How to Unlock the Machete Melee Weapon in Black Ops Cold War and Warzone

As Season Two of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War and Warzone settles in, the undead horde continues to invade Verdansk and Operators are looking for fresh weaponry to take them out. Thankfully, an all-new melee weapon, the Machete, is available to unlock right now - free of charge!

Machete

Manufactured from a durable steel blade tempered to maximum toughness to resist chipping and breaking. Popular in many tropical countries as both a weapon and an agricultural tool.

The Machete is the third new weapon to be introduced in Season Two, with a few more expected to release throughout the coming months. Stay tuned for challenge details once those weapons arrive.

Unlock Challenge

Bundle

If you'd prefer to skip the line and immediately unlock the Machete, you can purchase a Bundle from the Store which contains a Blueprint for this weapon. Upon doing so, you will be granted immediate access to the base variant.

At the time of release, there is just one Bundle and Blueprint for the Machete; purchase the River Slasher Bundle for 1,800 COD Points to gain immediate access to the weapon.
