Unlocking Raul Menendez

To unlock Raul Menendez, you must purchase the Season 5 battle pass. As is standard with new operators entering the fold, they are only unlocked through purchasing the battle pass. The standard price for the battle pass is 1000 COD Points which comes out to roughly $10, or you can purchase the premium edition of the battle pass for 2400 COD Points which nets you 25 tier skips.

Purchasing the battle pass grants you instant access to the “Ivory Mystique” skin for Raul Menendez. At level 100, you’ll unlock the “Populist Revolutionary” skin for Raul.

Who is Raul Menendez?

Menendez’s organization launched a massive attack on the United States as an act of retaliation based on events that took place during his childhood. His revenge ark spanned the course of 50 years and saw him consistently battle legendary Black Ops character, Frank Woods.
