How to get the Blood Cell camo in MW2 and Warzone

Call of Duty’s season five began with a bang. The Faction Showdown limited time event pits Task Force 141 vs. Shadow Company for the first two weeks of the season, with some cool loot for players everywhere to earn, including the Blood Cell camo.

This specific Modern Warfare 2 event has exclusive rewards, but the one that has most players excited is the Blood Cell weapon camo that’s a reward for the Shadow Company side of the battle.

Blood Cell has players bloodthirsty for the camo to equip on all of their favorite weapons, but some conditions need to be met for players to unlock it. It’s going to take some hard work, some skill, and maybe even a little bit of luck to secure it.

Here’s what you need to do to get the Blood Cell camo in MW2.
