When you unlock every weapon in MW2, you can create more dynamic loadouts for all the different multiplayer game modes.

But in Modern Warfare 2, not every gun is unlocked simply by climbing up the ranks.

Here is how you can unlock every single Weapon Platform and Non-Platform Weapon in Modern Warfare 2!

How to Unlock Every Weapon Platform in MW2 & Warzone 2

With Modern Warfare 2’s new Weapon Platform system, some weapons are unlocked through ranking up, while others are only unlocked by leveling up specific weapons within the platform.

It is worth noting that every base weapon can be unlocked by exfiling with a contraband version in DMZ.

And that is how you unlock every weapon in Modern Warfare 2. If you want to get a good idea of how every weapon functions, there is a firing range in the newly revamped Gunsmith.

They’ll put you in various situations where you’ll need to use a variety of tactics to survive.

What Are Weapon Platforms & Non-Platform Weapons?

Weapon Platforms is a term to describe a “weapon family,” where all the guns in that group belong to the same gun manufacturer. Non-Platform Weapons are unique and don’t share a gun manufacturer with other weapons.

To unlock every weapon, you will need to use a wider variety of weapons than ever in Call of Duty.

But this system also implements a new attachment mechanic that allows players to use attachments on multiple weapons after unlocking them once.
