How to unlock MG 82 LMG in Warzone & Cold War
Activision / TreyarchThe MG 82 is the new LMG on the block and it packs a punch in both Warzone and Black Ops Cold War. Here’s how you can unlock it.
While LMGs have struggled to maintain a top position among Warzone and Cold War’s most dominant weapons, there have been times where they have proven incredibly powerful. In fact, the PKM and Bruen have shown just how devastating they can be.
Whether the MG 82 has what it takes to dethrone the game’s current meta weapons remains to be seen, but it certainly packs a mean punch.
MG 82 LMG added in Season 4 update
This LMG has the highest fire rate in the class and also has a faster-aiming speed, making it a great pick for those that wish to avoid any sluggish performances.
While its mobility may still be on the slower side, the MG 82 strikes a decent balance between LMG and AR playstyles. The weapon’s description reads: “Full-auto light machine gun. Highest fire rate in class with improved aiming speed. Moderate recoil and damage with increased ammo capacity.”
Whether you’re looking to down multiple players or just wish to use something that isn’t an assault rifle, then you’ll want to add the MG 82 to your arsenal.

If you want to add the MG 82 to your collection, then you’ll definitely want to know how to unlock it.
To unlock the MG 82 in Warzone and Cold War, players initially had to reach Tier 15 of the Season Four Battle Pass. After reaching this level, players were able to use the MG 82 in Warzone and Black Ops Cold War lobbies.
As the Season 4 Battle Pass has since rolled over, a new in-game challenge was added for players to unlock the MG 82 instead.
Using LMGs, kill 3 or more enemies without reloading in 15 different complete matches.
The MG 82 is of course, just one small addition in Season 4’s mega-update, which is out now. For full details on everything that has been added to Black Ops Cold War and Warzone, check out our June 17 update patch notes.
