How to Unlock Weapons in Battlefield V

Find out what you’ll need to do to unlock new weapons, where to find them, and how to equip them.

Back to Tips & Tricks

LevelCap takes you through the basics of unlocking new weapons in this BattlefieldV video.

When you first enter the battlefield you’ll have one primary weapon available for each Class, but by playing, earning XP, and gaining rank, other weapons will become available. You’ll be able to unlock your first new weapon at rank five by going to the Armory tab on the main menu, where you’ll find your reward icons.

Does new always mean better? Not necessarily. The starter weapons for each Class are quite powerful in their own right, and thanks to weapon specialization, can be refined to really suit your individual playstyle.

Have some more questions? Find your answers on our Battlefield V Boot Camp page.
