How to Unlock the CR-56 AMAX in Black Ops 6 & Warzone

After years of players trying to recreate its iconic loadout, the CR-56 AMAX is finally making its official return in Black Ops 6 Season 3. One of the most legendary assault rifles in Warzone history, the AMAX was known for its superb handling, low recoil, and devastating time-to-kill speed in short to medium-range gunfights.

Fans have been eagerly requesting its comeback, and now, with Season 3, their wish has been granted.

How to Unlock the CR-56 AMAX in Warzone & Black Ops 6

The CR-56 AMAX can be unlocked by completing Page 6 of the Season 3 Battle Pass. Since it’s a High-Value Target (HVT) reward, players must first unlock all other rewards on the page before spending their final Battle Pass token to obtain the weapon.

The best part? It’s a free unlock, meaning players can add it to their arsenal even without purchasing the Season 3 Battle Pass.

What to Expect from the CR-56 AMAX

Treyarch provided an official description of the returning assault rifle:

“This lightweight 7.62 x 39mm full-auto assault rifle is compact and powerful. Built exclusively for military use, the standard-issue rifle is deadly in mid-range combat and easily configured for various assault tactics.”

The developers also teased how the AMAX will fit into Season 3’s meta:

“Combining high-damage hits with a fast fire rate and good handling, the CR-56 AMAX is the perfect mid-range weapon for downing targets fast. Eliminate enemies in three to four shots up to 25 meters out, leaving plenty left over to chew through equipped armor.”

With its high damage output and excellent versatility, the CR-56 AMAX is set to be a must-have weapon in Season 3—both for veterans nostalgic for its Warzone dominance and new players eager to test its power.
