The Eidskallen Event in Black Ops 7 Zombies Season 5 lets you earn free rewards by playing the new Survival map Eidskallen Lighthouse and competing in recurring three-hour leaderboard brackets. Unlike previous leaderboard events, you can enter as many times as you want during the week-long event, giving you multiple chances to improve your placement and unlock better rewards.
Here’s every reward and placement challenge in the Eidskallen Event in BO7 Zombies Season 5, how the leaderboard works, and the event schedule.
All Eidksallen Event rewards and challenges in BO7 Zombies
Below are the rewards you can earn based on your final leaderboard placement after each three-hour bracket in this Black Ops 7 Zombies event. Finishing higher than your previous best unlocks additional rewards over the course of the event.

To maximize your chances of finishing at the top of the leaderboard, I’d suggest you start playing as soon as a new three-hour leaderboard cycle begins. This gives you a better opportunity to compete before other players have posted high scores. Since entries are unlimited throughout the event, don’t hesitate to replay matches until you get first place.
During each run, focus on surviving into the later rounds, as tougher zombies award more points. Prioritize completing map objectives, including T.E.D.D. Tasks, and special rounds whenever possible, as these also contribute to a higher score. Learning the layout of Eidskallen Lighthouse will help you move more efficiently between objectives and pinpoint zombie spawns. If you’re playing co-op, coordinate with your teammates to maximize eliminations and complete objectives faster.
How the Eidskallen Event works in BO7 Zombies
The event uses randomized 30-player leaderboard groups. Players compete by posting their highest score, earning leaderboard points through eliminations and map objective completions on the new Eidskallen Lighthouse Survival map. Tougher enemies, completing map objectives, and finishing special rounds all increase your score.
Each leaderboard lasts three hours instead of the entire event, and you can enter unlimited times to improve your placement in each run. Rewards are distributed after every leaderboard concludes, with additional rewards unlocked whenever you surpass your previous best finish.
