- Within the free Battle Pass
- By owning or acquiring any variant of a gun (uncommon, rare, epic, and legendary)

- All weapon variants of a lower rarity are now camos that can be applied on your base weapon
- More customization – reticles, charms, and stickers are now available for weapons
Weapon XP/Progression
Weapons are all delegated to base types now, like the M4, PDW-57, Type 25, ICR-1, or any of others. Each weapon type has a weapon XP system attached to it, meaning you now level up that weapon type, not the specific variant.
- Your weapon variant with the highest level of that type will determine the player new overall level for that weapon type
- For example, if your highest AK117 variant was level 8 now your overall AK117 level is 8
- Weapon types can be advanced up to level 50+ (varies per weapon)
- Every level you unlock equals a new attachment
