Although guns will always be significantly more useful than batting opponents with a melee weapon in Call of Duty and Warzone, they're incredibly fun to use. They can generate some amazing clips - especially with the likes of the Tonfa.

So, let's check out exactly how to get the Tonfa in MW2 and Warzone 2 when Season 4 arrives on June 14 and how it performs in-game.

How to unlock Tonfa

To unlock the Tonfa melee weapon in MW2 and Warzone 2, you'll need to complete the final Assault on Vondel event challenge coming in Season 4.

To do so, you're going to need to come together as a community and max out the Grand Community Medal count. In doing so, the Tonfa melee weapon will become available for all Operators.

How does the Tonfa perform?

According to the Call of Duty blog, the Tonfa is an 'edgeless melee weapon that delivers blunt trauma without risk of dulling or breaking.'
