With events in Black Ops 6, Call of Duty has found its boots even more off the ground with silly crossovers ranging from cartoons to hit movies. More of this will continue with the ’90s Action Heroes event, which is confirmed as a Season 5 event. 

It is said to pay homage to yesteryear's action flicks with rewards including the Boxing Gloves melee weapon. Check the full details on the event below with the full leaked reward list.

Per reliable leaker realityuk, the '90s Action Heroes in Black Ops 6 will begin on August 21 and will run until September 4, 2025

Activision has yet to confirm the exact schedule for the event in Black Ops 6. It is confirmed to arrive during the first half of the season before the Reloaded patch, however.

Other possible dates include any Thursday before early September, as that is the usual timeline for in-season events before the Reloaded patch begins. Of course, there could be changes to the usual schedule.

So, if we go by leaks, it is a XP-collecting event where you'll fetch the points for simply playing the game, across Warzone or Black Ops 6 modes. Once you've unlocked all 10 rewards, you'll get the final reward: the Boxing Gloves melee weapon. Like previous events, there will also be a Blackcell variant of the final reward. 

That's about everything you need to know about the '90s Action Heroes event and leaked rewards. Remember, while the leaks have generally been spot-on, finer details may change here and there upon release.
