With the release of Warzone and Black Ops Cold War Season 3 players are able to participate in a brand-new event called Hunt for Adler, which tasks them with completing challenges in both titles in order to earn rewards.
While in-game events that challenge players is nothing new for Black Ops Cold War and Warzone, yet another one has started with the launch of Season 3.
Now that Season 3 is here, fans can start earning rewards via the brand-new Hunt for Adler event. As previously announced, players are able to get their hands on Calling Cards, weapon charms, Operator skins, and more for both Black Ops Cold War and Warzone.
Notably, each game has its own set of three challenges and, unlike past events, its own set of rewards. If you only want to complete one game’s challenges, you’ll still technically “complete” the event. Here’s everything there is to know.
Hunt for Adler in Black Ops Cold War: challenges & rewards

- Reward: Head Comrade sticker

For Warzone, players will have to complete a different set of challenges. Rather than grinding out the game through raw gameplay, players will have to find intel throughout Verdansk ’84, the new version of map that was added to the game with Season 3.
While it might be possible for a dedicated player to grind through all three challenges in one match of Plunder, it’ll more than likely take players a few matches in order to get all three pieces of intel.
Challenge #1
- Challenge: In Warzone, complete the Intel contract at Farms.
- Reward: Missing Calling Card
Challenge #2
- Challenge: In Warzone, complete the Intel contract at Summit.
- Reward: Rebel Rivas sticker
Challenge #3
- Challenge: In Warzone, complete the Intel contract at Factory.
- Reward: Close Call weapon charm

Completing either the Warzone or Black Ops Cold War set of challenges will grant you an exclusive Tortured and Rescued Adler skin. It’s worth pointing out that you only need to complete one game’s challenge set in order to unlock the skin, so you won’t have to play a game that you don’t want to in order to get it.
The event itself is only running for Season 3’s initial launch week, meaning it’ll end on Wednesday, April 28, 2021, so you’ll want to go ahead and complete the challenges as quickly as possible if you want any or all of the rewards.
