That's right, Clan Wars is almost here and will be launching on June 1st (UTC)! However, we've already seen many of you ask - what is Clan Wars? Well, it is a unique bi-seasonal competitive event that will be running every two seasons (like Ranked Series). Every two seasons it will reset, there will be new rewards, and your clan will have new chances to climb the leaderboards.
The second most common question we've seen is: what if I don't have a clan? Don't worry, once Clan Wars launches there will be plenty of new clans forming up and you'll be able to find plenty of options to fit your needs. You don't have to be hardcore and play 4 hours a day while coordinating with your clan to earn rewards and enjoy this feature, even those who join casual clans that are formed just to to help everyone earn rewards will still be able to grab worthwhile gear.
Clan Wars Rewards
Before we get into the nitty gritty of how Clan Wars works we'll tackle what everyone cares about most, those sweet new rewards . While working with your clan to battle for control you'll be earning clan currency, which can the be used to purchase a variety of different rewards. However, that isn't the only way to get rewards. You can earn new rewards through the following ways:
- By spending clan currency in the store
- Through weekly rewards, based on both clan performance and your individual performance
- Climbing the Clan Leaderboards
Ronin - Hakagure with his unique gear equipped
That means even if your clan isn't pulling their weight you'll still be rewarded for your own efforts. Of course, it will be easier to grab the best rewards with an active clan but the system is setup to make it so that individual efforts are still rewarded. Speaking of rewards, here is the full and huge list of what you can snag through one of those options above:
- Ronin - Hagakure
- QXR - Rebirth
- Backpack - Ronin
- Chestpiece - Ronin
- Helmet - Ronin
- RUS-79U - Brushed Chrome
- QXR - Brushed Chrome
- Chopper - Ambush
- DL Q33 - Ambush
- ASM10 - Ambush
- Knife - Ambush
- SMRS - Ambush
- Frag Grenade - Ambush
- Flashbang Grenade - Ambush
- Rank Border - Elite 1
- Rank Border - Elite 2
- Rank Border - Elite 3
- Rank Border - Pro 1
- Rank Border - Pro 2
- Rank Border - Pro 3
- Rank Border - Legendary
As you can see from the store page, which you can see in-game now yourself, Ronin is the hardest reward to acquire with a requirement of 50,000 clan currency but also exclusive to Clan Wars. Those featured items are all some of the most epic pieces, but there are also various rare quality rewards mixed in to provide more options at lower costs. Lastly, let's talk about how you earn that new currency and how the event works in general.
Clan Wars Mechanics
We mentioned that there are a few different ways you can earn rewards and clan wars currency, but the main way is all based around capturing Clan War Nodes. These are timed objectives that will have unique objectives and modifiers. Each node will be fought over by clans for a set amount of time and depending on each clans rank they will earn currency.
We have some (updated) screenshots from in-game showing exactly how that looks right now, but you can always jump into the Clan section from the main lobby to see it all for yourself.
Those nodes will be changing every day and there will always be new ones to tackle with different objectives. However, as the Clan Leader you can set a node as a primary target. All clan members will receive bonus points when attacking that node. Additionally, there will be extra social mechanics to help reward you for playing with members or your friends like you see in the mock-up above (Bonuses in Effect). All in all, there will be many different ways to focus, earn node points, and help you and your clan snag some rewards.
Joining a Clan War
Each Clan War event will be made up of many mini-seasons, which are basically just new Clan Wars that last a week. Every week you'll be fighting over different nodes and for different rewards. Your clan will need to join each Clan War season to participate, otherwise you'll have to wait for the next one to open up.
There is a lot to Clan Wars underneath the surface of the basic "win rewards, play with clans!", but it is all meant to create competitive gameplay, opportunities to interact with your clan and other players, and a new way to provide more epic rewards . Lastly, here are some more call-outs and notes.
Clan Wars - General Information
- New Challengers Each Week: Your clan will be matched up with a specific number of other clans each week, that way it is a more focused fight and without one clan always dominating
- Weekly Prizes: In every clan war season (which run a week) you'll be able to receive weekly prizes depending on where your clan ranked on the leaderboard, which is based on participation and how many nodes your clan was able to claim.
- Match Bonuses: There will be a variety of way to earn bonuses to help your clan get ahead, whether it is playing with friends or even just making sure to play at least one match every day.
- Nodes & Points: Clans who compete for nodes, as shown above, will earn points depending on where they placed. However, strive to win! The clan who captures the node will earn bonus points.
- Participation Matters: All players who participated in at least 2 clan wars are given a season prize based on clan rank.
- Exclusive Prizes: Ronin - Hakagure and his unique pieces of equipment are exclusive to Clan Wars. Show off your clan's skills by decking out Ronin in a full array of equipment.
- Find Your Clan: Not everyone may want to to be in a highly competitive clan, there is space for all, even those who casually play throughout the week and just want to help each other earn rewards.
You'll be able to check this all out on June 1st and we'll have an additional Activision Blog with more information and tips if you need it! We'll be keeping an eye out for questions and feedback, so please do reach out if you have any. Have an excellent weekend and best of luck to all who engage in this first-ever Call of Duty: Mobile Clan Wars season!
