What is Prop Hunt in BO6?
Prop Hunt is a hilarious and entertaining party mode that puts a unique spin on the classic hide-and-seek game. In this mode, players are divided into two teams:
- Props: This team disguises itself as inanimate objects, blending into the game’s environment.
- Hunters: This team searches for and eliminates the props by identifying what looks out of place.
Props range from ordinary items like chairs and pots to more surprising disguises like motorcycles or books. The goal for the props is to remain undetected, while the hunters aim to expose and shoot them.

Official Description of Prop Hunt in BO6
The official Call of Duty blog describes Prop Hunt as:
“Prepare for an infamous game of hide-and-seek, as the fan-favourite Black Ops party mode is back! Drop into a Multiplayer map as a Prop or Hunter. Props have one job; after a short period of time to find a hiding spot, you need to blend into the landscape as a random scenic object, but with the ability to move… and uncontrollably whistle every 30 seconds. Just wait out the clock, and don’t attract the attention of any Hunters, or the jig is up!”
“Drop identical decoys to fool your foes, change shape to a different piece of scenery, or lob a Stun Grenade at the feet of a Hunter if your cover is about to be blown. Meanwhile, the Hunters are here to scrutinise the map for anything that looks out of place… or whistles… and then shoot it!”
Enjoy hiding and hunting in this laugh-out-loud game mode! Whether you’re disguising as a chair in Nuketown or hunting for a pot in Vorkuta, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Prop Hunt guarantees hours of fun. Happy hunting!
