Guide to Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War's The Wild level, detailing how to reach the Room of Fate and use the Altar of Fate.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Begin by blasting open crates for items and progressing through the gate.
  2. 2
    Immediately after the gate, an optional route with a moving platform leads to the bonus area Ikari EggXit.
  3. 3
    As you pass under the first overpass, note the extra lives at the top, which can be accessed later.
  4. 4
    Continue advancing upward, defeating zombies and collecting treasure.
  5. 5
    An area below in the lava contains extra lives and/or keys, but is only accessible via Wild Portals after round 4 or 36.
  6. 6
    Pass under dragonhead statues that shoot fire.
  7. 7
    To bypass a section (solo mode only), flip the camera, dash over a wall to a raised platform, and use a hidden bounce tile to reach a higher wall.
  8. 8
    Proceed to a bridge heading left and cross it carefully, avoiding spike traps.
  9. 9
    After crossing the bridge, defeat nova crawlers and the spawn pod.
  10. 10
    Turn upward to find a blue altar and chests; open the chests and step on the uncovered switch to raise an elevator, allowing a teammate to collect extra lives at the overpass.
  11. 11
    Use 1-2 keys on the blue altar: 1 key for 1-2 players, 2 keys for 3-4 players, to reveal patterns on the fate stones in the Room of Fate. Using no keys results in random fates.
  12. 12
    A cave on the left of the altar leads to the final Deadly Dungeon, offering a chance to find a key and a Margwa.
  13. 13
    To proceed, go back across the bridge and continue up the mountain.
  14. 14
    Defeat the werewolf underboss who can dash-jump; maintain distance and keep firing, as he can regain health.
  15. 15
    At the summit, avoid jumping into the large bright hole of lava.
  16. 16
    Jump into the small black hole to reach the Room of Fate.
Tips
  • This is an untimed level; take your time.
  • The optional route to Ikari EggXit is for solo mode only; do not waste speed boosts if playing with a team.
  • If playing with a team, a teammate must step on a switch to raise an elevator for accessing extra lives.
  • Do not attempt to access the lava area below unless through Wild Portals after round 4 or 36.
  • Using 1 key on the Altar of Fate reveals one stone's pattern; using 2 keys reveals more patterns.
  • The cave near the altar leads to the final Deadly Dungeon for a chance at a key and a Margwa.
  • Avoid the path south through tight passageways and gates, as it leads to a difficult Blightfather battle and is a waste of keys.
  • The werewolf underboss must be defeated to reach the summit.
  • Do not jump into the lava hole at the summit; jump into the small black hole instead.
