Achievements are much different than Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Challenges as they are exclusive to each platform. Although PlayStation and Xbox often share achievements, there can be some minor variations depending on the title. In this case, the achievement is identical on both platforms.

In the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Campaign mission Echoes of a Cold War, players need to kill an enemy with a secret weapon while ziplining. This creates a two-part problem for players wanting to achieve this, as they must not only get a zipline kill but do it with a weapon they might not have found. The achievement is worth 30 GamerScore on Xbox or One Trophy on PlayStation systems and completing this achievement will take skill and investigation.
Patriot Arrow Achievement
Players will need to navigate through the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Campaign mission until they come across the part where they are falling off the zipline. This is the phase of the mission where players lose their weapons and must navigate through the building in secret. Near the first door players find will be a body with some arrows on it. Simply pick up the arrows and follow the corridor until the path has a window on the right side. Sneak into that room and find the Recurve Bow on top of several wooden crates.
From there, players play through the mission until they once again come across a zipline. This will be shortly after an encounter with an enemy on a turret in a watchtower. Ride the zipline and use the Recurve Bow to kill any of the enemies on the other side. Players who miss on the first shot can revert back to the last checkpoint for additional tries. Once the soldier dies, the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War achievement will be unlocked.
The hardest part of this achievement will be hitting the moving target while ziplining and using a bow. After a few rounds of practice, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War fans are sure to remember why this weapon is not only secret, but also extremely dangerous in the right hands.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is available on PC, Ps4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
