How to redeem Contracts in Black Ops 4

There are three easy steps that go into earning rewards by completing Contracts:

  • STEP 1: Visit the Contracts menu and choose two out of the 28 that are available. There will be six Contracts available for each of the four modes, along with one additional Daily Contract. Within each mode’s list of challenges, two will be marked as ‘Hard’, but you will be rewarded for your efforts with better rewards.
  • STEP 2: After you’ve selected the Contracts, load into the corresponding game mode and complete the challenge(s) listed in that Contract.
  • STEP 3: Upon completion, you will be rewarded with an in-game prize that goes along with the Contract. You can now also go back to the menu and choose more Contracts to complete .
