A recent statement from Treyarch revealed their dedication to expanding the Black Ops 3 Zombies experience, revealing: "As we’ve said before, Shadows of Evil and The Giant Bonus Map are just the beginning of the Zombies saga in Call of Duty: Black Ops 3.

"Beginning with Awakening and continuing throughout the Black Ops 3 DLC season, the team at Treyarch will continue the Zombies storyline with plenty of surprises along the way."

For more tips on how to get the most out of those Mega Gobblegums, read the tips from Treyarch below.

 

"Dr. Monty’s Factory is a new system within the Zombies menu that lets you craft Mega GobbleGums. To create a Mega GobbleGum, you must use Vials of Liquid Divinium, a new crafting material that can be earned by completing Zombies matches.

"Vials of Liquid Divinium are used to power three unique vats, each capable of producing Mega GobbleGums. For one Vial of Liquid Divinium, you can power up the first vat and create a Mega GobbleGum, meanwhile for two Vials you can use the second vat and get a better chance at receiving a rare Mega GobbleGum.

"For three Vials, however, the third vat will give you the best chance at receiving a rare Mega GobbleGum.

"After unlocking Mega GobbleGums in Dr. Monty’s Factory, you can add them to one of your customizable GobbleGum packs and reap the benefits in Zombies."
