How To Unlock The Ice Axe Weapon In CoD: Warzone And Vanguard

gamespot.com:

Call of Duty Season 2 Reloaded is quickly coming to a close for both Vanguard and Warzone, and the season's final weapon has been quietly added to Vanguard. The Ice Axe melee weapon is now available to unlock, and there are different ways you can unlock it.

Season 2's Ice Axe is a throwable melee weapon added to Call of Duty: Vanguard. This is described as a weapon that can be used in combat as both a melee weapon and a throwable weapon.

The Ice Axe can be unlocked for free with an in-game challenge in either Vanguard multiplayer or Zombies. A Warzone unlock challenge is not currently available, but it will likely be added to the game with a future update.

Like all other seasonal weapons, it should also be available to be purchased with a cosmetic bundle, but there aren't any bundles currently available for the Ice Axe. A locked variant of the Ice Axe is currently showing in the menus as the Skal Crusher, which appears to be a fancy Norse version of the new weapon. The Skal Crusher will likely appear as part of a cosmetic bundle to purchase in the near future.

In Vanguard multiplayer, the Ice Axe can be unlocked by getting 3 kills with the Throwing Knife in a single match 15 times. The Throwing Knife is retrievable lethal equipment that can be added to your custom loadout, and overall, the unlock challenge shouldn't be terribly difficult for multiplayer. Attempting this challenge in small map playlists like Shipment 24/7 should help you complete your objective much faster.

Note: Vanguard's multiplayer weapon unlocks require you to complete the matches to get credit towards your challenge progression. You can't just get the three throwing knife kills and quit the match.

In Zombies, use melee weapons to kill 50
