Unlock all weapon and vehicle camos in Battlefield 6 with our complete guide. Learn how to earn every skin through Weapon Mastery, challenges, and special assignments.
Battlefield 6 brings the franchise roaring back with massive-scale warfare that’s everything fans hoped for. Between piloting jets through intense dogfights and capturing objectives in chaotic infantry battles, there’s plenty to love. But if you’re the type who enjoys grinding for cosmetics, you’re in for a treat—this game has tons of camos to unlock.
The customization system is pretty straightforward once you understand it: most weapon and vehicle camos unlock by leveling up your Mastery with specific equipment. Use a gun enough, and you’ll gradually unlock various camouflage patterns that can then be applied across your entire arsenal. It’s actually a smart system that rewards you for trying different loadouts instead of sticking to one meta weapon.
Let me break down exactly how to earn every single camo in the game, so you can deck out your gear exactly how you want.
Here’s the deal with weapon camos: they’re tied to Weapon Mastery ranks. Every time you get kills, score objectives, or just generally use a weapon in matches, you’re earning Weapon XP. That XP increases your Mastery rank with that specific gun.
The beauty of this system? Once you unlock a camo through one weapon, it becomes universal—meaning you can slap it on any gun you want. So that forest camo you earned by grinding the M4A1? You can throw it on your sniper rifle, LMG, or pistol without any extra work.
To check your progress, head into your loadout’s Weapon Customization section. Your current Mastery rank will be displayed right there. Most camos unlock at specific Mastery milestones (typically ranks 20, 30, or 40), though a few require completing special challenges instead.
Pro tip: If you want to optimize your weapon performance while grinding for camos, check out guides like the best M277 loadout or best M4A1 loadout to make the grind more efficient.
Forest camos are perfect for maps with heavy vegetation. Here’s what you need to grind:

Vehicle customization works similarly to weapons—you’ll earn camos by ranking up your Mastery with different vehicle types. The difference? Vehicle camos unlock based on vehicle categories (Main Battle Tanks, Fighter Jets, etc.) rather than individual vehicles.
Find these skins in the customization menu when modifying your vehicle loadout. Just like weapon camos, once unlocked, they’re universal across all vehicles in your arsenal.

Collectible Hunting Tip: The Canopy Drop camo requires finding all collectibles in the Nile Guard mission. If you’re completionist hunting, also check out collectible guides for Moving Mountains, Night Raid, Operation Gladius, No Sleep, and The Rock.
If you’re coming from Call of Duty expecting a final “completionist” camo like Damascus or Orion, Battlefield 6 takes a different approach. There’s no single ultimate camo for completing all weapon challenges.
However, the game does reward dedication:
So while there’s no universal completion reward, maxing out each weapon and vehicle gives you exclusive, prestigious skins that show off your commitment. Think of it as individual trophies rather than one grand prize.
Focus on weapons you actually enjoy using. Since camos are universal once unlocked, you don’t need to grind every single weapon unless you want those Mastery 50 rewards.
Play the objective. You’ll earn more XP (and therefore Mastery progress) by PTFO rather than just chasing kills. Learn how to spot and ping enemies to support your team while grinding.
Use XP boosters strategically. If you have boosters available, learn how to activate and use them before your grind sessions to maximize efficiency.
Optimize your loadouts. Running the right attachments makes grinding so much smoother. Check out class-specific guides like Support Class loadouts to maximize your effectiveness.
Master movement mechanics. Learning advanced techniques like the combat roll helps you survive longer and rack up more kills per life.
Challenge yourself with assignments. Some camos require specific challenges, so knock those out when they align with your playstyle. The Bullet Storm challenges, Assault Class challenges, Recon Class challenges, Deadeye challenges, Close Quarters challenges, and Danger Close challenges all offer progression opportunities.
Find the right game modes. Different modes reward different playstyles. Check out our game modes guide and maps ranked guide to find what works for your grind.
Battlefield 6’s camo system rewards persistence and versatility. With over 150 weapon camos and 35+ vehicle skins available, there’s plenty to chase. The universal unlock system is actually genius—it lets you show off your hard work across your entire arsenal without forcing you to repeat grinds.
Whether you’re after that sleek Polar Nexus challenge camo or grinding Mastery 50 for those Gold Standard vehicle skins, the journey is half the fun. Plus, trying different weapons to unlock their camos naturally makes you a more well-rounded player.
Want to maximize your performance while grinding? Dial in your best settings and check out the complete weapons list to plan your grind route. And if you need faster progression, our XP farming guide has you covered.
Now get out there and start collecting those camos. Your fully customized arsenal awaits.
