How to unlock all new weapons in Black Ops 6

As of the launch of the game, there are 33 unlockable weapons in Black Ops 6, usable across Multiplayer and Zombies - with the latter mode having a few of its own, additional and exclusive 'Wonder Weapons'.

The pool of Multiplayer weapons will also be introduced to Warzone after the Season 1 update coming in mid-November.

Going by past entries, new weapons will also be added via seasons, expanding the available roster. These are typically unlockable via a season's associated battle pass, with an unlock challenge added for when that battle pass rotates out.

All of the guns in the base Black Ops 6 game are all unlockable via the standard 1-55 levelling climb, which can be done across both Multiplayer and Zombies simultaneously thanks to unified progression.

In the following table - which you can sort and search with - we run through the specific requirements to unlock every single weapon available right now.

Here’s how to unlock all of the new weapons in Black Ops 6:

How to permanently unlock weapons with Prestige and Blueprints in Black Ops 6

Black Ops 6 sees the return of many fan-requested features, one of the biggest being traditional Prestige, with a suite of ten Prestige levels followed by a Level 1-1000 'Prestige Master' climb.

A common staple of the Prestige system is that, upon reaching Level 55 and choosing to enter the next Prestige rank, your level is reset to 1 and all your items are locked until you reach the associated level again - though you keep all the individual progress, such as weapon levels and mastery badges.

In Black Ops 6, there are a couple of ways to circumvent this and offset the need to unlock absolutely everything manually, every single go around.

One is through a feature of the Prestige system itself - every time you rank up to the next tier of Prestige, you unlock a Permanent Unlock, allowing you to acquire an item of your choice, be it a weapon, perk, Scorestreak etc. and have it available permanently through all future Prestiges.

A second option is via any Blueprints you’ve unlocked, which allow you to use both the Blueprint variant and the base weapon itself anytime, regardless of what level you are, so long as you have access to Custom Loadouts.

It’s worth keeping both of these in mind as you spend your Permanent Unlock tokens – personally speaking, in past COD titles, I would typically skew towards unlocking Perks or items I liked that weren’t unlocked until the high Level 40s and 50s, but of course it all depends what you like to use.

Again, you’ll keep all your weapon builds and levels, but you might want to wait to jump into the next Prestige if you’re working on any camo challenges, so that you can finish those before the weapon is re-locked.
