Prepare for an adrenaline-charged showdown like never before as MW2 and Warzone present the Faction Showdown Event, arriving on August 4, 2023. Brace yourself for the ultimate decision: which side will you align with?
A tough choice awaits players, with each faction, Task Force 141, and Shadow Company offering a unique set of rewards through challenges that will test your skill.
Additionally, the winning team, when the event ends on August 16, 2023, will receive even more rewards.
The clock is ticking, and the battleground awaits. So if you do not know which side to join, we are here to help you make your decision.
Which MW2 & Warzone Faction Should I Choose in the Event?
Choosing between Task Force 141 and Shadow Company during the MW2 and Warzone Faction event will ultimately depend on your preference for the final reward.
Apart from the end reward, there is minimal distinction between the two options. You have the opportunity to acquire both sets of faction challenge rewards, as Call of Duty has verified in their blog that you have the flexibility to “change Factions at any point during the event.”
However, only those on the winning faction when the event concludes will acquire the additional awards.
