You may have seen plenty of talk surrounding the weapon online, and this is because it has been leaked by a couple of reliable CoD news sources.<\/p>\n<p>While not officially confirmed to be in the game by Activision, the nuke looks to be in Warzone 2. As tweeted by ModernWarzone (a Warzone news Twitter account), the nuke is very much in Warzone 2. The account details that \u201cyou can nuke the entire battle royale map\u201d in the game and was \u201ctold that it is possible\u201d but added that it is \u201cextremely difficult to pull off\u201d.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"&quot;twitter-tweet&quot;\" data-dnt=\"&quot;true&quot;\"><p lang=\"&quot;en&quot;\" dir=\"&quot;ltr&quot;\">You can nuke the entire battle royale map in <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Warzone2?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&quot;\">#Warzone2<\/a>. Nobody managed to do it today but we were told that it is possible, although EXTREMELY difficult to pull off.<\/p>\u2014 ModernWarzone (@ModernWarzone) <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/twitter.com\/ModernWarzone\/status\/1590522866239696897?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&quot;\">November 10, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><script async=\"\" src=\"&quot;https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js&quot;\" charset=\"&quot;utf-8&quot;\"\/><p>This is further backed up by reliable Call of Duty leaker TheGhostOfHope, who also tweeted \u201cyou can get a nuke in Warzone 2.0\u201d.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"&quot;twitter-tweet&quot;\" data-dnt=\"&quot;true&quot;\"><p lang=\"&quot;en&quot;\" dir=\"&quot;ltr&quot;\">You can get a nuke in Warzone 2.0.<\/p>\u2014 Hope (@TheGhostOfHope) <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheGhostOfHope\/status\/1590443321117134848?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&quot;\">November 9, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><script async=\"\" src=\"&quot;https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js&quot;\" charset=\"&quot;utf-8&quot;\"\/><p>As leaks suggest, you can nuke the entire map with the weapon, meaning that using the nuke should grant the player an instant win. How exactly the nuke will work and what it does, however, is still up in the air. Despite the leaks, no one has seen the nuke in action \u2013 but some details regarding how to unlock it have been unveiled.<\/p> <h2><b>How to get the Warzone 2 nuke<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Without official confirmation, it\u2019s not known exactly how you get the nuke in Warzone 2, but some details have been leaked. We believe, based on leaks, that the nuke won\u2019t be given out as a killstreak reward as it is in other CoD online multiplayer modes. It should instead be awarded as a <b>special contract<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>ModernWarzone explains that the nuke in Warzone 2 is \u201cnot based off of going on a high kill streak\u201d and that they \u201cwere told it\u2019s a special contract that doesn\u2019t spawn in every game\u201d. It\u2019s added, too, that the Warzone 2 nuke special contract \u201cis extremely difficult to complete\u201d.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"&quot;twitter-tweet&quot;\" data-dnt=\"&quot;true&quot;\"><p lang=\"&quot;en&quot;\" dir=\"&quot;ltr&quot;\">It\u2019s not based off of going on a high kill streak.
