Call of Duty: Vanguard is set to be one of the biggest entries into the legendary FPS franchise yet, and we’ve got every Field Upgrade, killstreak, perk, weapon, and equipment coming in the game’s open beta.

Call of Duty: Vanguard’s release date isn’t far away, and players will finally get their hands on the game’s multiplayer experience for the first time with the upcoming open betas.

We already have some major details about the new title, which takes inspiration from Modern Warfare with an identical minimap system while also including Dead Silence as a Field Upgrade, but other than the Champions Hill alpha, we haven’t been able to play it for ourselves.

Thankfully, some content creators got their hands on the game early, and CharlieINTEL were able to have a snoop through the game and discover everything included in the beta. So, we’ve compiled a list of every weapon, killstreak, Field Upgrade, grenade, and more.

Players will have 10 killstreaks to choose from in the Vanguard beta, with the Attack Dogs at 10 kills the highest available.

  • Intel – 3 Kills: Reveals nearby enemies to the summoning player through repeated pings on the minimap over a short period of time. 
  • Care Package – 4 Kills: Drops a single care package which rewards a random killstreak on pickup.
