Here are several methods to obtain the Chrysalax.
1. Crafting the Chrysalax
There’s one guaranteed method to acquire the Chrysalax, and that’s by crafting it yourself in Forsaken.
Here’s how to make the Chrysalax:
- Lift the lockdown by turning on the power
- From the direction you’re facing, turn right and go into the room ahead of you
- Next to a Mystery Box location, you’ll see a button on the wall, push it
- After several rounds of Zombies, a shielded crystal will smash through the donut shop
- Kill enough special enemies and the shield will disappear, revealing an exposed ‘Polymorphic Crystal Core,’ take it
- The next step requires you to kill a Tormentor using the Flamethrower Scorestreak, and you can then pick up the ‘Tempered Crystal Heart’ it drops
- Now, wait for an Abomination enemy to appear, and get it to perform its long-range beam attack on an Aether Crystal and acquire the ‘Energetic Geode’
- Make your way to the ‘Amplifier’ section, and insert crystals into the ‘Particle Accelerator’
- After a few moments, you’ll then need to start meleeing zombies next to the Particle Accelerator to charge it up
- You’ll know you’ve done as an almost angelic audio cue will happen, and the Chrysalax will slowly rise from within the machine
- Take it, and go an enjoy!
2. Open the mystery box
As with all incarnations of Zombies in Cold War, the map has a Mystery Box that tends to be slightly erratic and shift around from place to place. Spend 950 Points on the box and pray that the Zombies gods are in your favor, delivering you a Chrysalax.
A nice and easy way to obtain it, but a route that requires a great deal of luck to work successfully.
3. Legendary Trial Rewards
The Forsaken map has a trial machine for you to make use of, providing you with different objectives in exchange for great rewards.

If you are able to smash the challenge and level up your potential reward to “Legendary” tier, then you have the chance to claim a Chrysalax upon redemption of the reward.
4. Der Eisendrache Gold Chest
There are arcade games in Forsaken, and one of them is quite important as you can potentially earn a free Chrysalax from playing one.
To do this:
- Collect arcade tokens dropped by Zombies
- Head to the arcade games and use the tokens to to trigger the “Der Eisendrache” Pinball machine
- You’ll be taken to an area reminiscent of the Dragon side quest in Outbreak Zombies
- Kill zombies in the designated area until the canisters on the side of the dragon monument are full
- Once you are successful, a Golden Chest will be dropped
- Open it, and hopefully claim a Chrysalax
- If not, then repeat the above steps
