The new Streetsweeper Shotgun is now available to unlock in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War and Call of Duty: Warzone and here’s how you can acquire it in each game.

With the drop of Season 1 of Black Ops Cold War, we were given the Mac 10 SMG and Groza Assault Rifle. With this initial weapon drop, the Streetsweeper Shotgun was slated to release midseason and now it’s finally here.

The shotgun is available to unlock in both Warzone and Black Ops Cold War, and here’s a quick demonstration of how to do so per PrestigeIsKey on YouTube.

In comparison to other weapon challenges, you actually won’t be able to track your active progress to unlocking this weapon, nor will it appear under the Shotgun category until you unlock it.

The Shotgun shouldn’t be a secret unlock, which leads us to believe this is a glitch. You should try to unlock this gun as soon as possible, just in case it is patched.
