How to unlock the Kitsune Operator

Official Character Information:

" Born in Kobe, Kitsune left her family’s organized crime past behind to join Perseus, aligning her values with that set by the new world order they are trying to install. Cautious, thorough, and effective, Kitsune relishes any chance she has to use her enemy’s tools against them."

You can unlock Kitsune by purchasing the Season 5 Battle Pass. Her default Operator Skin is available at Tier 0 and an Ultra-Rarity Operator Skin is available at Tier 100. In addition to this, if you purchase the Battle Pass Bundle during the first two weeks of Season 5, you get access to a limited-time Kitsune Operator Skin.

The Battle Pass Bundle comes with access to the Season 5 Battle Pass and instantly unlocks the first 25 Tiers. The Battle Pass will cost you 1,000 COD Points, with the Battle Pass Bundle setting you back quite a few more.
