If you want to become the Triple H ofCall of Duty(wrestling fans know what I’m talking about,) then here’s how to unlock it.

How to get the Sledgehammer inMW3andWarzone

To unlock the Sledgehammer, you’ll need to complete any five ofMW3andWarzone‘s Week 5 challenges. The good news is that you don’t need to complete all five in the same mode, so you can pick and choose across Multiplayer, Zombies, and Battle Royale to find the ones you think will be easiest for you.

We’ve listed the full challenges below.

Once you’ve completed five challenges, the Sledgehammer will be unlocked, and you can add it to any of your loadouts.
