How to Unlock Victus XMR Sniper Rifle in Warzone 2 and MW2
The Victus XMR Sniper Rifle can be unlocked via the new Battle Pass system. It is available for free players, so there is no need to purchase the battle pass. Instead, you can unlock the Victus XMR Sniper Rifle easily in Warzone 2 and MW2 Season 01.
The Season 01 battle pass is in the form of a map with 20 Sectors. Each of these Sectors has five items. Players will need to level up to earn Tokens, which can be used to Unlock a new, adjacent Sector or more items in the current Sector.
To unlock the Victus XMR Sniper Rifle, you will want to head straight to Sector A7 on the Battle Pass map as soon as possible. It is a high-value target (HVT). You will need 15 Battle Token Tier Skips to get there.
It is as simple as selecting the Battle Pass sector, where you see the Victus XMR Sniper Rifle, and unlocking it first. Therefore, it should take players only a couple of hours to unlock the new sniper rifle.
