MW3 and Warzone: How to Unlock the Reclaimer 18 Shotgun

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone Season 4 has been action packed from the get-go. Both multiplayer and battle royale are home to an ever-growing arsenal of weapons. The Reclaimer 18 is preparing to join the shotgun category with the MW3 and Warzone Reloaded update.

Activision has described the Reclaimer 18 as “A tactical shotgun that can be fired in both pump-action and semi-auto modes. Pump-action provides superior range while semi-auto increases fire rate.” The ability to switch between two fire rates definitely adds to the gun’s power and versatility, while further customization options such as incendiary or slug ammo can further enhance this.

How to unlock the Reclaimer 18 in MW3 and Warzone

The shotgun can be unlocked via a new sector that’ll be added to the Season 4 battle pass with the Reloaded update. This will be a free sector, so you don’t have to own the battle pass in order to acquire the base version of the weapon. Simply work through all the rewards that feature in the relevant battle pass tier, until you reach the Reclaimer 18 as the final reward.

As always, a new weapon means there are a fresh set of camos tied to that gun. The camos available to earn by completing Reclaimer 18 challenges are Bugged Out, He’s Looking At You, Azure Refract, and Donut Worry.

If you want to bypass the battle pass sector grind, it’s expected that a Reclaimer 18 blueprint will roll out in the store as part of a bundle. Purchasing it will give you instant access to the gun, but with a pre-set combination of attachments.

The Reclaimer 18 will storm onto the MW3 and Warzone scene with the mid-season 4 update which is scheduled to go live on June 26, 2024.
