Rebirth Island Event live in Call of Duty: Warzone

With the launch of the new Warzone map, Rebirth Island, comes the Rebirth Island Event, with challenges to complete and free in-game items to earn.

Black Ops Cold War x Warzone Season 1 has now started, which has brought a new Warzone map, Battle Pass, and Cold War’s weapons to Warzone.

Rebirth Island was first teased in the roadmap for Cold War Season 1, followed by much speculation and several leaks. Now, it’s finally here, along with brand new Warzone game mode ‘Resurgence.’

As many predicted, Rebirth Island is a remodel of Black Ops 4: Blackout’s Alcatraz Island. It’s a small Warzone map separate from Verdansk and currently only holds around 40 players.

A new game mode, Resurgence, comes with it. This game mode is built around fast-place battle royale action, whereas long as a squad member is still alive, you can keep respawning.

The Gulag has also been removed, so your teammate must survive a countdown to bring you back into the action. This game mode comes with its own Seasonal Event.

From December 16 until January 4, the Rebirth Island Event is live in Call of Duty: Warzone. Similar to October’s The Haunting of Verdansk, there are challenges to complete with cosmetic rewards to earn.

Complete all 16 challenges to earn “Calling Cards, Charms, Emblems, Stickers, the ‘Noxious’ LMG Blueprint, and more.” Treyarch has also teased there will be additional secrets to discover on Rebirth Island as the Season progresses.

The challenges are simple but could be time-consuming. Also, unlike the Haunting of Verdansk event, they must be completed in the new game mode.

Some are easy, such as ‘Complete any 30 contracts on Rebirth Island,’ and ‘open 100 crates.’ Others can be quite tricky, like getting three kills or assists from inside a vehicle. The new helicopter with a minigun strapped to the side may help with this, however.

After completing all 16 challenges, you’ll earn the ‘Hazardous’ Blueprint for Black Ops Cold War’s Krig 6 Assault Rifle. This is toxic gas-themed, which perfectly fits Rebirth Island’s origin as a chemical weapon development facility.

Be sure to complete all of the challenges over the festive period to unlock the free items.
