Unlocking the prestigious Forged Camo in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is a rewarding challenge for players seeking to showcase their mastery with different weapon types and skills. This guide will walk you through the steps required to unlock the Forged Camo in MW3.
Each weapon in MW3 has its own set of base camo challenges. These challenges vary depending on the weapon type, such as submachine guns, assault rifles, etc. Completing these challenges is the first step towards unlocking the Forged Camo.
Forged Camo Is Unlocked Through Gilded Camo Challenge
After completing the base camo challenges, you need to focus on the Gilded Camo challenges. This involves completing all Gilded Camo challenges for each weapon within a specific category, like assault rifles or battle rifles​. It’s important to note that as more guns are added to a category through various seasons, the number of Gilded Camos required stays the same. For instance, if there are six assault rifles at launch, you’ll need to unlock six Gilded Camos for assault rifles​.
Once the Gilded Camo challenges are complete, you will unlock the Forged Camo challenge for the weapons in that category.
These challenges are tailored to each specific weapon. For example, a challenge might require you to “Get 3 Kills without dying 10 times” with a specific weapon​​. Complete the individual Forged Camo Challenge for each weapon to finally unlock the Forged Camo.
