Modern Warfare 2, Warzone 2 Season 3 Operators
There's two new Operators that have been added to Modern Warfare 2 as part of the Season 3 update. They're called Alejandro, and Valeria, and can be unlocked by purchasing the Season 3 Battle Pass.
How to unlock Soap, Farah, Ghost and Price Operators
If you've loaded up Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer, you will notice that Farah, Soap, Price and Ghost are all available as Operators. There is a catch however, as you'll only have access to them if you have the Vault Edition of the game.
The Operators are included in the Red 141 Team Operator Pack. This is...pretty pricey, bundling a bunch of exclusive skins and Operators. It's possible that these Operators will be available for all players later down the line. But for now, buying the Vault Edition is the only way to get them.
