ActivisionThe CODtoons event is coming to Black Ops 6 and Warzone, marking another huge cartoon crossover, this time with American Dad. And, as usual, there are paid skins and some free rewards to grab if you’re willing to grind.
Call of Duty has been ramping up the number of crossovers in recent weeks. First, Ana de Armas’ Ballerina arrived during Season 4, before Beavis and Butt-Head took over the game with their own event and free skins.
And, now that the CODtoons American Dad collab is here, we’ve got yet another animated series getting some love on the battlefield.
Here’s everything you need to know about the event.
CODtoons event start date
The CODtoons event arrived on Thursday, July 17, 2025. It’s replacing the Beavis and Butt-Head and King of the Dead events and ushering in the new COD event.
CODtoons will last for 14 days, ending on July 31, 2025. It will be wrapped up before Season 5 drops on August 7, and it’s not clear if they plan on doing another event before S5’s launch or if they’re just planning to have a gap week.
CODtoons event explained
CODtoons will bring a series of challenges that must be completed to earn rewards, with specific objectives unlocking a signal prize. This is vastly different from many of the most recent events, which require players to pick up items from defeated enemies or simply earn XP.
Each reward will actually have three different challenges tied to it, relating to multiplayer, Warzone, and Zombies. The good news is that you only need to tick off one to claim the prize, and you can swap between modes.

There is also a Mastery reward, which is only unlocked after you receive every other reward, so it’s well worth trying to grind them all.

Roger also won’t be launching until July 20, a bit after the event goes live. However, Stan Smith is available immediately for American Dad fans who want to get their hands on the skin now.
