Another round of Weekly Challenges is now live in Call of Duty:Black Ops 7, giving players a valuable chance to earn large chunks of XP, advance the Season 1 Battle Pass, and unlock powerful rewards. Week 5 stands out in particular, as finishing any six challenges across all modes grants access to the AK-27 Battle-Scar Conversion.

This unique attachment reshapes the AK-27 into a slower, harder-hitting rifle built for long-range dominance. The conversion swaps the Rear Grip slot for Combs, disables Stock attachments, and prevents Rapid Fire usage—trading speed for raw damage and improved accuracy at distance.

Each Week 5 challenge awards between 2,500 and 5,000 XP, contributes toward Season 1 animated camo progress, and helps players work toward notable unlocks such as the Kogot-7 SMG and Maddox RFB assault rifle.

Black Ops 7 Weekly Challenges refresh every Thursday at 11 a.m. CT, but unlike daily objectives, they do not expire weekly. All challenges remain available until the end of Season 1, allowing players to stack progress over time and complete multiple weeks simultaneously—ideal for those who start late or prefer longer grind sessions.

Players looking to improve efficiency often take advantage of controlled environments like Black Ops 7 Bot Lobbies, which are excellent for practicing recoil control, refining aim, and testing loadouts before heading into competitive matches.Get ahead before it counts. MMOexp CoD Black Ops 7 Bot Lobbies help you build consistency, confidence, and skill—so you're ready when the real matches begin.

Fastest Way to Complete Week 5
