How do you unlock the SN6?

The SN6 unlocks at Level 24 in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. It is one of the 34 selectable weapons in the original multiplayer launch roster in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare and fills the fast-opening automatic SMG role. Its first three rounds fire faster before the weapon settles into its normal automatic cadence. After reaching a rank-gated launch weapon's level, spend one standard Create-a-Class Unlock Token to equip it. Its camo track finishes at Gold (200 kills with no attachments). Complete every camo challenge on it and Diamond unlocks. Earn Diamond on every camo-eligible launch weapon required in its category for Royalty.

How does the SN6 play in Advanced Warfare?

RoleFast-opening automatic smg
Real-world basisA fictional or substantially redesigned Advanced Warfare submachine gun; no exact production counterpart is asserted
StrengthsIts first three rounds fire faster before the weapon settles into its normal automatic cadence; The SN6 has a defined fast-opening automatic SMG purpose instead of being treated as interchangeable class filler
TradeoffsIf the opening trio misses, the weapon loses the main timing edge that distinguishes it from other SMGs; The SN6 still depends on route choice and first-shot discipline in Advanced Warfare's fast Exo-movement fights
Build and setup guidanceBuild for fast entries and readable close-range sights before trying to stretch the weapon across rifle lanes; A mobility or control choice is more useful when it supports the exact flank you plan to run
Challenge noteThe SN6 uses the smg post-patch challenge profile. Gold is a separate final challenge, then Diamond requires every camouflage challenge on this weapon. Personalization camos and Sentinel do not count.
Progression tipCamo progress is stored on the SN6. Its Diamond completion counts toward Royalty because it is a camo-eligible launch weapon.
Camo tipBreak contact and reset the trigger when possible so the next target receives the faster first three shots.
Compared withThe HBRa3 carries a similar first-three-shot idea in the assault-rifle class; the SN6 applies it to a closer SMG route.

SN6 — common questions

What level does the SN6 unlock at in Advanced Warfare?

The SN6 unlocks at Level 24 in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare multiplayer. After reaching a rank-gated launch weapon's level, spend one standard Create-a-Class Unlock Token to equip it. The level cap is 50, and prestige is 15 original Prestige levels followed by 15 Master Prestige ranks, ending at Grand Master Prestige.

How do you unlock camos on the SN6?

Camo progress is per-weapon. Advanced Warfare has fourteen regular challenge camos followed by a separate Gold challenge on each eligible weapon. The post-patch totals vary by class and, within Specials, by MDL, Crossbow and M1 Irons. Complete every weapon challenge including Gold for Diamond; earn Diamond on the required base weapons in a category for Royalty. Heavy Shield has no camo track. M1 Irons has its own final challenge profile, and the twelve later Supply Drop weapons were released only on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC. On the SN6 the final tier is Gold — 200 kills with no attachments. After that, Diamond needs every camo challenge on the weapon done, and Royalty needs Diamond on every camo-eligible launch weapon required in its category.
