Rivals event in BO6 and Warzone: All free rewards, start and end dates

The unexpected alliance of Stitch and Adler takes center stage in the Rivals event, dropping just ahead of the Black Ops 6 and Warzone season four Reloaded update.

This limited-time event comes loaded with themed rewards that spotlight two of the most iconic and polarizing characters in Call of Duty.

Here’s a quick rundown of everything you need to know about the BO6 Rivals event, including when it goes live, what free rewards are up for grabs, and how to unlock them.

BO6 Rivals event start and end dates

The Rivals event kicks off on June 19 at 11am CT / 9am PT / 12pm ET / 5pm BST and runs until June 26. It was originally set to launch on June 12 but got pushed back by a week. In the meantime, the Ballerina event got an extension and will now wrap up on June 19 instead.

The Rivals event is an XP-based one, and that means you only have to play matches in BO6 Multiplayer, Zombies, or Warzone to progress. The more XP you earn, the more rewards you unlock, including the 3-Round Burst Conversion for the Stryder .22 pistol, the Grim Reaper scorestreak, and the Shatter Blast ammo mod in Zombies.

Here’s a full breakdown of all rewards and how much XP you’ll need to unlock each one:

15,000 XP
Double weapon XP token (30 minutes)

Mastery reward

You need to earn a total of 622,000 XP to grab all the rewards and unlock the Jackal PDW Sworn Rivals blueprint mastery reward, which also has a cool BlackCell version if you own one. That’s a lot of XP to earn, and you only have one week to grind it.

Fortunately, there’s a double XP weekend event that’s going live on June 19 and will last for a few days to help you with the grind. Check out the double XP event schedule in our guide.
