How to get a nuclear bomb in Warzone 2?

Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 introduced the Tactical Nuke Killstreak to battle royale.

Along with a new map, a gulag, and a looting system, Warzone 2 offers players a new opportunity not available in the original Warzone: dropping a game-ending bomb. Here’s a breakdown of how to earn a nuclear bomb.

Win five consecutive games

First of all, in Warzone 2 players have to win five games in a row. In the sixth game, players can start the Champion’s Quest.

Locate the nuclear material

When game six begins, three yellow Warzone logos will appear on the map. Players must travel to one and activate the quest. Your main goal is to locate the periodic elements –
Beryllium, Plutonium and Tritium – to assemble the nuke.

The items will eventually appear on the map one at a time, and players must pick up each item. Watch out for the negative effects: beryllium puts a tracking device on you, plutonium deals constant radiation damage, and tritium jams your radar.

Assemble the atomic bomb

After a triggered jailbreak, a plane will drop the bomb on the map when the fourth circle collapses. Players have five minutes to reach the random location and assemble the nuclear bomb. All three nuclear materials must be deposited in the bomb.

The final step before detonating is to defend the bomb for two minutes. All remaining players can see where the bomb is on the map, so be prepared to fend off incoming enemies.

If you successfully defend the location, the bomb will explode after the two minutes and you win the match.

These steps must all be completed in a single game in order for a nuclear bomb to detonate.
