Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will be revealed through an in-game event in Warzone 2 today. Here is the exact start time for the MW3 reveal event, as well as how you can participate and which rewards you can get.
If you've been playing Warzone since Year 1 then you already know the kind of event we're talking about. To get people hyped for the new Call of Duty title each year, and to tie their various products together, they reveal the new game with a Warzone event. Let's get into everything we know about this year's event, which will reveal Call of Duty 2023: Modern Warfare 3.
Modern Warfare 3 Reveal Event: How To Participate
To participate at the event, simply login to Warzone 2 when it starts. The event usually lasts for 24 hours, and will involve you doing some kind of task that isn't related to the normal Battle Royale mode. Once you've done the task, a trailer shows for the new game.
- If Warzone ranked has got you back into the game then we recommend checking out the current Ranked Meta, as well as picking up an advanced controller with paddles.
MW3 Reveal Event: Start Date & Time
Modern Warfare 3 will be revealed via an in-game Warzone event on August 17 at 10:30 am PT, 1:30 PM ET. The whole MW3 reveal event will be a limited-time Warzone event accessible in-game as the “Shadow Siege” playlist.

So, there you have it, the event is 100% coming in Season 5 and we will probably get a MW3 trailer directly afterwards.
- If you want to upgrade to next-gen before MW3 is released, the cheapest option is by far the Xbox Series S .
CoD: What Will The MW3 In-Game Event Look Like?
If the last three years are anything to go by, they will create an event that plays on the major themes of the upcoming game. When they revealed Black Ops Cold War in Warzone, for instance, they gave players random hallucinations as if they were feeling the effects of some kind of mind control. This was a direct reference to Cold War mind control programs that feature heavily in the BOCW campaign.
For the MW3 reveal event, we already know, that the event will have us join the Shadow Company and take on Konni forces. This is how Activision described the event beforehand:
Drop into Call of Duty: Warzone to experience the worldwide reveal for Call of Duty 2023 in a limited-time event. Join the ranks of Shadow Company to take on Konni forces and secure the chemical weapon threat before it’s too late.
And this is what a well-known leaker said:
The rumored MWIII reveal event will have you helping Shadow Company capture missile silos on Al Mazrah while defending those silos from enemies. You will be invading a bunker located under Observatory in search for a Gas Canister which you will exfil with.
So while we don't know yet, how exactly the event will work, we have a good idea already...
Modern Warfare 3 Reveal Event: Rewards
Obviously, you will also be able to unlock a bunch of cool rewards by participating in the MW3 reveal event. Here is everything you can unlock:
So there is a total of six rewards, including:
- Konni Group Emblem
- Battle Token Tier Skip
- Crimson Sound Calling Card
- Serpent Slayer Vehicle Skin
- Gas Canister Charm
- AR M13C (New Gun)
Yes, you read that right, one of the new season 5 guns will be unlocked during the MW3 reveal event.
