Forsaken Pack-a-Punch Machine

Like other Zombies maps, there are a number of steps to complete before you can place your weapon into the machine. Here's the fastest way to complete the steps and to unlock the Pack-a-Punch machine.

1. At the start of the game, head to the teleporter highlighted on the minimap. Activate it to begin a 30-second timer. Once the timer is finished, head through the teleporter and into the facility.
2. Once inside the facility, head up the stairs by Jugger-nog and open the door. Use the Essence to open the two remaining doors and make your way through the second teleporter.
3. This next step requires four parts that can be found in the following locations:
   - Video Store
   - Cinema
   - TV Store
   - Burger Town
   
   The parts are highlighted in yellow and are easy to spot. Once all of the parts have been collected, make your way towards the broken teleporter. Use the parts to repair it.
4. When it's repaired, head through it and advance towards a blue door. Open the door to access The Amplifier. As you approach, an Abomination will appear through a teleporter.
5. When its head flashes purple, shoot it to deal the most amount of damage. Once it's eliminated, head through the next teleporter to enter the Observation Tower. Press the button to end the lockdown and the Pack-a-Punch machine will be directly opposite.

There you have it! There's a step-by-step guide on how to activate the Pack-a-Punch machine on the Forsaken Zombies map. For those that prefer a visual guide, Zombies extraordinaire MrRoflWaffles has uploaded a complete guide. Check it out below.
