How to unlock Black Ops \u2018Icons\u2019 characters in Blackout \u2013 Reznov, Mason, Woods, and Menendez In addition to the host of other changes that came with the November 13 Black Ops 4 update, Blackout players now have new character missions to tackle. Character missions task players with exploring Blackout\u2019s map in search of special items that will eventually unlock exclusive character skins for the game mode. The challenges for the Multiplayer Specialist were included with the game\u2019s release, while the Zombies characters from both the Voyage of Despair and IX maps were included in the November 6 update. The newest characters to unlock for Blackout are various \u2018Icons\u2019 who have played a major role in the Call of Duty franchise over the years. All the requirements to unlock each of these four special characters can be found below. Reznov The road to unlocking Reznov begins with a trip to the Estates to locate the Russian\u2019s trademark hat, called the \u201cUshanka Hat\u201d in-game. Once you pick up the hat, you must kill an enemy at \u201cextreme range.\u201d While no specific range was given in the challenge, many players have discovered that anything over 200 meters seems to do the trick. After securing your kill, you must finish the match with the hat in your inventory while finishing in the Top 5 for Solos, Top 3 for Duos, and Top 2 for Quads. Mason To start this challenge, you\u2019ll need to first make your way to a Supply Drop in search for the \u201cStained White T-Shirt\u201d item. The next part starts off as a bit of a mystery as players are asked to \u201cWake the Sleeper Agent.\u201d You\u2019ll have to head to Array and activate the Emergency Broadcast button located in the Radio Tower to complete this portion of the challenge. After waking the Sleeper Agent, you\u2019ve got to hold onto the Stained White T-Shirt and then finish in the Top 3 for Solos, Top 2 for Duos, and secure a win in Quads to unlock the character. Woods Woods\u2019 character mission involves a bit of nostalgia as players will need to find the \u201cWoods\u2019 Bandana\u201d item that\u2019s located in the original Black Ops helicopter spawn to the north of the Firing Range. Once you have the bandana, you\u2019ll need to hop inside the helicopter and fly in it for at least 30 seconds to a minute to complete the second portion of the challenge. After that\u2019s complete, you have to win your match with the bandana in your inventory and Woods\u2019 challenge will be complete. Menendez To unlock the main antagonist from Black Ops 2, you must first head to a Supply Drop to find the \u201cLocket\u201d item. With the locket in tow, you\u2019ll then need to kill an enemy with both a shotgun and a melee attack, which could prove to be a bit tough. As with the Bruno challenge, we recommend finding the Brawler perk for the melee portion of this one. At that point, you\u2019ll simply need to finish the match with no specific placing while the locket is in your inventory and the final \u2018Icons\u2019 character will be yours.
