Unlocking rare weapon camos is one of the most complicated challenges in Modern Warfare 2 but all it needs is a little hard work.

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is out soon and that means a whole new game filled with items and rewards to unlock, including weapon camos.

Activision has managed to maintain some mystery around what the full game will contain, despite suffering a few leaks – including two popular footballers’ operator skins

However, if you’re still not convinced Modern Warfare 2 will manage to keep you entertained after the first wave of excitement passes, you might want to take a look at the shiny weapon camo challenges that will be available at launch. 

Depending on the camo you have equipped, other players can tell how good a player you are, meaning that the rarer the camo the more bragging rights you’ll have. 

On your feet, soldier! Here is your mission checklist for the launch of #MWII

✅ Complete the Campaign
✅ Reach Military Rank 55
✅ Unlock all weapons and attachments
✅ Get at least one Special Ops Kit to Tier 5
✅ Unlock all operators
✅ Begin the Weapon Mastery journey

You’ll start with earning base-tier camo rewards, with the end goal being to unlock mastery camos featuring four unique designs: gold, platinum, polyatomic, and orion. 

Any weapon can equip a base camo once unlocked, which is usually specific to that weapon. In other words, base camos will be available across all weapons by completing a challenge on the road to a weapon’s first mastery camo. 

There will be over a hundred base camos available at launch, with more arriving with each new weapon that gets added to the game in later seasons. 

Unlike base camos, which are universally available, mastery camos are unlocked for only a specific weapon – making them far more desirable.

Here’s what we know so far about how you can progress through the camo challenges, to eventually unlock the rarest bracket of rewards. 

Every weapon has four base camo challenges, which will include things like a basic kill count challenge, kills without reloading, double kills, triple kills, and more. Weapons without attachments, such as the RPG-7, have only one base challenge, so you might want to start there.

If you complete all the base challenges, you unlock the first mastery challenge for gold camo, and so on and so forth.  

After gold comes platinum, which is tied to specific weapon categories, and its challenges will become available once a certain number of gold camos within a weapon category are acquired. 

So far, it doesn’t sound too daunting, though you might end up in a pickle once it’s time to unlock weapon camos in the polyatomic category.

To be precise, you’ll need to unlock platinum camo on 51 weapons (no, we’re not joking) to unlock polyatomic. 

However, Modern Warfare 2 will throw you a bone after this, by granting you orion camos for each weapon that you’ve equipped with polyatomic. 

Each Mastery camo is also tied to an extra challenge required for weapon mastery, which can be done in parallel with your camo challenge journey.

The Weapon Mastery challenges will involve getting a set number of kills with a weapon while a specific mastery weapon camo, e.g. gold camo, is equipped.

In the meantime you can try out Modern Warfare 2’s campaign missions, which launched a week earlier than the multiplayer if you pre-ordered the game.

You might even have enough time to finish its story if you’re willing to rush it, as it only lasts around six hours.

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 launches for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC on Friday, October 28.
