Uncovering the Epic Rewards: A Complete Guide to Call of Duty's 20th Anniversary Bonuses

Highlights

To commemorate the 20th anniversary of Call of Duty in October, players are in for a treat with an array of seven in-game rewards. These exciting rewards comprise weapon blueprints and cosmetic items, and can be earned by simply logging in seven times over the course of the next 10 days.

Rewards for players include weapon blueprints inspired by well-known villains and heroes from the Call of Duty series, an animated emblem, a loading screen, a battle token, and an exclusive operator skin. The highlight reward is the "Old School Price" operator skin, which allows players to embody the iconic character of Captain Price as seen in Call of Duty and Call of Duty 2. This exciting skin can even be utilized in the highly anticipated upcoming release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.

Sledgehammer Games took the opportunity to unveil more details about Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 during the Call of Duty Next event, as its closed beta began today and the final release is just a month away. Throughout the event, Sledgehammer Games, along with skilled CoD streamers, provided insight into Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer, Zombies mode, and a range of changes forthcoming in Call of Duty: Warzone.

In addition to gameplay adjustments and additions like the new Urzikstan map and Gulag in Warzone, Call of Duty Next disclosed plans for the franchise's upcoming 20th anniversary in October. Rather than letting this significant milestone pass without recognition, Call of Duty is intelligently embracing the event to appreciate the loyal fans. From October 6 to October 16, players of both Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone can expect a total of seven in-game rewards as a token of gratitude for their longstanding commitment to the series.

Unlock Exclusive 20th Anniversary Rewards

In celebration of Call of Duty's 20th anniversary, a limited-time event in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone will feature seven exciting in-game rewards. To acquire these exclusive items, players only need to log into their preferred Call of Duty title for a minimum of seven days within the next 10 days. By doing so, all die-hard fans can ensure they don't miss out on any of the special 20th anniversary cosmetic rewards on offer.

Upon logging in for the first time, players will be prompted to redeem the initial reward for the Call of Duty 20th anniversary, which is the Villains Weapon Blueprint for the Expedite 12 Shotgun. This blueprint features a new attachment configuration and a skin that showcases General Shepherd, Makarov, and Menendez, three of Call of Duty's most renowned villains, in a charming Chibi art style. On the second day, players will unlock an animated emblem that cycles through all the Black Ops series logos.

By logging in on the third day, players will receive the Sentinel Task Force decal, which has been directly lifted from the protagonist team in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. This decal can be applied to any large weapon in both Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone. On the fourth day, players will be rewarded with the incredibly nostalgic 2009 Feels loading screen, which replaces the usual MW2 and Warzone loading screens with the front cover art of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 from 2009. Finally, on the fifth day, players will unlock the exclusive FTAC Recon Weapon Blueprint called Heroes. Similar to its Villains counterpart, Heroes presents iconic protagonists from various Call of Duty games, such as Ghost from Modern Warfare, in the delightful Chibi art style.

Day six introduces a simple Battle Token as a reward, allowing players to skip one tier of the Season's Battle Pass. However, the most highly anticipated reward awaits on day seven. Players will have the chance to unlock an exclusive Operator skin that transforms their character into the original Captain Price, known as "Old School Price," from the first Call of Duty game released in 2003. Fans will surely want to capture this unique skin, especially since it can be transferred to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 upon its release next month.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is set to launch on November 10 and will be available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
