Call of Duty XP kicks off this September when the video game invades Los
Angeles to host an event for the fans. Activision has outlined some of
the events that will be held at the upcoming celebration of all things
Call of Duty. From a multi-million dollar tournament and the chance to
play Modern Warfare 3 before it hits store shelves, a faithfully
recreated paint ball arena that gives fans the chance to play Scrapyard
IRL, an obstacle course known as 'The Pit' from Modern Warfare 2, and a
full on reveal of Call of Duty: Elite among other unnanounced activities
at the convention.
The full list of revealed "experiences" have been posted at the official
site for the event that went live just a short time ago.
Events Detailed Thus Far:
$1 Million Call of Duty Operation - Call of Duty® XP presents the most
high-stakes multiplayer gaming tournament ever devised, featuring an
unprecedented $1 million in cash and prizes. Thirty-two four-man teams
will wage war in a savage single-elimination bracket competition, in
front of the cameras and thousands of fans.
Players worldwide will be able to pre-qualify for the tournament with
stellar performances in Call of Duty®: Black Ops-check back soon for
details. There will be opportunities to qualify on-site as well. Armor
up, Call of Duty® diehards. This is your fight.
Prizes - Call of Duty® XP embraces players of all skill levels with
numerous gaming competitions throughout the weekend. Hone your
breach-and-clear skills in Special Ops, shoot your way to the top in
King of the Hill matches or outlast wave after wave of the shambling
undead in Zombie Survival mode. Combatants can win prizes from event
sponsors like Turtle Beach and Microsoft, and there are surprises in
store for Call of Duty® gamers at the event.
Run The Pit - Navigate The Pit, IRL. For the first time ever, players
will have the opportunity to speed-run the infamous Modern Warfare 2®
training sequence in real life, replicated onsite down to great detail.
Prizes and bragging rights are available to top finishers.
Battle in the Scrapyard - Two teams will enter this astonishing
real-world recreation of Modern Warfare 2®'s fan-favorite Scrapyard
level. Only one will exit. OK, both teams will exit, but only one will
walk away with pride-the other will walk away dripping paint. Massive
Modern Warfare-inspired paintball firefights like this happen in only
one place – Call of Duty®XP.
Grab a bite at Burgertown - The only thing cooking at this full-scale
replica of Modern Warfare 2®'s beloved Burger Town is lunch, not
grenades. Take a break from battle to refuel with a Burger Town Classic
or Chicken Burger, crispy or grilled. Burcak's Sundae shake, while
delicious, will not provide immunity to zombies.
Explore the Call of Duty Armory - A unique opportunity to view Call of
Duty®'s vast arsenal in person. Browse weapons and combat gear, Call of
Duty® concept art and research, and explore the history of one of the
most celebrated franchises in gaming.
The Call of Duty XP Event will run from September 2nd -3rd and tickets
will cost $150 each. All proceeds from the event go towards the Call of
Duty Endowment, which is dedicated to ensuring that veterans are
provided a clear path to new careers after their military service is
complete.
