The Hammer and Sickle is the latest melee weapon to be added to Warzone and Cold War in Season 6, but how do you unlock it?

At the start of Warzone and Cold War Season 6, players will be able to unlock the Hammer and Sickle. Call of Duty players previously unlocked the Sai – a lethal martial arts-themed weapon that has proven incredibly popular. Carrying on this theme of deadly dual-wield weapons, Activision is giving players the chance to unlock the Hammer and Sickle.

This blend of deadly industrial and agricultural tools will make quick work of opponents in both Warzone and Cold War’s multiplayer modes. Whether you’re aiming to arm yourself with the Hammer and Sickle in Season 6 or just wish to know how to unlock it, then you’ll need to complete the following in-game challenge.
