It is featured on every map except for [[Nacht der Untoten]], [[Shi No Numa]], [[Mob of the Dead]], [[Origins]], and [[Revelations (map)|Revelations]]. Any map featuring teleporters requires the power switch to be used before using them. Using it lowers a bridge and opens two doors in [[Der Riese]], pulls back the curtain in [[Kino der Toten]], allows the DEFCON switches to activate on [["Five"]], and changes the screen from black and white to color and activates the [[Lunar Lander]] in [[Ascension]]. In [[Call of the Dead]], it allows the player to start the [[Original Characters Trapped]] easter egg. In [[Shangri-La]], it allows the player to start the [[Eclipse Easter Egg]], use the [[Mine Cart]] and the [[Water Slide]].

The initial four ([[Juggernog]], [[Double Tap Root Beer]], [[Speed Cola]] and [[Quick Revive]]) were introduced in the ''[[Call of Duty: World at War]]'' map [[Verrückt]], and barring occasional omissions, appear in all following maps. ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops]]'' introduced four more perks ([[Stamin-Up]], [[PhD Flopper]], [[Deadshot Daiquiri]] and [[Mule Kick]]) as well as the [[Random Perk Bottle]].

*'''[[Elevator]]''' - An elevator is a type of utility featured in [["Five"]] and in [[Die Rise|"Die Rise"]] where they transport the player between the floors. In [["Five"]] two of them can be found, the other being small and the other being relatively big. They show up again in [[Die Rise|"Die Rise"]] to connect the levels of the skyscrapers, in addition to carrying [[Perk-a-Cola]] machines and the [[Pack-a-Punch Machine]].

**They show up again in Die Rise to connect the levels of the skyscrapers (except the top half of the split skyscraper), in addition to carrying [[Perk-a-Cola]] machines and the [[Pack-a-Punch Machine]]. in "Five" and are free of charge in Die Rise. They automatically move between floors, and players must stand upon their roof to use them since the Perk-a-Cola or Pack-a-Punch machine blocks the entrance to the car. This can be dangerous since the elevator could move to its top floor and crush the player against the ceiling. The doors on each floor also always remain open, so players must be careful not to enter these doors if the elevator is too far down, or not even below in the first place.

*'''[[MDT|Teleporter]]''' - A type of utility used to transport players to a certain location.
*'''[[MDT|Teleporter]]''' - A type of utility used to transport players to a certain location. In [[Der Riese]], each teleporter brings the players back to the mainframe and costs 1500 points to use each time. In [[Kino der Toten]], it brings players to the Pack-a-Punch room and is free to use. In both aforementioned maps, the teleporters must first be linked to the mainframe before they can be used, and they have a cooling period between repeat use. While the teleporters in [[Der Riese]] are linked permanently, the teleporter is unlinked after each use in [[Kino der Toten]]. In [["Five"]], the teleporters are different. They teleport the player to another random teleporter. Unlike the other two levels featuring teleporters, [[zombies]] can use them too. They are free to use and they teleport the player immediately instead of waiting three seconds, though they require a brief cooldown period after being used. In [[Moon]], the teleporter is free to use and teleports the players between the moon and Area 51. It will only activate on the moon when all of the players are on it, and will only activate in Area 51 when all players are on it or one player reaches it after the alarm ends. Players do not control its activation, rather it activates when the conditions are fulfilled. In [[Dead Ops Arcade]], they can be found every four rounds and will teleport the player(s) to the next area. The Teleporters also reappear on the map [[The Giant (Black Ops III)]] and [[Der Eisendrache]] in [[Call of Duty: Black Ops III]] and cost 500 points to use.

A utility is a mechanism used in the Zombies mode of Call of Duty: World at War, Call of Duty: Black Ops, Call of Duty: Black Ops II and Call of Duty: Black Ops III.

Types of Utilities

Utilities are not found in Dead Ops Arcade.

  • Mystery Box - A box that gives the player that activated it a random weapon. It costs 950 points regularly, but only 10 with a Fire Sale. The Box appears in every Zombies map in Call of Duty: World at War and Call of Duty: Black Ops with the exception of Dead Ops Arcade. It moves, however, if a player gets the Teddy Bear. In Call of Duty: World at War, it can also roll weapons that can be purchased from walls.
  • Sniper Cabinet - This utility is only found in Nacht der Untoten on the second floor, in the same room as the M1897 Trench Gun. It costs 1500 points to use and gives the player either a scoped Kar98k or Springfield. On the iPod version, however, it gives the player an M2 Flamethrower.
  • Power Switch - This utility must be used before all other utilities are available except the Mystery Box, the Slides, and the Geysers. It is featured on every map except for Nacht der UntotenShi No NumaMob of the DeadOrigins, and Revelations. Any map featuring teleporters requires the power switch to be used before using them. Using it lowers a bridge and opens two doors in Der Riese, pulls back the curtain in Kino der Toten, allows the DEFCON switches to activate on "Five", and changes the screen from black and white to color and activates the Lunar Lander in Ascension. In Call of the Dead, it allows the player to start the Original Characters Trapped easter egg. In Shangri-La, it allows the player to start the Eclipse Easter Egg, use the Mine Cart and the Water Slide.
  • Perk-a-Cola - Special beverages from different machines that bestow a variety of abilities to the player that drinks them. Barring very specific cases, they are lost whenever a player is downed by an enemy. Only four can be had at the same time, though there are methods of circumventing this restriction. The initial four (Juggernog, Double Tap Root Beer, Speed Cola and Quick Revive) were introduced in the Call of Duty: World at War map Verrückt, and barring occasional omissions, appear in all following maps. Call of Duty: Black Ops introduced four more perks (Stamin-Up, PhD Flopper, Deadshot Daiquiri and Mule Kick) as well as the Random Perk Bottle. Call of Duty: Black Ops II has currently introduced an additional four perks (Tombstone Soda, Who's Who, Electric Cherry, and Vulture Aid), while Black Ops III introduces Widow's Wine.
  • Pack-a-Punch Machine - A machine that upgrades the player's weapon that they choose to put in. It costs 5000 points normally and 1000 points during a Bonfire Sale. It is found in all maps except Nacht der Untoten, Verrückt, and Shi No Numa.
  • Electro-Shock Defenses - The Electro-Shock Defenses provide a barrier of electricity, which instantly kills anything that runs through, including the player unless they have Juggernog. It costs 1000 points to activate, in Dead Ops Arcade the Electro-Shock Defenses are posts and kill anything that hit them, including players. They don't give points to the players when the zombies die.
  • Flogger - It is a large rotating wooden trap with long bars and barbed wire. It kills anything that interferes with it, including players. It appears only in Shi No Numa and costs 750 to use. It is only available after the player opens the gate to the Fishing Hut. It only costs 750 points to use in the iPhone and iPod versions.
  • Zipline - This is a type of lift only seen in Shi No Numa and Call of the Dead. It brings the players from one location to the other, only costing 1000 to access. Normal ziplines appear in Call of the Dead. They are free to use and usable by zombies along with players. The zipline also features in Zetsubou No Shima and costs 250 points, where it will take you from Lab A to the Docks.
  • Elevator - An elevator is a type of utility featured in "Five" and in Die Rise where they transport the player between the floors.
    • In "Five" two of them can be found, one being small and the other being relatively big. They cost 250 points to use. 
    • They show up again in Die Rise to connect the levels of the skyscrapers (except the top half of the split skyscraper), in addition to carrying Perk-a-Cola machines and the Pack-a-Punch Machine. in "Five" and are free of charge in Die Rise. They automatically move between floors, and players must stand upon their roof to use them since the Perk-a-Cola or Pack-a-Punch machine blocks the entrance to the car. This can be dangerous since the elevator could move to its top floor and crush the player against the ceiling. The doors on each floor also always remain open, so players must be careful not to enter these doors if the elevator is too far down, or not even below in the first place.
  • Teleporter - A type of utility used to transport players to a certain location.
    • In Der Riese, each teleporter brings the players back to the mainframe and costs 1500 points to use each time. In Kino der Toten, it brings players to the Pack-a-Punch room and is free to use. In both aforementioned maps, the teleporters must first be linked to the mainframe before they can be used, and they have a cooling period between repeat use. While the teleporters in Der Riese are linked permanently, the teleporter is unlinked after each use in Kino der Toten. The Teleporters also reappear on the map The Giant (Black Ops III) and Der Eisendrache in Call of Duty: Black Ops III and cost 500 points to use.
    • In "Five", the teleporters are different. They teleport the player to another random teleporter. Unlike the other two levels featuring teleporters, zombies can use them too. They are free to use and they teleport the player immediately instead of waiting three seconds, though they require a brief cooldown period after being used.
    • In Moon, the teleporter is free to use and teleports the players between the moon and Area 51. It will only activate on the moon when all of the players are on it, and will only activate in Area 51 when all players are on it or one player reaches it after the alarm ends. Players do not control its activation, rather it activates when the conditions are fulfilled.
    • In Dead Ops Arcade, they can be found every four rounds and will teleport the player to the next area.

In Ascension, there are two automatic turrets, one near the upper door leading to the Centrifuge Room, the other one being outside of the Pack-a-Punch Room where the rocket was launched.
  • Fire Pit - This utility was introduced in Kino der Toten and returned in Ascension. It costs 1000 points and will kill anything that comes into contact with it.
