Call of Duty Black Ops 6 features a full range of unique Scorestreaks you can use, including new and returning fan favorites.
Black Ops 6 rewards players for performing well during matches with Scorestreaks. You earn points for getting eliminations or playing the objective, and those can be spent on unique abilities. However, if you get eliminated, that score will reset.
Regardless of their cost, players can choose any three Scorestreaks they want to use for a match. All options have a set price, but the Dispatcher Perk reduces the cost of non-lethal Scorestreaks, and the Bankroll Perk automatically awards you a +150 score towards Scorestreaks at the start of a match.
Let’s jump right into what you need to know.

Scout Pulse
- Score: 400 (300 if Dispatcher perk equipped.)
- Good for: Finding enemies who are close to you.
Scout Pulse is one of the new perks introduced in Black Ops 6, sending out a ping that reveals the location of nearby enemies on your minimap. It’s not quite as useful as a UAV since it only shows the positions for you and not your teammates, but for 400 score, it can be useful if you feel like an opponent is hiding in your vicinity.
RC-XD
- Score: 450
- Good for: Finding kills without putting yourself in danger.
The Remote Controlled-Explosive Device, better known as the RC-XD, returns to Black Ops 6. While this may not be a surprise to fans who know it has appeared in all previous Black Ops games, its inclusion is still welcome.
When activated, players can take control of the small but deadly vehicle, which has been stocked with enough explosives to take down enemies when detonated right at their feet. However, the RC-XD can be shot and destroyed before it finds its target, so be sure to choose your route and victim wisely.
SAM Turret
- Score: 550 (500 if Dispatcher perk equipped.)
- Good for: Taking down enemy scorestreaks in the sky.
Do you hate getting shot by enemy Chopper Gunners? Are Watchdog Helos making your life miserable? Then stick on a SAM Turret, which you can plop down on the map to shoot down enemy aerial scorestreaks.
UAV
- Score: 600 (500 if Dispatcher perk equipped.)
- Good for: Revealing enemy locations across the map for your entire team.
The UAV is one of the most famous Scorestreaks in the CoD franchise. It reveals the static position of your enemies on the minimap every few seconds for you and your teammates. It lasts for a duration of 30 seconds.
Archangel Launcher
- Score: 650
- Good for: Firing explosives at enemies or Scorestreaks.
A rocket launcher that fires remote-piloted rockets with a magazine size of two. You can use this however you want – either fire it at enemy positions to blow them away, or use it to take down Scorestreaks that are causing your team problems.
Counter UAV
- Score: 700 (550 if Dispatcher perk equipped.)
- Good for: Keeping your position of the enemy’s minimap.
UAVs only cost 600, so expect to see plenty of them in your matches. If you don’t want your enemy to know your location, earn an extra 100 points and drop a Counter UAV on them, which launches an aerial drone that scrambles their minimap, leaving them unable to see where you are. Perfect for launching sneak attacks, or to fight back if you’re under pressure.
Care Package
- Score: 750 (700 if Dispatcher perk equipped.)
- Good for: Getting high-end Scorestreaks without having to earn the points.
If you like gambling, then the Care Package is the Scorestreak for you. Earn 750 points, and a crate will drop out of the sky carrying a random Scorestreak. It could be something amazing like a Dreadnought or a Chopper Gunner, but it could be something worth less than 750 points like an RC-XD or a UAV. The risk is big, but the reward could be mighty.
Napalm Strike
- Score: 900
- Good for: Clearing out a small area of enemies.
If you’re struggling to capture a flag in Domination or can’t break a Hardpoint hill, then the Napalm Strike could be a very useful tool in your armory. Dropping liquid fire on your opponents can not only get you kills but also keep them out of areas where you don’t want them.
LDBR
- Score: 950
- Good for: Bombarding a location with explosives.
If you think the Napalm Strike isn’t explosive enough, then earn an extra 50 points and use the LDBR. Pick an area on the map that you want to target, call in the strike, and watch as missile after missile crushes your enemy into submission.

Sentry Turret
- Score: 1000
- Good for: Watching lanes and chokepoints for enemies.
The Sentry Gun is a CoD classic, and for good reason. If you need someone to watch your back or want to stop enemies pushing up a hallway or street, simply pop down a Sentry Gun, and it will keep watch for you. If it spots anyone in front of it, it’ll open fire, raining bullets down on them until they either run away or get eliminated.
Hellstorm
- Score: 1050
- Good for: Dropping a powerful but accurate missile on enemies.
Yet another returning Scorestreak, the Hellstorm allows players to call in a giant missile strike that deals huge damage to all enemies that find themselves caught within the damage area.
This Scorestreak is especially useful when you want to take out multiple enemies in one go or for providing covering fire and support when you’re stuck in a tricky situation.
Watchdog Helo
- Score: 1100
- Good for: Attacking enemies while also revealing their location.
The Watchdog Helo is a double-pronged attack. Not only does it fly around and fire its machine gun at enemies, but it’ll also send pings to you and your teammates letting you know where your opponents are. That means if your Watchdog Helo can’t take them out, you have the chance to run over and do it from the ground.
A.G.R Mk 1
- Score: 1200
- Good for: Attacking enemies from the ground without putting yourself in danger.
The A.G.R. Mk 1 comes equipped with both a machine gun and a grenade launcher, making it a roving death machine on any map. Even better, it’s remotely operated, so find a nice spot to hide, pull out your control pad, and drive this monster around.
Interceptors
- Score: 1250 (1050 if Dispatcher perk equipped.)
- Good for: Wiping out enemies across the map.
The Interceptors aren’t cheap at 1250, but they’re well worth it if you can manage it. Call it in, and a squadron of fighter jets will zoom across the map, dropping explosives as they go. While that might sound good, it gets even better, as they’ll come back for a second sweep and bomb the map again, making sure you deal a ton of damage to the enemy team.
Strategic Bomber
- Score: 1300
- Good for: Bombing large areas of the map.
If the enemy is controlling a large portion of the map, and you want to send them flying to kingdom come, then call in the Strategic Bomber, which lets you target a large portion of the map for the stealth plane to drop explosives on.
H.A.R.P.
- Score: 1450 (1250 if Dispatcher perk equipped.)
- Good for: Finding out where your opponents are in real-time.
The H.A.R.P. is your opponent’s worst nightmare, as it marks their exact location on your minimap, and your teammates’ too. Even better, it updates in real-time, so every step they take will be visible on your screen, letting you know their precise movements.
Chopper Gunner
- Score: 1600
- Good for: Wiping enemies off the map.
Another Call of Duty classic, the Chopper Gunner is difficult to earn, but well worth it. Call it in, and you’ll take control of a soldier sitting inside a helicopter, firing a turret with unlimited ammo at your enemies.
Dreadnought
- Score: 1800
- Good for: Causing absolute mayhem.
If you want to wreak havoc on your enemies, then the Dreadnaught is the best way to do this. This modified plane not only comes with machine guns, but also boasts multiple canons, rockets, and a Daisy Cutter bomb to finish off anyone who survived the onslaught from the rest of your weapons.
How do Scorestreaks work in Black Ops 6?
Scorestreaks can be earned by getting kills or playing the objective in Black Ops 6. Every time you eliminate an enemy, capture a Hardpoint or Domination flag, or complete a match objective like planting a bomb in Search & Destroy, you will earn points toward your Scorestreaks.
Do Scorestreaks reset on death?
Yes, the points you’ve earned towards your Scorestreaks reset when you die. Any Scorestreaks that you’ve earned are locked in and will be there when you respawn, but you’ll have to start over and try to earn any you didn’t reach from the start.
Do Scorestreaks loop?
No, Scorestreaks don’t loop in Black Ops 6, so once you’ve earned your three Streaks, you won’t be able to get more until you die. Treyarch’s Matt Scronce explained that this was to help avoid “Scorestreak spam” which some players didn’t like.
