The start of a new Call of Duty season means the arrival of new Operators into the roster. Season 5 of Warzone and Vanguard is no different. Last Stand will see the arrival of four new characters into the battle royale and multiplayer. With the focus on legendary villains returning, players are wondering how to unlock Menendez who first appeared in Black Ops 2.
Menendez joins the Operator roster as part of Task Force Tyrants who have dropped an unknown package into Caldera's Peak. There's a high chance the package will have some kind of impact later on in the season.

How to unlock Menendez
The process of unlocking Menendez in Warzone and Vanguard is incredibly straightforward. You can get your hands on the Operator by purchasing the Season 5 battle pass and unlike other items, there's no need to reach a specific tier.
Menendez and the Ivory Mystique Operator skin is available at Tier 0 of the battle pass meaning you can use the character as soon as you can purchase the new season's battle pass.

Alongside Menendez, there are three other Call of Duty villains making their way to both games in Season 5. Long-time Modern Warfare antagonist Khaled Al-Asad heads to the Pacific alongside Gabriel T. Rorke, and He "Seraph" Zhen-Zhen.
The three remaining characters will launch as part of their own bundles over the course of Season 5. Instead of unlocking them, you'll have to part ways with some COD Points to expand your collection.
