Activision has officially announced one of Call of Duty’s wildest crossovers yet: a full Beavis & Butt-Head Event Pass for Black Ops 6 and Warzone. Launching on July 2, 2025 with the big Season 4 Reloaded update, the event brings the goofy humor and iconic style of Mike Judge’s famous MTV characters into the world of Call of Duty.
This crossover follows past events like Squid Game and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. But the use of cel-shaded cartoon characters shows how far Activision is willing to go to mix humor and absurdity into its military shooter series.
Event Details
- Start Date: July 2, 2025
- Event Type: XP-based progression
- Available In: Multiplayer, Warzone, and Zombies
- Total Rewards: 16 (split between free and premium tracks)
- Premium Pass Price: 1,100 COD Points (~$9.99)
Players can earn XP across all game modes to unlock rewards as they hit milestones. While Activision hasn’t confirmed the exact XP needed, fans believe finishing the whole event will take around 350,000 XP.
The event is also tied in with other Season 4 Reloaded content, including:
- The return of Fringe, a classic map from Black Ops 3
- A brand-new multiplayer map called Eclipse
- The new Resurgence Casual mode in Warzone, which mixes 12 real players with 32 bots. Matches in this mode don’t affect player stats, making it perfect for casual or new players.
Gameplay Features for the Event
The event includes a few features to help players unlock everything:
- XP Tokens: Double XP tokens help players level up faster. Saving tokens for this event or joining community XP weekends can speed things up.
- Cross-Mode Progression: Unlike some older events that locked progress to certain modes, players can earn XP in Multiplayer, Warzone, or Zombies for this event, cutting down the grind.
- Cosmetic and Functional Rewards: While many rewards are purely cosmetic like skins and emotes, the event also offers useful unlocks like the SVD Full Auto Conversion attachment and the Olympia Shotgun, giving players reasons to participate even on the free track.
One highlight drawing lots of chatter online is the SVD Full Auto Conversion. This new attachment turns the normally semi-automatic sniper rifle into a fully automatic weapon, dramatically changing its fire rate and handling.
Free Track Rewards
Even players who don’t pay for the premium track will have plenty to unlock, including:
- “Coach Buzzcut” Operator – A new character inspired by Beavis & Butt-Head’s strict gym teacher
- “Todd” Operator – Another character from the show
- Rev Renegade Emblem
- Coach Rage Sticker
- SVD Full Auto Conversion Attachment – Boosts fire rate and changes handling, useful in Multiplayer and Warzone
- Olympia Shotgun – A classic shotgun returning for close-range fights
- Pickaxe Melee Weapon – A unique new melee option
- 1-hour Double XP Token
There’s also been confusion about skins. Two operator skins — Coach Buzzcut and Todd — are completely free in the event’s base track, so players don’t have to pay to unlock every new character skin. The premium Beavis and Butt-Head skins, however, require buying the premium pass.
Premium Track Rewards
The Premium Track costs 1,100 COD Points (~$9.99) and includes instant and milestone-based unlocks:
- Beavis Operator Skin – Instant unlock when buying the pass
- Butt-Head Operator Skin – Unlocked at the end of the premium track
- Frog Smacker Melee Blueprint – A cartoon-style bat skin
- “Dumbass” Finishing Move – A kick animation inspired by Butt-Head’s classic insult
- Hot Cheese Saug SMG Blueprint – Features cel-shaded visuals
- Death Rock AK-74 Blueprint – Also cel-shaded
- Cornholio Gunscreen – A custom HUD element based on Beavis’s alter ego
- “We Rock” Emote – Mimics Butt-Head’s famous head-banging dance
Some fans wondered if these skins and emotes come with new voice work. Good news: several premium items include original voice lines recorded just for the game, rather than simply recycling clips from the TV show.
Additional Beavis & Butt-Head Bundle (Tracer Pack)
Besides the event pass, Activision is launching a separate Beavis & Butt-Head bundle on July 5, 2025. Highlights include:
- Recon Beavis and Infil Butt-Head Operator Skins – Military-style outfits for both characters
- New weapon blueprints:
- T.P. Destroyer – CR-56 AMAX Assault Rifle
- Suck Less – KSV SMG
- Cornholio’s Wrath – Feng 82 LMG
- “Kick ’em in the Nads!” Finishing Move
- Other themed items like emblems, charms, and the “Nacho Devil” weapon charm
The Tracer Pack is completely separate from the Event Pass. It’s expected to cost around $25–$30 and includes unique tactical operator skins and exclusive cosmetics not available in the event progression track.
CODtoons Event Teased
Although it’s separate from this event, Activision has teased the upcoming CODtoons event, which will keep the cartoon theme going into the future. It’s expected to include:
- Two new weapon camos (one free, one exclusive to BlackCell)
- More cartoon-style cosmetics
This suggests Activision is testing how far it can go with cartoon-inspired visuals in Call of Duty.
How Fans Are Reacting
The Beavis & Butt-Head crossover has gotten mixed reactions:
- Positive: Some fans love the humor and nostalgia. The cel-shaded look and original voice lines help make it feel true to the cartoon.
- Criticism: Others feel cartoon skins don’t fit Call of Duty’s military style. Some players have called the skins “literal eyesores” or complained about “cartoon nonsense.”
- Monetization Concerns: Many fans are frustrated about another paid Event Pass on top of the regular Battle Pass and premium tiers. Players say they’re tired of so many microtransactions, calling the system “greedy” and too complicated.
Whether this crossover is worth it depends on your style. Fans nostalgic for Beavis & Butt-Head or looking for unique content might love it. Others who prefer realism might skip it to avoid more microtransactions.

The Beavis & Butt-Head Event Pass is one of the weirdest and funniest collaborations Call of Duty has ever done. Whether players see it as a fun change or a step too far from realism, it definitely adds personality to Black Ops 6 and Warzone.
Anyone wanting all the new skins and finishing moves should be ready for a serious XP grind. But even free players have good stuff to earn, like new weapons and fan-favorite cartoon characters.
Only time will tell if this is the start of a new cartoon era for Call of Duty. But one thing’s certain: Black Ops 6 isn’t afraid to get weird—and Season 4 Reloaded is just the beginning.
