You may want to know how to Pack A Punch your weapons in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies, as this neat feature makes your guns more powerful and makes combat much more fun in the game.

With MW3 including Zombies, players will dive into the mode and enjoy all it has to offer - particularly its open world. One of the well-known features of the Zombies mode is Pack A Punch-ing your weapons, so here's everything you need to know to do just that.

How to find the Pack A Punch Machine in MW3 Zombies

You can find the Pack A Punch Machine by locating its icon on the Zombies map. There are a few spread all over the Urzikstan map, so you won't have any trouble locating them.

How Pack A Punch works in MW3 Zombies

Pack A Punch works a bit differently in MW3 Zombies. There are three levels of Pack A Punching your weapons in the games corresponding to the threat levels:

Pack A Punch Level Essence  Threat Area
Level 1 5000 Low Threat
Level 2 10,000 Medium Threat (Orange Area)
Level 3 15,000 High Threat (Red Area)

If you want to upgrade your weapon to level 1, you'll have to be in the low threat zone and for level 2, in the medium threat zone, which is the orange area. For level 3, you'll have to be in the high-threat area marked in red. 

Also, something to keep in mind is that Pack A Punch weapons last only for the duration of the match. So, if you die or exfil from the map, the weapons will return to their base forms. 

That's everything you need to know about Pack A Punch-ing your weapons in MW3 Zombies. We also have guides on the best MW3 weapons and the best controller settings, so be sure to check those out as well.
