Call of Duty ‘Codmas’ event announced for Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 And Duty: War zone are getting the festive treatment with the latest 'Codmas' holiday event.
Starting today (December 19) through January 3, players can jump into the shooter and experience a new range of seasonal passes and modes and be rewarded with a host of unique prizes and more.
“Let the festivities start early with the upcoming CODMAS event!” the official blog post is reading. “This year the Halloween spirit has spilled over into the winter holidays with the appearance of Santa Gnaws, here to spread horror and fear among the operators of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 And Call of Duty: Warzone.”
First up is Santa's Slayground, an in-game event where players must complete eight challenges to earn rewards such as consumables and cosmetics, including the 'Christmas Skulls' Calling Card and 'Elfsecution' Finishing Move.
Two theme reskins – called Shipmas and Hangover – have been added to reflect the holidays, and to make things more festive, Activision has added Infectious Holiday and Snowfight, two new limited-time modes and a “twist on two fan-favorite party modes .”
Infectious Holiday lets you play Infected in a lobby with Santa Claus Operators and transform into the Zombie Santa Skin, while Snowfight – a Gunfight variant – has the first two rounds decided by a snowball fight.

“Catch the suspiciously yellow snowball in the center of the map for a one-hit elimination,” the post explains. “After the regular Loadouts return in the third round, players will still be able to loot snowballs placed on the map.”
New seasonal enemy models have also been added to Zombies, along with music and snowballs, the latter of which can be used for deadly attacks on enemies.
As regards War zoneplayers will be treated to the limited-time Slay Ride Resurgence playlist that will reward “high quality loot” and a special emblem for “decorating trees and ambushing Santa on the seasonal train” in Urzikstan.
There's also the 'Face the Vortex' event – which starts on January 3 and ends on January 17 – and the first in-game event of 2024 after Codmas, where players must progress through 15 available rewards by playing on the Vortex theme cards Tetanus, Satan's quarry and Sporeyard.
