The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 cycle is coming to a close as attention turns towards the launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. Despite the cycle entering its final stages, Sledgehammer Games continues to add a wealth of fresh content including free battle passes to entice players back to the virtual battlefield.

The MW3 Rewind event is one of several in-game events taking place during Season 6 and is expected to feature plenty of cosmetics for players to customize their favorite Operators and weapons. Here, find everything there is to know about the MW3 Rewind event in Modern Warfare 3.

What Is The Best Call Of Duty Game In The Series?

We've had so many Call of Duty games throughout the decades, but the original Modern Warfare 2 is still the best, in my opinion. The campaign had a ton of memorable moments, and the multiplayer aspect was awesome, to say the least. 

MW3 Rewind Event Start Date

The Modern Warfare 3 MW3 Rewind event takes place from October 9 and runs until October 16. When the event is live, players have one week to collect all the rewards on offer. A Call of Duty blog reveals players will 'take a walk down memory lane' suggesting there's a chance items from previous seasonal updates will make a return.

Activision also reveals will complete a variety of challenges in order to obtain the rewards up for grabs.

The chances of the MW3 Rewind event following a similar formula to other events that have taken place within Call of Duty throughout the Modern Warfare 3 cycle. To obtain rewards, players must complete set objectives that typically involve scoring kills with a specific weapon category or completing tasks in a particular game mode.

Here are the expected rewards likely to feature in the event:

  • Battle Pass tokens
  • Double XP tokens
  • Calling cards
  • Emblems
  • Weapon charms
  • Weapon camouflages
  • Weapon blueprints
  • Sprays

The MW3 Rewind event is the fifth and final event taking place within Modern Warfare 3. Sledgehammer Games hasn't revealed if there are plans for Warzone to feature in this event, so it's safe to assume it's exclusive to multiplayer and zombies.

As the last event for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, there's every chance Sledgehammer Games brings back plenty of popular items for players to obtain before their focus turns to Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and its first season of post-launch content.
