The massive, cross-platform, FREE-TO-PLAY battleground Warzone is here! Download Warzone now and tell the whole squad: it’s time to drop in, armor up, and battle to the top.

Before you dive in, you’ll need to choose a Tier One Operator: the playable soldier you control in Warzone. Read on to meet the Operators of Warzone. And, learn how you can unlock a full team of Operators for combat, with matching Operator skins to complete the look.

First, Find Your Fighter.

Operators are elite, Tier One fighters, who represent a unique range of nationalities, backstories, and skillsets. When you start Warzone, you can play as one of two default Operators: one on the Coalition side, and one on the Allegiance side.

To play as any other Operator in Warzone, you’ll need to unlock the Operator in an Operator Bundle, by completing in-game challenges if you have the full Modern Warfare game, or by acquiring an Operator skin (such as through the Battle Pass). Free-to-play users cannot unlock Operators through in-game challenges. 

You can preview all the Operators, and see which ones are available for you to unlock, by visiting the ‘Operators’ tab.

Pro tip: If you complete the Warzone tutorial, you’ll unlock the ‘Battle Ready’ skin for Operator Domino. Any time you unlock an Operator skin, you unlock the Operator automatically. Make sure to complete the tutorial if you want to play as Domino!

Coalition, Reporting for Duty

The Coalition is broken up into three sub-factions: SAS, Warcom, and Demon Dogs. Each sub-faction contains three Operators that you can unlock in Warzone. To unlock a full sub-faction, so you can drop in with any of those Operators, purchase the corresponding Operator Team Pack Bundle.

Allegiance

The Allegiance is broken into the following sub-factions: Chimera, Jackals, and Spetsnaz. 

Pick up the ‘Chimera,’ ‘Jackals,’ or ‘Spetsnaz’ Operator team bundles in the Store when they become available, and you’ll automatically gain access to a full team of Allegiance fighters. 

Pro tip: Operator Team Bundles are usually packed with more than just an Operator skin. They also may include a watch, calling card, and more! Visit the Store to preview what’s in each pack and which Operator Team Bundles are currently available.

Unlock up to 11 Operators in the Battle Pass 

Purchase the Battle Pass for access to 100 tiers of next-level content that unlocks with gameplay, including 11 Operator skins. As mentioned above, if you unlock these Operator skins, you’ll unlock the corresponding Operator for Warzone, if you don’t already have that Operator unlocked.
