It’s no surprise that theCall of Dutyfranchise has continuously changed over the years, from simple foot soldier gameplay to be able to command a massive Heavy Chopper. ButCODhas also aesthetically changed since it has featured popular celebrities like Snoop Dog and evenone of the most famous athletes in the world, Messi.

Another unique gameplay aesthetic that has become a pillar in the franchise is finishing moves. And inCall of DutyWarzone 2(andModern Warfare 2), finishing moves have evolved into something spectacular (and humiliating for the victim) to watch. But to perform these moves, players must learn how to equip and execute them during a match.
How to Equip a Finishing Move
Warzone 2finishing move menu is somewhat challenging to find for new players, unlike its predecessor,Warzone,which had a fairly straightforward menu. Hopefully, Infinity Ward adjusts this menu,alongside bringing back some older features that are still missing. From the Main Menu (either from Multiplayer,Warzone 2, or DMZ), players should navigate to theOperatorstab (1). Once at theOperators Selection Menu, players can select eitherSpecgru or Kortac(2) and then pick their preferred Operator (3). Highlighting the Operator, players should press theCustomizehotkey (3).
This will open a new Customization Menu that allows players to change their Operator Skin (like the hilarious Burger King Skin) and Finishing Move. Players should selectOperator Finishing Move(4) and then equip any unlockedFinishing Move(5). Gamers should remember that they’ll need to do the same for each Operator since the selection is limited to the preferred Operator.
Using a Finishing Move in a Match
Players are now ready to jump into aWarzone 2match to see their new finishing move in action. But, of course, players that ownCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2can practice executing these moves in a Private Match against bots. Once in the match, players need tohold the melee hotkey directly behind an enemyplayerto perform the finishing move. Additionally, Infinity Ward decided to visually improve finishing moves by changing the execution animation depending on how the enemy player is positioned (standing, prone, and downed), as long as the player executing is behind them.
As a word of caution, players executing the finishing move aren’t invulnerable, meaning the enemy player’s teammates can kill the player during the animation. So, players should be cautious while performing these moves since it can rob them ofa prestigiousWarzone 2victory.
Warzone 2.0is currently available on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC through Steam and Battle.net.
