How to get a nuke in Warzone Resurgence

A challenge worth completing.

The Warzone Season 3 update added a Champions Quest contract to Rebirth Island. The contract works similarly to how it does on Urzikstan, but there are a few significant differences that need explaining. Here is everything you need to know about getting a nuke in a Resurgence match.

How to get a nuke on Rebirth Island in Warzone

  1. Win five consecutive matches in Resurgence or standard battle royale
  2. Pick up the Champions Quest contract, which is marked by a parachute with a star in the middle
  3. Acquire all four elements
  4. Construct the bomb
  5. Defend the bombsite until it goes off

After picking up the Champions Quest contract, squads have 10 minutes to collect all three elements. Each element drops after an 11-minute timer, but kills, contracts, buy station purchases, and chests reduce the time. The fastest way to reduce the timer is to purchase items at a buy station. Players can also use the unidentified phone item which is located in the Headquarters POI vault after using the Biometric Scanner 27 days in a row. The phone gives you $500 to $1000 every 30 seconds, which also lowers the nuke timer by up to 11 seconds every 30 seconds.

After collecting all three elements, the bomb drops from the sky, and the squad must insert all of the elements. After that, the nuke gets armed, and a two-minute detonation timer starts. If players complete the detonation process without an enemy defusing the bomb, the match ends, and the squad successfully completes the Resurgence Champions Quest.
