Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone players eager to check out the next holiday-themed event have been left disappointed after a serious bug has allowed some to unlock all of the event's rewards instantly. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's Archie's Festival Frenzy is the second festive event for the month of December, with the Merry Mayhem event reaching its conclusion on December 19.
The new Archive's Festival Frenzy event in Call of Duty once again allows players to unlock a plethora of different rewards, including new cosmetic items such as loading screens, operator skins, calling cards, emblems, and more. There are even some lucrative double XP tokens up for grabs, with the final reward being a brand-new weapon: the AMR Mod 4 Sniper Rifle. The event is scheduled to run until January 3, meaning players have two weeks to rack up as many eliminations as possible and collect Jolly Archies, the in-game currency for the event. Although some players will need to grind for the full two weeks to unlock the rewards, some are discovering that they've already got thousands of Jolly Archies available to spend.

Call of Duty's New Archie's Frenzy Event Is Broken for Some Players
With Call of Duty's Merry Mayhem event recently coming to an end, players were eager to jump into Archie's Festival Frenzy on December 19, but some players were left disappointed after a serious bug allowed them to unlock all of the event's rewards. Over on Reddit, various users are sharing similar posts about how they started the event with thousands of Jolly Archies already available. For reference, the most expensive reward in the event only costs 50 Jolly Archies, but one player started with well over 20,000, meaning they could unlock every cosmetic item and the new weapon in an instant.

Not everyone is being affected by this bug though. While some are reporting that they've started the event with thousands of Jolly Archies, others, such as RMennie, say they've started with nothing. The bug also seems to have divided the community, with some stating that they are happy they don't have to grind over the holiday period, while others saying they were "looking forward to the grind." In total, there are 14 rewards for Call of Duty's Archie's Festival Frenzy event, with the final reward being the brand-new Sniper Rifle. So for players who weren't lucky enough to experience this event-ruining bug, there are two weeks to grind to unlock all of the event's rewards.

Since its release on October 25, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has hosted multiple in-game events, with many of them allowing users to unlock brand-new weapons. However, one of the game's first events caused controversy as Black Ops 6 players could pay to unlock the event's new weapon early. The Sirin 9mm SMG was supposed to give players a reason to grind the Hit List event, but shortly after the event began, Activision added a new bundle to the in-game store with a blueprint for the Sirin 9mm, which allowed users to unlock the base weapon instantly.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6
Forced to go rogue. Hunted from within. This is Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
Developed by Treyarch and Raven, Black Ops 6 is a spy action thriller set in the early 90s, a period of transition and upheaval in global politics, characterized by the end of the Cold War and the rise of the United States as a single superpower. With a mind-bending narrative, and unbound by the rules of engagement, this is signature Black Ops.
The Black Ops 6 Campaign provides dynamic moment-to-moment gameplay that includes a variety of play spaces with blockbuster set pieces and action-packed moments, high-stakes heists, and cloak-and-dagger spy activity.
In a best-in-class Multiplayer experience, players will test their skills across 16 new maps at launch, including 12 core 6v6 maps and 4 Strike maps that can be played 2v2 or 6v6.
Black Ops 6 also marks the epic return of Round-Based Zombies, the fan-favorite mode where players will take down hordes of the undead in two brand-new maps at launch. Post-launch, players can look forward to even more exciting maps and groundbreaking experiences dropping into both Multiplayer and Zombies.
