While this event is meant to celebrate the Black Ops franchise, those who exclusively play Warzone can also earn some rewards from this event, including the reprised Thermite Grenade. But before we cover every new reward added in this event, let’s first go over how it works.
What Is The Black Ops Tribute Event?
Black Ops Tribute is an in-game event for Warzone and Black Ops 6 that runs from April 17 to May 1. All XP you earn while playing Black Ops 6 game modes or Warzone BR will contribute towards a reward track that awards unique cosmetics and in-game unlocks at certain intervals.
Unlike past events, Black Ops Tribute has two reward tracks that progress simultaneously. The first reward track is available to Warzone players, including free-to-play users. Owners of Black Ops 6 will be able to access all rewards from the second track, most of which are rewards you can use in MP or Zombies.
Black Ops Tribute Event Rewards
Black Ops Tribute has 11 rewards to earn, 19 if you include the second reward track for Black Ops 6 owners. The standout rewards here are the C9 10mm Conversion Kit, the Close Shave perk for BO6 Multiplayer, the Nail Gun, and the Death Machine scorestreak.
