How to play Prop Hunt in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6
Prop Hunt isCall of Duty’sunique version of a classichide-and-seekgame. You’ll take on the role of a Hunter or Prop in a 6v6 match, beginning with 30 seconds on the clock. Props must use this time to hide while the Hunters remain dormant. Then, the fun starts when it’s time for the Hunters to take down the Props.
Once either side has been eliminated, you’ll switch to the opposite role you started with. So, if you began the adventure as Hunter, you’ll be a Prop in the following round. To win,you must be victorious in three rounds.
How to play as a Hunter in BO6 Prop Hunt
The Hunter’s role is pretty easy to understand, where you must find and eliminate any Props. They can be almost anything, including a shelf, plant, or barrel. You’ll be spending a lot of your time shooting at everything, and if you’re lucky, you may end up hitting one of your foes.
In addition to your Tanto .22 weapon, you’ll have a Concussion Tactical to help you stun the Props. It’ll make it easier to slow down their movement for the kill. Any bullets or grenades you use will be replenished, so there’s no need to save up on ammo.
When the round begins, you’ll only have more than three minutes to find all the Props. Listen for any whistles to get a better idea of where they could be. If the timer runs out, you’ll lose this round but still gain another chance in the next one.

You can also throw Stuns whenever an enemy happens to locate you, giving you time to run away. However, you’ll only have a certain amount of Stuns, Decoys, and Changes. Use them wisely to stay concealed.
