Warzone 2 launched as we speak alongside Trendy Warfare 2’s Season 1 replace, becoming a member of the newest premium Name of Responsibility sport on the hip with its free-to-play battle royale sibling. The 2 video games share lots: weapons swimming pools, development programs, and battle cross progress are all synced between each video games. Historically, it is potential to unlock the whole lot by enjoying both regular multiplayer or Warzone, however one in every of Season 1’s new weapons is locked behind a Warzone-exclusive problem.
The M13B, an assault rifle Infinity Ward is touting for its excessive fireplace fee and low recoil (two stats you like to see on a CoD gun), is the one new gun in as we speak’s replace you could’t merely unlock by progressing the battle cross.
The necessities to unlock the M13B as an alternative contain leaping into Warzone 2’s new sandboxy extraction mode, DMZ.
Unlocking the M13B assault rifle in Warzone 2
The problem description for the M13B assault rifle reads as adopted:
“Unlock by defeating the Chemist within the radiation zone of DMZ and extracting his dropped weapon.”
For what I consider is the primary time in Name of Responsibility historical past, a gun is locked behind a PvE boss battle. You will discover the Chemist within the particular radiation zone in Al Mazrah, however provided that you are enjoying DMZ, not battle royale. The zone is marked by yellow on the tac map, this is what it seems like:
A number of issues to remember to finish this problem:
- Solely the primary workforce to reach and defeat the Chemist can decide up his M13B rifle
- The radiation zone damages gamers over time, except you’ve a gasoline masks
- You will in all probability desire a full squad of three to struggle the Chemist
- Solely the participant who’s holding the M13B upon exfiltration unlocks the weapon
The chemist’s actual location is not marked on the map, however he could be recognized by a yellow hazmat swimsuit. He is closely armored himself and has a pile of armored goons backing him up, so come ready. As soon as killed, his M13B could be picked up. The Chemist carries a particular M13B blueprint pre-fitted with attachments and a cool yellow camo.
If you wish to see the Chemist struggle for your self, YouTuber Geeky Pastimes’ temporary video information is a superb assist:
Extracting with the gun will not unlock the blueprint completely (although it will persist in your DMZ stock as contraband), however it’s going to unlock the M13B to be used in battle royale and multiplayer. The one main bummer right here is that you will have to make repeat journeys to DMZ to unlock the M13B on your complete squad—solely the participant holding the gun upon extraction really will get the unlock.
The excellent news is it’s possible you’ll not must kill the Chemist thrice. Since all you must do is be holding the gun on the finish of the match, it is potential for a buddy to drop the Chemist’s M13B earned in a earlier match, decide it up your self, extract, and get the unlock. Alternatively, you can seek out a rival participant who’s already killed the Chemist and take the M13B from them.
As for Trendy Warfare 2 gamers who’d relatively keep on with common 6v6 multiplayer, there’s at present no path to unlocking the M13B. That will change sooner or later, however this appears to be a deliberate selection by Activision to advertise Warzone 2’s launch. The opposite two weapons added as we speak, the BAS-P SMG and Victus XMR sniper rifle, are unlockable through the Warzone 2 Battle Go (opens in new tab).
