The concept of a killstreak in Call of Duty is simple: get a bunch of kills without dying and be rewarded with tools that allow you to keep on killing.
Call of Duty: Vanguard’s World War II setting brings some very interesting killstreaks. Due to the technology at the time, some of the killstreaks are a bit more brutal than some may be used to, but that makes them that more satisfying to unlock.
The new Champion Hill mode also has its own set of killstreaks that operate outside of the core game’s streaks. Streaks include gaining a piece of armor, an additional life, or even calling in a V2 Rocket that wipes out the field and ends the game.
There are plenty of other killstreaks in the main game, too, like the Flamenaut. This one equips you with a flamethrower that has unlimited fuel and a protective suit, but you lose both when you die. The battlefields of World War II were not for the faint of heart.
Here are all of the known killstreaks in Vanguard.
