MW3 Zombies Operators in the Dark Aether

If you are more of the type of player who likes to be alone and play at your own pace, here’s how you can disable the squad option and play solo in MW3 Zombies mode.

Not all players want to join a team to play MW3 Zombies, so those who favor a solo experience in the first-ever Zombies mode of the MW universe may question whether it’s possible to play alone.

Warzone’s Urzikstan serves as the Zombies map, featuring challenging Threat Zones which could be even harder when attempting to survive alone. Yet, if you choose to go solo, be ready to face multiple dangers on your own.

Here’s all you need to know on how to disable Squads and play solo in MW3 Zombies.

How to disable Squads & play solo in MW3 Zombies

To play solo in MW3 Zombies, you’ll have to disable Squads simply by toggling the ‘Squad Fill’ option off before jumping into a MWZ lobby.

The game will automatically have the ‘Squad Fill’ option on, as the main objective is to tackle the Urzikstan challenges as a group. To play alone, you need to find the toggle under the Start button and turn it off.

Facing the dangers of Urzikstan alone is not an easy feat.

PC Players can do this by clicking the toggle option, while Xbox and Playstation users can find and toggle it by pressing the Left Trigger or L2.

By doing this, the game won’t fill the missing ranks of your Squad, meaning that if you have someone in your party, that player will jump onto the map with you. If you are alone, you will be able to play solo in MW3 Zombies.
