Activision and Sledgehammer continue to add new special events to MW3 and Warzone, and the next big gaming crossover sees the arrival of Warhammer 40K.

Warhammer 40K is a tabletop game rather than a video game, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t immensely popular. While some players love creating armies and taking them into battle, there’s an equally big chunk of the community who just enjoy painting and designing their little soldiers.

For some, the mix of Warhammer 40K and Call of Duty is a dream come true, so here’s when the crossover goes live.

MW3 and Warzone x Warhammer 40K event release date

MW3 and Warzone‘s Warhammer 40K event is scheduled to begin on Wednesday, March 13. It’ll kick off right after the Dune: Rule of Fate event ends, as confirmed by the devs in the blog for this season’s Reloaded patch.

The Warhammer 40K event in MW3 and Warzone will end on Wednesday, March 27. This means you’ll have two weeks to complete all the challenges and earn any cosmetic rewards that are included in the event.

We don’t know what will replace the Warhammer 40K: For the Emperor event just yet, but there’s likely to be an announcement in the next few weeks.
