The Marshal has two methods of unlocking in Warzone and Black Ops Cold War, either by completing in-game challenges or by purchasing a store bundle.

The in-game challenges are divided into standard and zombie game mode objectives as follows:

In Black Ops multiplayer or Warzone matches:

  • Using pistols, get a Headshot kill in 15 different completed matches.

How to unlock the Marshal in Zombies:

  • Using pistols, kill 30 Disciples while they have at least five Zombies under their control.

For the headshot challenge, players must get one headshot in 15 different games, but progress will only count when players see the games through to completion. Abandoning the game midway will not count as progress towards the challenge.

If grinding out challenges isn't something players are keen on, The “Powder Keg” bundle is also available for purchase for 1,100 CoD Points. The bundle includes:

  • Legendary Matchlock blueprint for the Marshal
  • Legendary Classic Marshal weapon charm
  • Epic Disconnect finishing move
  • Epic Gray Reaper emblem,
  • Epic Side by Skull sticker
  • One battle pass tier skip
