Base Weapons and Attachments
As players delve into the depths of Season 03 in Black Ops 6, they will have the opportunity to unlock some exciting new base weapons, each designed for varied and strategic playstyles. The first of these is the HDR Sniper Rifle, returning as a beyond-lethal choice for players who prefer long-range combat. Equipped with multiple customization options, including attachments like Optics, Muzzles, and Barrels, the HDR is a perfect fit for those who enjoy picking off enemies from afar with precision and power. With its anti-material bolt action and high-caliber rounds, players can inflict significant damage even at extended ranges. This makes the HDR an exceptional option for missions set in the sprawling map of Verdansk where vantage points like the Control Tower provide perfect spots for sniping, offering a significant strategic advantage.
In addition to the HDR, the CR-56 AMAX Assault Rifle makes its way into the arsenal of Season 03. Known for its lightweight design and full-auto capabilities, this rifle thrives in mid-range engagements where its compact yet powerful nature can be fully utilized. The CR-56 AMAX not only provides impressive stopping power and reliable handling but is also adaptable, allowing players to customize it with a comprehensive set of attachments such as Lasers, Magnifying Optics, and Fire Mods to tailor their combat approach.
Complementing these base weapons are new attachments that provide a fresh twist on existing armaments. Notably, the Monolithic Suppressor is back, ideal for players focusing on stealth tactics. This suppressor increases damage range while maintaining the weapon's sound suppression, making it indispensable on large maps. Alongside this, the SWAT 5.56 Grau Conversion attachment turns the SWAT 5.56 into a versatile automatic weapon. Despite a reduction in damage and range, it compensates with enhanced accuracy and mobility, perfect for players who prioritize agility and tactical movements in their battle strategies.
These additions in Season 03's Battle Pass not only expand the game's weaponry but also enhance the strategic depth, allowing players to further personalize their gameplay experience and adapt to diverse combat situations. Whether you are a sharpshooter or a front-line brawler, these weapons and attachments promise to redefine engagements on the battlefield.

Further into the Battle Pass, the "Most Wanted MVP" AMES 85 Assault Rifle, unlocked at Page 3, touts enhanced range and accuracy, perfect for those who prefer to keep their foes at a distance. Meanwhile, the "Contra-Banned" Stryder .22 Pistol, at Page 6, is styled for stealth operations, allowing players to take on missions where discretion is paramount.
For shotgun enthusiasts, the "Trench Wrecker" Marine SP, available at Page 1, offers a robust, close-quarters combat upgrade that can clear out rooms with ease. Simultaneously, the "Conflict Victor" Feng 82 LMG, available right from Page 1, delivers sustained firepower, ensuring that opponents think twice before initiating an ambush.
Completing these offerings is the "Glint" HDR Sniper Rifle blueprint, accessible at Page 11, featuring White Tracers that dazzle with each lethal shot. This blueprint gives players the upper hand in long-range engagements, making it a prized possession for any sharpshooter.
The array of weapon blueprints in Season 03 doesn't stop there. Players can dive deeper into the Battle Pass to unlock "Industrial" AS VAL Assault Rifle on Page 9 and the reactive "Verderous Menace" CR-56 AMAX on the Completion Page, a nifty option for those who enjoy dynamic weapon aesthetics. BlackCell owners, in particular, can enjoy unique variants of these blueprints, with added effects like Fractal Gold Tracers and Death FX, multiplying the visual impact on the battlefield.
Each blueprint not only offers a visually stunning finish but also tailors the weapon's performance, accentuating specific advantages to suit diverse playstyles.
