Omega maps.

Who is Rushmore and how can I use it?

Rushmore is the AI core of the facility, dormant since 1968. Players access it via four‑digit punch codes that unlock music, discounts, power‑ups and the quest’s authorization chain.

What special enemies and final boss should I expect?

The map introduces Nova Bombers, Jolting Jacks, Lightning Hounds and hostile A.D.A.M. units. The Avogadro, located in the pyramid, serves as the announcer and final boss.
