How Does The '90s Action Heroes Event Work in Black Ops 6 & Warzone?

Following the trend of past events, most notably Rivals from Season 4, '90s Action Heroes is an XP-based event. To progress through the event, players will need to accumulate XP across Multiplayer, Zombies, or Warzone and reach specific milestones. Each milestone unlocks a specific reward, which will be granted immediately once players have earned enough XP.

Players must earn a total of 626,000 XP to unlock every milestone reward for the '90s Action Heroes Event. Furthermore, players can also unlock two additional Mastery Rewards upon completing the event, with one being entirely free while the other is reserved for BlackCell Pass owners.
