The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Season 2 Reloaded update has added a host of new content to the game. On the zombies front, players will have to figure out how to find and beat MW3 Zombies Warlord Boss Keres, a treacherous new foe to do battle with.

Detailed in the Modern Warfare 3 Season 2 Reloaded patch notes, Warlord Boss Keres is the newest boss in the Zombies game mode. If you’re struggling to take out, or even locate, the new boss, we’ve got you covered.

Where is MW3 Zombies Warlord Keres?

If you're planning to take the fight to Warlord Keres, you’ll first need to know where to find the Zombies mode boss. Thankfully, Keres’ location is very easy to find, and you’ll be able to locate her in just a few minutes.

In MW3 Zombies, Keres is typically found at the Orlov Military Base she’s turned into her Killhouse Stronghold. Found in the Northeast of the Zombies map, it doesn’t take long to find the new boss.

However, before you can access the Killhouse Stronghold to fight the new boss, you’ll also need to find the keycard to access the location. In order to find the Keres Keycard, you’ll have to explore as it spawns randomly around the map.

How to beat Warlord Boss Keres in MW3 Zombies

Thankfully, Warlord Boss Keres isn’t the hardest boss fight in Modern Warfare 3’s Zombies mode, but there are still some useful tips for fighting her. In order to beat Keres, you’ll have to use a high-DPS weapon to do a lot of damage against the boss.

Of course, the better your loadout, the easier the fight against Keres will be. By adding in a Zombies Wonder Weapon or even the best Zombies field upgrades, fighting Keres will be an incredibly easy task.

The biggest trick to fighting Keres is to make sure you have a huge number of gas masks on your person. During the fight, Warlord Boss Keres fills the arena with red poisonous gas which will rapidly drain your health. Use gas masks to protect yourself against these deadly attacks.

Warlord Boss Keres rewards

If you manage to beat the MW3 Warlord Zombies Keres fight, you’ll be given a few rewards for your character. While the rewards aren't particularly fancy, you’ll still be able to get your hands on a couple of goodies.

Beating Keres gives you access to the following rewards:

  • Callous Weapon Blueprint
  • A single random Wonder Weapon
  • A random perk
  • A random piece of gear
  • A random equipment

While it’s not the best slew of rewards, fighting Keres does give you something for all your hard work.

What is the next MW3 Zombies Boss?

While Keres is the most recent boss, another Zombies boss will likely appear in the next season. With Season 3 Reloaded likely releasing in May, we should see a new Zombies boss then.
