Players will also receive the Legendary Assault Rifle Juliet Blueprint if they manage to achieve a Gold medal in each Trial.
“On top of these rewards, individual medals will give points to a player’s respective country, determined by their account’s origin,” Activision adds. “Each country’s points will be updated daily, and the top 15 countries will be visible on in-game leaderboards. Total scoring is weighted by country participants, so any nation can rise to the top.”
The Season 5 Reloaded update is scheduled to release today, August 25th, and will introduce the FiNN LMG and the King Slayer mode for Warzone. Read more about the update here.
