Platinum is the 2nd Completionist camo in Modern Warfare 4, right after Gold.

A weapon class gets its Platinum challenge once every gun in that class has Gold.

The task depends on the class. Assault Rifles need 50 headshots in Multiplayer. SMGs need 25 kills from behind.

Each gun then clears the class task on its own to show Platinum.

A PRO can earn Platinum on your account, on all 33 launch guns or on the classes you pick.

Every Platinum challenge by weapon class

Here is the Platinum task for each of the 9 weapon classes, in Multiplayer and in DMZ.

The launch example is the Assault Rifle class: all 8 rifles needed Gold before the rifle Platinum task opened.

You can finish a Platinum task in Multiplayer, in DMZ or with a mix of both.

Since Season 1, Warzone counts too, with targets of its own.

Platinum on the camo ladder: Gold before, Harmonic Break after

Platinum sits in the middle of the Completionist set. 1 step comes before it and 2 come after.

Completionist camoWhat opens it
Gold8 Military and 3 Special camos on the gun, then 15 kills in 1 Multiplayer match
PlatinumGold on every gun of the class, then the class task
Harmonic BreakPlatinum tasks done on 33 weapons
Divergence33 Harmonic Break challenges

Missing Gold on 1 gun keeps the whole class waiting. Here is how to get Gold camo gun by gun.

After Harmonic Break comes Divergence, the end of the set. Read how to get Divergence camo for its 33 tasks.

The mastery camos past that point are in the MW4 mastery camo guide.

Tips: classes that share a Platinum task

Several classes share the same kind of Platinum task, so you can work on them together.

  1. Kills from behind: SMGs and Pistols. Flank routes give both classes their count.
  2. Prone kills: Marksman and Sniper Rifles. Hold a long lane lying down and swap between the 2 classes.
  3. Kills without dying: LMGs and Melee. Both ask for 3 kills in 1 life, 15 times.
  4. Shotguns: hipfire. Close maps keep the fights inside shotgun range.

For matches against bots, the MW4 bot lobbies guide explains what counts toward camos.

Platinum in Season 1: 2 new guns

Season 1 started on 6 November. 2 new guns came with it, the CSG-35 SMGs and the Cronen Osprey assault rifle.

On 7 November, Platinum challenges for those 2 guns were listed as not tracking.

Fixes are listed in the update notes. The MW4 patch notes page collects every update.

What a Platinum order includes

A Platinum order is played by hand on your account by a PRO.

Pick a start: from zero with weapon levels and every camo before Platinum, with Gold on part of the guns, or with Gold already finished.

If every gun has Gold, the order can also cover only the weapon classes you name.

Harmonic Break, the next step, is a separate order.

Start on the MW4 Platinum camo page.
