Call of Duty announced that it is releasing a free Companion App to allow players instant access to their information even when on the go. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare players in particular can earn both in-game rewards and XP tokens that they can use to level up by using the app. So, what can you expect with this new experience?
Combat Record
The Companion App let's players of Modern Warfare check on some of their stats. These include, among others, lifetime stats, weekly stats, stats per game, and even recent achievements. Players can also check on how their squad is doing.
Rewards
For each week, players that log in to the app receive a sign-in bonus. These include items like free calling cards, Double XP tokens, and even Double Weapon XP tokens that can be used in Modern Warfare.
Players can also earn rewards by taking part in Ops. These are weekly tournaments where squads can compete against 24 other teams with the top three spots winning rewards. Squads can have as many as 20 players and make progress both in Modern Warfare and Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. Also during Ops, each squad is going to be given a challenge like "Get the most wins in Kill Confirmed” or “Get the most kills in Domination.”
Challenges also change each week with rewards given to first, second, and third place squads. There are also challenges that need a minimum number like "Minimum 25 Kill Confirmed Wins" to be eligible to win the Op. Overall, players need to complete the challenges, win the Op, and then collect the rewards.
Intel
The Companion App also gives players an idea of what is currently happening in Call of Duty. The Intel tab gives players access to the News feed.
Here, players can read articles from the Games Blog including the Weekly Wrap-Up showcasing everything that went on in the past week. There is also the Rank Up Report, which is a weekly journal writen as the game's writer plays through Modern Warfare. Finally there is Call of Duty Briefings, a quick rundown on the planned events in the Call of Duty Franchise for the week.
In addition to News, players can also access Match Analysis, which allows for insight in their performance on past matches.
The Companion App is now available to download for both iOS and Android devices.
