The latest update to Season 4 of Call of Duty Warzone and Vanguard brought some new features, including the new weapon of the Vargo-S Assault Rifle. Among the slew of new features in this Call of Duty update are a brand-new Operator, game modes, a Terminator crossover, and the Vargo-S Assault Rifle. This weapon was announced to become available at the beginning of Season 4, but now the time has finally come for players to unlock the weapon.
The Vargo-S Assault Rifle stands out as a potentially strong and versatile meta weapon, offering a high-fire rate, steady aim, and fast reload speed before any Gunsmith attachments. It trades firepower for improved accuracy and fire rate and excels in mid- and long-range battles. The gun can be used in both Warzone and Vanguard and has some similarities to the Vargo 52 from Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War.
Since the weapon is available in both Warzone and Vanguard, there are multiple ways to unlock the Vargo-S. Players should ensure they find the best method to unlock this gun quickly and work on maximizing its capabilities.
Methods For Unlocking The Vargo-S AR In Warzone And Vanguard
There are three possibilities to unlock the Vargo-S through in-game challenges without spending any money. Players can play Warzone, Vanguard multiplayer, or Vanguard Zombies. The in-game challenge for Warzone and Vanguard multiplayer are exactly the same, so players can play either game to complete the challenge. The challenge requires players to get 15 close-range kills.
It is important to note that players must complete the entire match for any progress of this challenge to count. Therefore, players should try to find a playlist or game mode that requires a lot of close-range fighting at a quick pace. However, it is possible to unlock this challenge in Vanguard through just one game on a small map.
For Vanguard Zombies, players must use an assault rifle to kill 20 or more enemies without getting hit 50 times. This may sound like a long challenge, but in the early rounds of zombie matches, it is easy to mow down zombies without getting hit. Monkey bombs and decoys can be used in the later rounds to get 20+ kill streaks without getting hit in later rounds. The Shi No Numa map is the best choice to finish this challenge quickly.
Players looking to spend some coins and unlock the Vargo-S immediately can do so by purchasing a store bundle. Players can purchase the Seven Voyages bundle in the in-game shop. This will give players the "Fate Decider" blueprint in Warzone and Vanguard of the Vargo-S assault rifle and will cost 1,200 CoD Points, which is about $12 USD. However, players looking to unlock the base weapon that allows customization of attachments will still need to complete one of the in-game challenges.
Warzone is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC.
