To perform an execution in Warzone, you need to follow these simple steps:

  1. Approach an opponent from behind.
  2. Hold down the melee button.

The melee button is in the right stick on Xbox and PlayStation and V on PC. Hold this when you are near the enemy. The sequence should trigger the finishing move animation, resulting in a takedown of the opponent.

While these steps may seem straightforward, many players don't find the proper angle to perform the finishing move. It's important to ensure that you are directly behind the enemy for the move to go through.

You should also be cautious while executing an enemy, as the animation can be interrupted if you are downed by another enemy during the process. Thus, it's best to perform it in a clear area free from other opponents. Stay aware of your surroundings to enhance the chances of a successful execution.
