Call of Duty: Black Ops 6has only been out for three days, but one dedicated grinder already has every Dark Matter weapon camo that multiplayer offers.
Content creator Skullface crowned themselves as the first player to get a Dark Matter weapon camo after a 57-hour grind that only allowed for three hours of sleep. According to onetweet, the longest stretch they were awake was 43 hours. What’s better than that? Sleep. But, also, aroundone day later,they shared that they got the Dark Matter camo for all 33 weapons. A close second, then.
Digging into what that entails, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, like each series entry, has three camo tiers: Military, Special, and Mastery. Completing your Military tier challenges to progress to Special in multiplayer, for example, requires a certain number of headshots. Sticking with multiplayer, you can then take on Gold-specific challenges to unlock that camo before moving on to Diamond, Dark Spine, and then, finally, Dark Matter.
So yeah, Skullface has gone through one heck of a grind – and yet, they’re not done. Dark Matter is the endpoint for multiplayer, but not the likes of Zombies or Warzone. Getting to Zombie’s answer to Dark Matter means grinding through Mystic Gold, Opal, Afterlife, and then, at last, Nebula. Thebest Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 loadoutslook better with a nice skin, after all.
And wouldn’t you know it, that’swhere Skullface is headed next.Rather than getting some deserved sleep, they’re going through the gold skins on that grind. Good luck to ‘em.
