Black Ops 7 opens Season 1 with a full slate of Weekly Challenges across every mode — Multiplayer, Zombies, Endgame, and Warzone. These challenges refresh weekly and offer a layered progression track that rewards weapon unlocks, loadout upgrades, XP boosts, Camos, and seasonal cosmetics.
What makes this year unique is flexibility: completing any six objectives from the available weekly pool counts as a completed week. Players can mix modes freely — win Multiplayer matches, grind Zombie rounds, complete Warzone contracts, or defeat threats inside Endgame — and they’ll still progress toward that weekly reward.
Better yet, Season 1 allows catch-ups. Even if you join midway through the season, all previous weekly challenges remain available so long as the season is ongoing.
How Weekly Challenges Work in Season 1
Weekly Challenges can be viewed inside the Weekly Challenge Menu through the Lobby or Career interface. Each set features objectives in four categories:
| Mode | Example Challenges | Reward Types |
|---|---|---|
| Multiplayer | Eliminations, lethal kills, match wins | XP + weapon unlocks |
| Zombies | Round survival, perk-based kills, Elite kills | XP + seasonal rewards |
| Warzone | Placements, contracts, melee kills | XP + item unlock progress |
| Endgame | Weapon jailbreaks, raiders, ability-based kills | XP + weekly reward completion |
Complete 6 challenges from any mix of categories per week to earn that week’s featured unlock.
The very first week immediately sets the tone — finishing Week 1 grants the Ballistic Knife, a returning series-favorite projectile melee weapon.

Quick unlock roadmap
- Multiplayer – Hit 300 kills while working toward lethal + Nemesis challenges.
- Zombies – 2,500 kills and tactical-related kills complete naturally while round-stacking.
- Warzone – Contracts + crates finish quickly in Resurgence-style matches.
