The arrival of the Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone Season 2 update marks the addition of a brand new battle rifle known as the SOA Subverter. This hard-hitting rifle is chambered in 7.62 and dominates at mid to longer ranges thanks to its low rate of fire and predictable recoil.

However, unlike other new firearms, such as the RAM-9 and BP50, you can’t unlock the SOA Subverter via the Season 2 battle pass. Instead, the process to unlock the SOA Subverter in Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone is a bit different.

The only way to unlock the SOA Subverter in Warzone and Modern Warfare 3 is by completing certain Weekly Challenges. However, the list of tasks hasn’t been announced yet, as Activision typically shares the details whenever a new season launches. Therefore, you must wait until Season 2 launches for Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone on February 7, 2024, at 9 am PT.

After that, head to the Challenges tab to see the list of tasks you must complete to earn the SOA Subverter. The weekly quests usually require you to get kills with a certain weapon, open chests, or complete contracts. Therefore, unlocking the SOA Subverter won’t be a difficult task.

Moreover, with some fine-tuning, this could be a contender for the optimal Battle Rifle, provided you can mitigate the more leisurely ADS Speed.
