A Call of Duty game is only as intense as its camo grind. Thankfully for gamers, Black Ops 6 is bringing the heat when it comes to Mastery camos.
Mastery camos are back in a big way in BO6, and there’s already a lot for challenge grinders to look forward to. Gold returns, Diamond is back, and there’s even more to earn in BO6 than any other Black Ops game before it.
Here’s everything we know about Mastery camos in Black Ops 6.
Are there Mastery camos in Black Ops 6?
Yes, Mastery camos have been confirmed for Black Ops 6. So far, there are 12 Mastery camos confirmed thus far for multiplayer, Zombies, and for the first time ever, individual Warzone Mastery camos, too.
“Weapon Camos in Black Ops 6 are a new hybrid system of traditional headshot camo challenges and specialized challenges suited per weapon in Multiplayer, Zombies, and Warzone,” Activision said.
Each of the game’s 33 weapons at launch have nine individual “Military” camos to earn via specific challenges. In multiplayer it’s with headshots, in Zombies it’s with Critical kills, and in Warzone it’s with Eliminations.
Additionally, each individual weapon will have two of their own Special camos that can be unlocked by using that weapon. Once unlocked, Special camos can be used on all weapons.
The first Mastery camo for each mode can be unlocked by completing all 11 camos per weapon, while the second Mastery camo is unlocked by earning the first Mastery camo on a set number of weapons in each weapon class. The third Mastery camo is earned by unlocking a designated amount of second Mastery camos in each class, and finally, the ultimate Mastery camo is earned by unlocking the third Mastery camo across 33 weapons.

The 12 confirmed Mastery camos in Black Ops 6 thus far are Gold, Diamond, Dark Spine, and the return of Dark Matter for multiplayer, Mystic Gold, Opal, Afterlife, and Nebula in Zombies, and Gold Tiger, King’s Ransom, Catalyst, and Abyss in Warzone.
