"Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War" Season 2 introduces the new assault rifle called the FARA 83 and, while considered as “one of the fastest fire rates in its class,” unlocking it is surprisingly easy.

How To Unlock The FAR 83 Assault Rifle

"Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War" players can unlock the new FARA 83 assault rifle through Battle Pass progression. Players need to reach the 15th tier of the Season 2 Pass to get their hands on the powerful weapon. Just like other Seasonal weapons in the game, it is a Free Unlock for all players.

In other words, players who do not buy the Battle Pass can still have the chance to own the weapon by simply playing the game. Reaching Tier 15 in the game could take just a day or two. However, those who want to unlock the weapon as soon as possible can speed up their progress using CoD Points.
