How to Use Killstreaks in Call of Duty Warzone

The first and easiest way to get a killstreak is by purchasing one of the four provided at the buy station. Currently, you can get a UAV, Cluster Strike, Precision Airstrike, or Shield Turret for cash.

The second is to get lucky and be given a streak via a loot crate. These can be found throughout the map, rewarding you with a handful of useful items.

Alongside cash and weapons, sometimes you’ll get a killstreak. While we’ve only run into a few of the earlier tier ones already, like turrets, we assume every killstreak you find in Modern Warfare will also appear in Warzone.

It is important to keep in mind that finding these in loot crates is still pretty rare, but will net you some high level loot alongside it.

If you are lucky enough to get one out of a loot crate, using them is as simple as pressing right on the d-pad, just like you would in the rest of the game.

Time needed: 5 minutes

Here’s how to get killstreaks in Call of Duty Warzone:

  1. Go to a buy station and spend cash on a UAV, Cluster Strike, Precision Airstrike, or Shield Turret.

  2. Killstreaks can also be found via RNG in loot crates.

    The odds of getting one are still pretty rare.

  3. Use whatever item you were given by pressing right on the d-pad.

    Killstreaks are all the same as the ones you unlock in Call of Duty Modern Warfare (Cluster Strikes, Turrets, etc.).

That is is everything you need to know about how to use killstreaks in Call of Duty Warzone. If you’re still struggling, be sure to search Twinfinite for more helpful info to help guide you through the chaos of the newest free to play battle royale.
