Call of Duty Black Ops 7 beta has started, and Activision has made sure you get some exclusive limited-time rewards simply by watching livestreams on Twitch.
At the time of writing, BO7 is having its early access beta, and the open beta period is set to start on Oct. 5. While waiting for the open beta, you can watch streams anytime you want over this period, and earn rewards by doing so.
The stream rewards include weapon blueprints, emblems, calling cards, and weapon charms. You can unlock them by watching the drop-enabled gameplay streams for specific durations. Here’s everything you need to know about getting Black Ops 7 beta stream rewards.
Make sure to link your accounts first
First things first, get your Activision and Twitch accounts linked. You can either do that from the Connections page of your Twitch account.
Alternatively, you can head to the official Call of Duty site, log in, and head to the “Account Linking” section in your profile to connect your Twitch account.
If you’d like, you can also link other gaming platforms you play on, such as PlayStation, Xbox, Steam, or Battle.net. This is essential because only linked accounts can receive the Twitch drops for Black Ops 7.
All BO7 beta Twitch rewards and how to get them
There are four rewards to earn from Twitch during the beta period. Here’s a rundown of all of them, along with the duration you need to watch the livestreams to get each item:
- Watch for one hour to get the “Beta – Going Live!” emblem
- Watch for two hours to get the “Beta Prepped” calling card
- Watch for three hours to get the “Third Eye” weapon charm
- Watch for four hours to get the “Helm Piercer” weapon blueprint for the VS Recon sniper rifle
As you meet each timed milestone, you’ll automatically unlock these rewards. All you need to do is remain in the stream for the required time.
How to claim BO7 beta stream rewards
After earning each drop, head to your Twitch inventory to claim the rewards. They will show up in your linked Activision account and will be available to use in the beta right away. The items will carry over to the full game at launch.
If you don’t have access to the early access beta, you can still claim them beforehand and use them during the open beta later.
