Want to know how to get a Warzone 2 nuke now that some of the world’s best players have shown it’s possible? Well, we do now know how that particular killstreak can be earned, but with the sought-after nuke ending the game for everyone except your squad and handing you an instant win, it’s not easy. It’s an overpowered secret that would be a menace if players could get it with any sort of regularity, so knowing it is pretty tough to acquire should come as a relief.
How to get a nuke in Warzone 2
Thanks to the world’s first squad to earn the nuke in Warzone 2, we now know how to do it ourselves. And, in the hours since it happened, a few others have now followed in their footsteps. The steps to earning the nuke in Warzone 2 are:
- Win five consecutive Warzone 2 battle royale matches.
- Locate and accept the Champion’s Quest contract.
- Locate the three chemical elements to construct the nuke.
- Survive until the bomb site location is revealed.
- Assemble the nuke using the three elements.
- Arm the bomb, and defend it from opponents for two minutes.
The first step alone, winning five matches in a row in the battle royale game, is pretty tough in itself. But if you manage it, you start your sixth match with a Champion’s Quest marked on your map. The rest must all be completed within the same match to trigger that game-winning nuke.
The biggest difficulty with finding the elements, constructing and detonating the nuke is surviving – people will be after you. But as Youtuber Stellar shows below, maintain good communication with your team, survive the gulag if it comes to that, and you can still get back on track.
If you’re planning on acquiring this weapon of mass destruction in one of the best free PC games, you’ll need some firepower of your own first. Our best Warzone 2 loadout gives you the rundown of the best Warzone 2 guns to take into battle as you try and get those consecutive wins.
