One of the things you will want to look for in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 are the Perk-A-Colas while you are playing Zombies. Perk-A-Colas are something you could find before in past games in the same mode, but they are not the same and there are some key differences you will want to know about. Once you have them, you will keep them until you have died.
New changes in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies include a plethora of different gameplay mechanics and even a new gameplay mode. There is a new mode and movement changes that allow you to move with more agility than before. You can also switch between a first-person and third-person perspective, which can change how you play the game. However, if you want some power-ups in this mode, you will have to look at the Perk-A-Colas when you come across them.

Upgrades & Costs Involved
As of now, there are 8 total Perk-A-Colas available for you to find in vending machines. The currency you will need to buy them is Essence, which you will get naturally as you slay zombies. You will then have to use it to buy the Perk-A-Colas, which will increase in price as you stack them.

The Best Shotgun Builds In Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Ranked
The best Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Shotgun Loadouts are built around how you play the game and how to take advantage of the strengths shotguns have.
The effects of the perks are varied and can make your best build in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 even better. The stacks will stay until you die, but, if you meet certain conditions and your teammates revive you before a certain point, you can keep those perks.
The Perks stick around after a teammate revives if you have Augmented the Quick Revive Perk-A-Cola "EMT" which is explained below the table. It is also possible to do this with the Field Upgrade Augment "Persistence."

Additionally, as you can see each Perk-A-Cola comes with a set of 3 minor Augments and 3 major Augments. This is unlocked at level 11 and, once it is, you will be able to research and unlock the various Augments. The research will progress just by playing and earning XP in Zombies in Black Ops 6, and you will eventually get to every single one. You can see all Augments, including ones for Field Upgrades and Ammo Mods, in YouTuber MrDalekJD's video.
For example, you could pair Turtle Shell with Durable for the Jugger-Nog, but combining Reactive Armor with Durable would actively work against the build you're trying to optimize.
However, you will probably want to prioritize ones that give you better combinations. This is because, while you can get them all, you can only have two equipped per Perk-A-Cola, one major and one minor. The best combination for you may not be the best for everyone else, due to differences in playstyles. Feel free to experiment, but think about your early choices wisely as those will be the ones you get until you acquire more XP.
Once you understand what is going on, you can look at the various perks and decide where to start. This should also be a careful decision, as you will have to pick one to research and finish it before starting research on a new one. However, that is all you need to know about the in-game boosts from Perk-A-Colas as you head into Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies.
