Season three of Black Ops 6 and Warzone is poised to introduce six new weapons, starting with classic Verdansk throwbacks like the CR-56 AMAX and Kilo 141.
Among these new additions, the fifth weapon is a submachine gun known as the Ladra. This weapon draws inspiration from the MPL SMG, featured in Black Ops 1 back in 2010, making it a nostalgic throwback. The Ladra is a fully automatic SMG designed for high fire rates, superb range, and minimal recoil, as detailed by Activision.
“While this SMG may sacrifice power, it compensates with an exhilarating fire rate that remains effective even in mid-range engagements due to its low recoil,” Activision stated in a blog post. “Consider using an Extended Mag to minimize reload time, and aim for headshots to boost your damage output. The Ladra pairs excellently with Scavenger and the Assault Pack, ensuring you have the necessary ammo reserves to maintain relentless damage.”
Here’s what we know so far about the new submachine gun in BO6 and Warzone’s third season.
How to Unlock the Ladra in BO6 and Warzone
The Ladra will be an unlockable weapon available through a mid-season event in BO6 and Warzone, following the Season Three Reloaded update. Details are scarce, including the exact launch date for this update.
The second limited-time event in BO6 this season, titled Black Ops Tribute, is scheduled to run from April 17 to May 1. Consequently, we can speculate that the update may be released on May 1. The Ladra SMG is expected to be the Mastery Reward for this event, which commences shortly after the Season Three Reloaded release.
In previous BO6 seasons, limited-time events have allowed players to unlock weapons, perks, and other items through gameplay. Typical challenges include collecting items dropped by enemies or earning sufficient experience points (XP) during the event. Following each event, these items usually transition into Armory Unlocks in BO6.
Expect to see more details about the Ladra, the associated event for unlocking it, and comprehensive information on Season Three Reloaded in the final week of April, leading up to the update.
This article will be updated with new information as it becomes available.
