How to unlock Gold, Diamond, and DM Ultra camos in Black Ops Cold War

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is finally here, and players have already been getting stuck into the camo grind. Here’s how to unlock the Gold, Diamond, and Dark Matter Ultra camos.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has something for everyone, from an action-packed campaign to an incredible multiplayer experience. And of course, let’s not forget about the zombies, which has been an integral part of the game for many years now.
