Zombie Santa, or Santa Gnaws, is back in this year’s annual CODMAS event and you can find him lurking about in Call of Duty MW3 Warzone. But where exactly is Zombie Santa in Call of Duty and how do I defeat him?
How to find Zombie Santa in Slay Ride Resurgence
There is technically only one place to find and defeat Zombie Santa during CODMAS and that is in the Limited-Time Mode called Slay Ride Resurgence. You will find Zombie Santas in the Infectious Holiday LTM and you’ll likely run into other Operators with the Santa Gnaws skin, but those aren’t the real Zombie Santa.

There are two ways to find Zombie Santa in Slay Ride Resurgence. The most obvious way to find Zombie Santa is by going to the train. The only map available in the Slay Ride Resurgence mode is Urzikstan which features an operational train. You’ll find Zombie Santa aboard this train giving out gifts to good Operators and dishing out pain to those who’ve been naughty.
The other, more challenging, way to find Zombie Santa is to capture a Deck the Halls tree point. The moment you enter a Deck the Halls point in Slay Ride Resurgence, a red flare will light up the sky, alerting nearby Operators that you’re trying to open presents early.
If you manage to survive the fight and secure the Deck the Halls capture point, then you’ll be awarded loot. Among the loot, you’ll find a key that opens a “Merry” portal. Enter this portal to fight a Juggernaut Zombie Santa. If you manage to defeat him, all the loot in his sack o’ presents is yours.

There’s no gameplay gimmick to defeating Zombie Santa — all you need to do is shoot him with a lot of bullets. The key strategy to winning a fight with Old Saint Nick is to utilize cover and your lethal equipment. Make use of killstreaks if you have them. Whatever you do, keep the bullets coming, and make sure to be out of the way when the bullets come your way.
That is how you find and best Zombie Santa in Call of Duty MW3 Warzone. Now, how to enjoy the rest of CODMAS, you ask? A good start would be learning how to find and use Snowballs during CODMAS.
