Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War Season 1 is introducing plenty of new content, including weapons.

Unlocking the MAC-10 SMG

The MAC 10 is a classic weapon first introduced way back in the first Black Ops title.

The MAC-10 is a small SMG that shoots incredibly fast. It’s a weapon that has raised to the top ranks of Warzone’s meta, overthrowing the likes of the popular MP5 and MP7 loadouts. If you love the hyper-aggressive playstyle of the SMG class , then you’ll definitely want to add the MAC-10 to your loadout. 

This pint-sized gun is the fastest SMG in the game and reloads quicker than most weapons, giving it an edge in close-quarter firefights. However, don’t let that fool you into thinking it’s weak from range. It does decent from mid-range, but only if you’re able to control the vertical recoil.

The MAC-10 can be unlocked in Black Ops Cold War by killing two or more players rapidly in 15 different matches with SMGs. It’s a pretty simple challenge, so it won’t take a long time to complete if you use our MP5 loadout

Unlocking the Groza Assault Rifle

The Groza is a fine addition to the impressive arsenal of weapons in Black Ops Cold War.

The Groza is one of the most mobile assault rifles in the game. It looks and feels somewhat similar to the AK-74u sub-machine gun, but it packs more of a punch and is quite versatile. In fact, it’s so versatile that players can customize it to suit almost any playstyle. It can be fine-tuned to fit everything from a run and gun style to a mid-range and long-range powerhouse.

The Groza can be unlocked by getting three kills without dying in 15 different matches. Just as with the MAC-10, this challenge shouldn’t take too long and can be completed very quickly in the game’s larger modes where you’ll come across more players.

So, there you have it, two new ways to unlock the MAC-10 and Groza in Season 2 of Warzone and Black Ops Cold War. Make sure you check out our Call of Duty hub for all the latest news and updates.
