A bug in Warzone Season 3 is allowing players to unlock the new AMP63 pistol even though the pistol has yet to be officially released.

Activision teased the AMP63 for a Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Season 3 release ahead of the season's start, but ultimately held the gun back to release later in the season rather than on launch day. Although the mid-season update is still more than a week away, players have found they can unlock and use the AMP63 in both Warzone and Black Ops Cold War.

thatThe Warzone challenge for unlocking the gun requires killing five enemies with a pistol in 20 different matches. The challenge is already live in Warzone despite official recognition from Activision. This allows players to unlock the gun what appears to be ahead of schedule.

The AMP63 is a cross between a self-loading pistol and a fully automatic submachine. Its high fire rate makes it one of the most powerful pistol options in the game.
