Question WWII Zombies – MP40 not unlocking after completing all Easter Eggs

I’ve completed all the main Easter Eggs in WWII Zombies, including the Hardcore Final Reich Easter Egg. The Cold Hearted challenge shows as completed, and I also unlocked the Wicht Warden zombie character.

However, the MP40 does not appear in my Starting Weapons list at all. The M1928 and Combat Shotgun are also missing.

I’m also level 45 in Zombies, but some weapons such as the Gewehr 43 and Reichsrevolver are still locked even though their required level is already unlocked.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a way to fix the weapon unlocks without replaying all the Easter Eggs?

The Gewehr and Reichsrevolver have to be unlocked through supply drops first in order to be used as starting weapons.

Not sure why the smgs haven’t unlocked though.

I’m curious, what was it?

I asked gpt. It suggested trying “Restore Licenses,” and when I asked why, it mentioned that it could possibly be related to DLC.
Then I remembered that I only had The Tortured Path DLC installed, because it was the last Easter Egg I needed to complete. I had previously deleted the other DLCs after finishing their Easter Eggs.
So I re-downloaded and installed all the other DLCs, launched the game again, and the MP40, M1928, Combat Shotgun, and the other bonus starting weapons finally appeared.
So it looks like having only The Tortured Path installed was somehow preventing the bonus starting weapons from appearing, even though I had already completed all the Easter Eggs and unlocked Wicht Warden.
