Activision has confirmed plans to charge players extra to earn the best rewards in its upcoming Squid Game crossover event for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone. The new Event Pass, which includes a free reward track and a premium track with exclusive items, will be available starting January 3.
The premium track, costing 1,100 COD Points ($9.99), offers additional themed rewards, including the coveted Front Man Operator skin. Players can earn the “High Authority” XM4 Assault Rifle Blueprint, Blueprints for other guns, and a Concussion Grenade Equipment Skin by completing the premium track.
This is the first time Activision has launched a premium battle pass in a Call of Duty event, which has sparked negative reactions from the hardcore gaming community. The community is already dealing with issues in Black Ops 6 and Warzone due to cheating and connection problems.
