Black Ops 7 has launched its first major in-game competitive event of the year with the Proving Grounds Multiplayer Event, a limited-time mode that pits players against 30 others in a race for exclusive rewards and leaderboard glory. Designed to test your merit in multiplayer matches, Proving Grounds ranks every competitor into the same playing field and challenges them to climb as high as possible over the next six days.

Players earn score based on their performance in each match, which means players will have to focus on kills & the objective to get that score per minute as high as possible. As you climb the ranks, you’ll unlock a series of rewards at the end of the Event. Most notably, two exclusive Proving Grounds camos and a special M15 MOD 0 weapon blueprint that can only be obtained during this event. Whether you’re pushing for the top spot or just looking to secure the limited cosmetics before they disappear, every match counts. Before are the three BIG rewards you can unlock!

  • Finishing Top 5 on the Leaderboard earns the 'Reverence' Camo

  • Finishing Top 15 on the Leaderboard earns the 'Burial Grounds' Camo

  • Earning 80,000 overall score over the duration of the event unlocks the 'Drop'em' Blueprint for the M15 MOD 0

With only a short window to earn rewards and secure your rank, the Proving Grounds event is the perfect early test for players looking to sharpen their skills. Jump in, rack up score, and see how high you can climb before the event closes. Currently, there are three modes to play in to earn. Those are Nuketown 24/7, 20v20 Skrimish, and Overload. Good luck & have fun!
