Camo Challenges have become part ofCall of Dutysince the release ofCall of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Ever since then, players have spent countless hours trying to obtain every Mastery Camo in everyCODgame, regardless of how difficult they may be. And while these Mastery Camos don’t offer any “buffs,” they giveModern Warfare 2players bragging rights since some challenges require real skill to complete (like the launcher and melee challenges).

And now, with the newly revamped Gunsmith inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, players can expect to have to complete a whole new set of Camo challenges. But since the new Gunsmith features weapon variants instead of the traditional weapons, some players may be lost when it comes to Mastery Camos. That’s why this guide will break down therequirements for every Mastery Camoso that players can get their hands on the elusive Orion Camo.
Base Camos
Every primary customizable Gunsmith weapon (weapons with attachments, like SMGs, Sniper Rifles, etc.) will have four Camo Challenges:
Non-customizable Gunsmith weapons (launchers, melee, etc.) will only require the first or second Camo Challenge to unlock the Base Camo. Once a player obtains all the Base Mastery Camos for a specific gun, it’ll unlock the Gold Camo Challenges for that weapon.
Gold Camos
Unlike previous titles, Gold Camo Challenges will be the same for all weapons, but the number of kills without dying may vary from weapon to weapon
Once the player completes the Gold Camo Challenge, they’ll unlock the Gold Camo for that weapon. Somegame modes inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, like Team Deathmatch and Hardpoint, will make this camo challenge much easier to complete.
But, to move onto the Platinum Mastery Challenges, players must complete a minimum number of Gold Camo Challenges in a specific weapon category.
Platinum Camo
The minimum number of Gold Camo Challenges hasn’t been officially released. But going by previousCODentries, players should expect to have to complete at least 5 Gold Camos within a weapon category. As for Platinum Camo Challenges, no requirements have been released, but Infinity Ward has mentioned they will be the same for all weapons.
In total, there are nine weapon categories:
Once players obtain 51 Platinum Camos across different weapon categories, they’ll unlock the Polyatomic Camo. But, for a gun to unlock the Polyatomic Camo, it has to have all previous Camo Masteries (Base, Gold, and Platinum).
Polyatomic Camo
Every weapon will have a different Polyatomic Camo Challenge, meaning the M4 Assault Rifle will have a different challenge than the AK47 Assualt Rifle, regardless if they are in the same weapon category.
The Polyatomic Camo Challenges will be the ultimate test forCall of Dutyplayers, meaning the challenges will be anything but easy. Once players unlock 51 Polyatomic Camos, they can use the Ultimate Mastery Camo: Orion.
Orion Camo
Once a player unlocks a Polyatomic Camo on a weapon, they’ll be able to automatically equip the Orion Camo without needing to complete any additional Camo Challenge. But the journey isn’t over since unlocking the Orion Camo opens up a new set of tasks: Weapon Camo Mastery Challenges.
Weapon Camo Mastery Challenges
Players can complete Camo-specific challenges that unlock emblems, calling cards, and weapon charms after unlocking the Orion Camo on a weapon. While the complete list of challenges hasn’t been released,Infinity Warddid share an example of them:
Hopefully, this remains the same, but players shouldn’t be surprised if they add more complex challenges like “killing x number of armored enemies” (which are among the toughest enemies inModern Warfare 2).
Each Camo Mastery Challenge unlocks a unique reward, and once the player completes all four challenges, they’ll be rewarded with a Weapon Charm.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2is currently available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
