MW3 Zombies brought Warlord Keres in Season 2 Reloaded, and joining the other two, Urzikstan is now deadlier than before. Here’s everything you need to know about the new Warlord Boss Keres in MWZ.

MW3 Zombies received new content in Season 2 Reloaded after skipping the Season 2 update. Just as players were about to give up on the mode, the devs introduced a whole new Act mission and new rewards.

Luckily, Season 2 Reloaded brought fresh content, with a new story mission, Dark Aether Rift, new Schematics, and a new boss to take on: Warlord Keres.

This new MW3 Zombies Warlord poses a fresh challenge for players in Season 2 Reloaded, so for those who enjoy taking down Warlords in MWZ, here’s everything you need to know about Keres.

Keres Fortress location MW3 Zombies

MW3 Zombies Warlord Boss Keres is located in her Killhouse Stronghold, which can be found in the H2/H3 locations of Urzikstan, in the northeast corner.

Orlov Military Base is located outside the MW3 Zombies Threat Zones.

Remember that to enter her Stronghold, as with any other Warlord Boss lair, you need to find the corresponding Fortress Key. You can obtain this by tackling Mercenary Strongholds scattered throughout the map.

The base won’t be easy to penetrate either, as it will be “well defended by soldiers, snipers, turrets, traps, and poison gas grenades.” The devs recommend wearing a Gas mask when taking on Keres in MW3 Zombies.

How to beat Warlord Boss Keres in MW3 Zombies

To defeat the Warlord Keres in MW3 Zombies, you’ll need to make your way through her Stronghold at Orlov, find Keres, and then kill her by doing enough damage.

We recommend bringing the best Perks, Pack-a-Punched weapons, Wonder Weapons, and tons of Gas Masks. Making sure you have a Gas Mask is essential, as the building is filled with poisonous smoke.

Keres’ Stronghold has two floors, so it’s best to shoot from the second floor to avoid the poison gas.

Keres packs ballistic weapons, a red poisonous smokescreen, bioweapons, and is joined by a group of Elite Mercenaries. Players need to stay out of the poison zone at all times, keep their distance, and use all their arsenal to get her health down until she’s eventually defeated.

Her poisonous gas will not only deal damage over time to players but also interfere with any Thermal Scopes equipped, so keep this in mind to prepare accordingly.

Defeating Warlord Keres in MW3 Zombies will net you the following rewards:

  • Weapon Blueprint: Callous.
  • Random equipment, gear, and Perks.
  • Random Wonder Weapon from the available pool.
