Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 has launched the limited-time Joint Fire event as part of Season 1, adding squad-based progression bonuses and a nine-item reward track. The event went live Friday, Nov. 13, during the season that began Nov. 6.
“Squad up and make every match count” — the Call of Duty account said in a Nov. 13 post.
Players can participate alone, but the event increases progression for players who form a squad. A team of two receives a 3x progression boost, while squads of three or more receive a 5x boost. The multipliers apply across standard multiplayer, DMZ and Warzone, allowing players to earn Joint Fire progress in each of those modes.
Joint Fire reward track
The event uses Joint Fire XP to unlock nine rewards. The track includes XP tokens, Calling Cards and Weapon Charms. One listed milestone awards the Move on Targets Calling Card at 150,000 Joint Fire XP. At 1,350,000 Joint Fire XP, players can claim a 1 Hour Double Weapon XP Token.
- The event awards progression bonuses to squads of two and squads of three or more.
- Joint Fire XP unlocks nine listed items, including XP tokens, Calling Cards and Weapon Charms.
- Completing the base reward track unlocks the Squad Work Hyeon Burst Blueprint.
Players who claim all nine base rewards receive the Squad Work Hyeon Burst Blueprint as the event’s grand prize. The available rewards are tied to the Joint Fire XP track rather than to a separate game mode, with progression available through the three modes listed by the event details.
Wager Matches return during Season 1
The Joint Fire event is running alongside the return of Wager Matches, a separate Season 1 activity that began Nov. 11 and is scheduled to continue through Dec. 2. Players collect trophies from eliminated enemies or Warzone Supply Crates, then risk those trophies in Wager Matches or Challenges. The rewards include Apex Attachments and operator skins.
Infinity Ward also said Nov. 11 that Ranked Mode will arrive in Season 2. Raven Software and Treyarch are collaborating on the competitive mode. The announcement places Ranked Mode in the next season, while the currently active Joint Fire event and Wager Matches remain part of Season 1.
