Events Detailed Thus Far:

$1 Million Call of Duty Operation - Call of Duty^® XP presents the most high-stakes multiplayer gaming tournament ever devised, featuring an unprecedented $1 million in cash and prizes. Thirty-two four-man teams will wage war in a savage single-elimination bracket competition, in front of the cameras and thousands of fans.

Prizes - Call of Duty^® XP embraces players of all skill levels with numerous gaming competitions throughout the weekend.

Run The Pit - Navigate The Pit, IRL. For the first time ever, players will have the opportunity to speed-run the infamous Modern Warfare 2^® training sequence in real life, replicated onsite down to great detail. Prizes and bragging rights are available to top finishers.

Battle in the Scrapyard - Two teams will enter this astonishing real-world recreation of Modern Warfare 2^®‘s fan-favorite Scrapyard level. Only one will exit.

Grab a bite at Burgertown - The only thing cooking at this full-scale replica of Modern Warfare 2^®‘s beloved Burger Town is lunch, not grenades. Take a break from battle to refuel with a Burger Town Classic or Chicken Burger, crispy or grilled. Burcak’s Sundae shake, while delicious, will not provide immunity to zombies.

Explore the Call of Duty Armory - A unique opportunity to view Call of Duty^®‘s vast arsenal in person. Browse weapons and combat gear, Call of Duty^®concept art and research, and explore the history of one of the most celebrated franchises in gaming.
