Warzone Blueprint Blitz Event: How to complete, Weapon Blueprint rewards & end date

The Blueprint Blitz event is now live in Call of Duty: Warzone, allowing players to earn 11 Weapon Blueprints from previous seasons. Here’s everything you need to know, including how to complete it, the rewards, and when it’s due to expire.

Call of Duty: Warzone is now in its second year, with Black Ops Cold War Season 5 being its 10th season overall. Over these seasons, a ton of cosmetic items have been offered to players, such as Charms, Calling Cards, and Weapon Blueprints.

If you’ve missed out on this content, don’t worry, as Raven Software has introduced a new Blueprint Blitz event where you have the opportunity to get your hands on previously released Weapon Blueprints.

Here’s when Warzone’s first Blueprint Blitz event begins, and how to get your hands on these previously-released cosmetics.

Warzone Blueprint Blitz event start & end date

Alongside the announcement that the highly-anticipated Iron Trials ’84 mode has arrived, Raven Software confirmed on September 16 that the Blueprint Blitz event is now live.

The Blueprint Blitz will take place over the weekend, scheduled to end on September 20 at 10 AM ET /1 PM ET / 6 PM BST.

Blueprint Blitz previously went live in August 2021, but Raven Software had to disable it due to an issue.

What is Warzone’s Blueprint Blitz event?

The Blueprint Blitz takes place inside Battle Royale or Plunder: Blood Money, with the Contraband Contract being much more frequent.

Contraband Contracts are rare objectives that pop up in matches of Warzone. You must deliver a package to a helicopter, and if it successfully extracts, you’ll earn a ton of cash and a Weapon Blueprint to keep.

With the Blueprint Blitz event, you’ll have many more opportunities to do these Contraband Contracts. And for completing them during the Blueprint Blitz, you can earn 11 Blueprints from previous seasons.

How to complete Blueprint Blitz event challenge

With the Blueprint Blitz event live in Warzone, the Contraband contract will now spawn after you complete two in-game contracts such as Bounties, Scavengers, or Recons.

Once you’ve completed two contracts in a match of Battle Royale or Blood Money, a Contraband Contract will spawn – appearing as a blue briefcase.

Pick up the Contraband package, and you’ll be instructed to bring it to a helicopter drop zone somewhere else in Verdansk. Bring it to the DZ, press interact, and a helicopter will come and take it away.

Be careful, though, other players can see the plume of smoke and the helicopter fly in. If they kill you before the helicopter extracts the package, they’ll claim the contract for themselves, and you won’t get the Blueprint. This goes both ways though, as you can steal Contraband contracts off enemies.

Once the helicopter successfully has the package, you’ll earn one of the 11 Blueprint Blitz weapon skins. Repeat this ten more times, and you’ll have completed the Blueprint Blitz event.
