How to Unlock the CARV.2 in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Season 3
When Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Season 3 first launched, fans were treated to one extra new weapon than usual. Rather than launching with two, Treyarch chose to release three weapons at once. Now, the fourth new weapon of the season has arrived, and it’s a formidable addition to the game’s armoury; the CARV.2 tactical rifle.
Black Ops Cold War Season 3 – The CARV.2 Rifle
While it does have competition in its category, the CARV.2 is undeniably a very solid contender for players’ attention. This tactical rifle offers burst-fire with good damage, no shortage of ammunition, and relatively low recoil; an excellent combination for eliminating enemy players quickly and efficiently. It is best-suited to mid-range engagements, although it can perform relatively well at long-range too.
The CARV.2 rifle is now available for players to use in both Black Ops Cold War and Warzone. However, like any new mid-season weapon, it must be unlocked first. There are two ways to do this. The first, very simple method is simply to purchase the “Plastik Prototype” store bundle. This bundle includes the “Konsole” blueprint which will give you access to a specific version of the CARV.2. If you want to get your hands on the new rifle, this is the fastest way to do so. However, bear in mind that you won’t be able to actually advance the weapon until you unlock it via the second method.
The other way to unlock the CARV.2 is to complete its in-game challenge. In this case, you’ll need to familiarise yourself with the other tactical rifles, because the challenge objective is to score at least 2 kills in 10 different matches with a tactical rifle. Complete this, and you’ll unlock the CARV.2 tactical rifle properly. You’ll be able to complete its camo challenges, for example, as well as earn XP for it.
