What Are Point Blank Kills - Warzone 2.0

Point Blank kills can be done by eliminating enemy operators less than 5 meters away from you in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (MW2) and Warzone 2.0. Read on to learn how to get point blank kills, a list of Camos unlocked by obtaining point blank kills, and the best strategies for getting kills at point blank range!

What Are Point Blank Kills?

A Close-Range Gun Kill

Point-blank kills are achieved by killing an opponent positioned less than 5 meters away from you. You'll be rewarded with 135 XP for eliminating opponents from this distance.

NOTE: Killing enemies with melee weapons will not count as a point blank kill. You will have to use guns to kill enemies at close-range to register a point blank kill.

Easiest Ways to Get Point Blank Kills



Equip the Double Time Perk to Get Up-Close Enemies

Modern Warfare 2 - Use the Double Time Perk for Point Blank Kills

Double Time allows you to quickly navigate the map and get close to an enemy for an easy point blank kill opportunity, as it prolongs the duration of Tactical Sprint and increases crouch movement by 30%.

As Call of Duty is a game where the heat of the battle around you happens too fast, you'll want to utilize this perk to reposition quickly and sneak up behind your opponents.

Best Perks and Perk Packages

Camp Beside Doorways

On small-scale maps, camping close to a doorway provides the best opportunity for a point blank kill as you won't get suspected by hiding on the corner of the doorway. Before engaging your opponents, wait for them to pass by and shoot them from behind.
