The path to Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s R1 Shadowhunter could have been smoother, but it seems the Shadowhunter’s troubles are still ongoing.
Developer Raven Software said on Twitter they’re aware of issues with the game not allowing people who purchased the Shadowhunter bundle to equip the weapon.
Purchasing the weapon was given as an alternative to completing Cold War’s 15 One Shot, One Kill challenge requirement, a challenge whose progress some players found reset following the accidental Shadowhunter release.
The can’t equip Shadowhunter issue is still quite new, new enough where it doesn’t even display on Raven Software’s board of known issues where they post updates.
