The Crossbow in MW3 Zombies is an absolute beast of a weapon. It’ll guarantee to mow through everything from Mega Abominations to armored without a single problem. However, it isn’t too easy to find and will take some work.
Get the Crossbow in your MW3 Zombies arsenal
The first way to get it, and one that will guarantee it in your MW3 Zombies arsenal, is by simply unlocking the crossbow in multiplayer. To unlock the Crossbow, you will need to get 50 longshot kills with a Marksman Rifle. However, if you don’t want to grind that out, it is also actually available in-game.
To get your hands on the Crossbow, you’re going to have to make your way deep into the tier 3 zone. Here you will need to search mercenary crates in the hope that you manage to find the weapon. Tier 3 zones are full of the hardest enemies, including the Mega Abomination and some seriously high-level zombies. So, make sure you are geared up the eyeballs with pack-a-punched weapons and plenty of perks.
To keep the weapon, you will need to exfil with it. Only then can it be used in future runs. Getting your hands on it is one thing. Actually surviving the ordeal is another.
If you don’t fancy actually making the effort and heading all the way to the Tier 3 zone, you can also use a friend. If one of your friends has unlocked the Crossbow in MW3 Zombies, they can bring it in for you. They simply need to drop the weapon, and you can then pick it up and use it.
The crossbow is a wonderfully overpowered weapon in Zombies and makes short work of even the hardest enemies. The BrightBlaze bolts use thermite to constantly damage enemies. This means you can simply fire and forget as you collect more plates or deal with the other hordes.
