There are a lot of objectives to complete in MW3 Zombies while navigating the Urzikstan map, but the Aether Extractors contract nets some of the best rewards. It is also one of the most difficult contracts to finish, so here’s all you need to know to complete it.

The new MW3 Zombies features an open-world map just like DMZ, and naturally, there are a lot of contracts to complete. You will have 45 minutes to finish any mission, objective, or Easter egg when entering Urzikstan in MW3 Zombies.

All contracts will reward players, but some have better items in stock than others. The most difficult contracts will give you better items but also put you up against the strongest enemies out there. If you feel ready, and you have powerful weapons, you might want to tackle the Aether Extractors contract.

Here’s all you need to know to complete the Aether Extractors contract in MW3 Zombies.

How to complete Aether Extractors contract in MW3 Zombies

MW3 Zombies players will need to find the rocket symbol on the Tactical Map to start the Aether Extractors contract and overload three rocket ships to complete it.

To check the rocket locations just open your map, and you will find that they have already been marked down. You and your team will need to rush in groups to these locations to overload the rockets, but it’s not going to be that easy.

When you approach them, hordes of powerful AI enemies will pop up to defend the rocket. Grab your best pack-a-punched weapons, Perks, and Equipment to finish each objective quickly. Once you’ve killed every enemy, press the interact button near the rocket to start the overload.

By overloading the three objectives, you will complete the Aether Extractors contract and a Reward Rift will appear. Use this Rift to earn some of the best rewards in MW3Z, like Perks and Ammo Mods, and get ready to exfill.
