The Monster Energy collaboration with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is offering players exclusive cosmetic items and Double XP rewards through participating cans. The promotion runs from September 1, 2026, through March 31, 2027, with rewards including the Tagged decal, Green Light weapon blueprint, OG Green operator skin, Canned blueprint, and Zero Chill operator skin. Players can also collect up to 40 hours of 2XP by submitting eligible can-tab codes.
However, there are a few important details beyond the reward list. The promotion has regional eligibility restrictions, requires both Monster Energy and Activision accounts, and has separate deadlines for submitting can codes and redeeming in-game rewards. There is also a discrepancy between Monster's promotional overview and its formal reward terms regarding the Mystery Item.
All CoD MW4 Monster Energy Rewards
The promotion uses a progression system based on the number of qualifying can codes submitted. Each eligible can counts as one point and contributes 15 minutes of 2XP, subject to the program's daily redemption limits.
The first five cans unlock specific cosmetic rewards:
| Cans Submitted | Reward | 2XP |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Large Decal – Tagged | 15 minutes |
| 2 | Weapon Blueprint – Green Light | 15 minutes |
| 3 | Operator Skin – OG Green | 15 minutes |
| 4 | Weapon Blueprint – Canned | 15 minutes |
| 5 | Operator Skin – Zero Chill | 15 minutes |
| 6–160 | Additional 2XP tokens | 15 minutes per eligible can |
| 161 | Mystery in-game item | No additional 2XP |
The five named cosmetic rewards offer a mix of customization options rather than gameplay advantages. The Tagged decal provides a weapon customization reward, while Green Light and Canned add weapon blueprints. OG Green and Zero Chill are the two operator cosmetics.
The Mystery Item needs special attention. Monster's promotional overview describes the sixth can as unlocking the Mystery Item, but the formal promotion terms and conditions list cans six through 160 as 2XP rewards and reserve the Mystery Item for the 161st can. The formal terms therefore describe a different reward threshold from the promotional overview. Players should check their Monster account's My Rewards section and the latest official terms before submitting additional codes specifically for that item.
Monster's official promotional announcement also explains that the 2XP progression can reach 40 hours with 160 eligible cans.
How to Redeem CoD MW4 Monster Energy Codes
The redemption process involves two websites. Players first submit their can-tab codes through Monster Energy, then use the resulting promotional codes through Activision.
Follow these steps:
- Purchase a participating Monster Energy product.
- Find the promotional code underneath the can tab.
- Visit the Monster Energy x Call of Duty redemption website.
- Create a Monster Energy account or sign in to an existing one.
- Open the Redeem section and enter the can-tab code.
- Check the My Rewards section for the promotional codes you have unlocked.
- Visit Call of Duty's official redemption page.
- Sign in to the correct Activision account and enter the reward code.
- Follow the confirmation instructions and restart the game if the rewards do not immediately appear.
The distinction between the two redemption stages matters. Submitting a can-tab code to Monster does not automatically place every cosmetic item in the player's in-game inventory. Players must also redeem the resulting Activision codes.
Monster's official FAQ confirms that players should check My Rewards for unlocked codes and use the Call of Duty redemption page to claim their items. It also advises restarting the game if a reward was redeemed while the player was already logged in.
Which Monster Energy Cans Qualify?
Not every Monster Energy product automatically qualifies. The official promotion lists three participating varieties:
- Monster Energy Original (Green)
- Monster Energy Zero Sugar
- Monster Energy Zero Ultra
The US promotion covers participating 16 oz cans, including eligible single cans and multipacks. The FAQ specifically excludes 24 oz cans, so players should check the packaging before purchasing products for the promotion.
Each eligible can has its own tab code. Codes from previous Call of Duty promotions cannot be reused for this campaign, and each code can only be redeemed once.
There are also limits on how quickly players can collect and use 2XP. The formal rules allow only one 2XP code to be issued per day, regardless of how many qualifying cans are submitted. Players can redeem up to one hour of 2XP per day, with a maximum of 40 hours across the promotion.
This means buying or submitting multiple cans at once does not let players bypass the daily 2XP limits. It is worth checking the available rewards and planning submissions around actual progression needs rather than assuming every token can be activated immediately.
Promotion End Date and Regional Eligibility
The main Monster Energy promotion ends on March 31, 2027. However, the deadline for using the resulting Activision reward codes is later: April 30, 2027.
| Important Detail | Official Information |
|---|---|
| Promotion period | September 1, 2026 – March 31, 2027 |
| Can-tab submission deadline | March 31, 2027 |
| In-game reward code deadline | April 30, 2027 |
| Minimum age | 18 |
| Eligible US locations | 50 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico |
| Maximum 2XP | 40 hours |
| Daily 2XP redemption limit | 1 hour |
One particularly important restriction is geographical eligibility. The US promotion's official terms limit participation to legal residents who are physically located in the 50 United States, Washington, D.C., or Puerto Rico, and who are at least 18 years old at redemption. This version of the promotion should not be presented as a worldwide offer. Players elsewhere should check whether Monster has a separate promotion and local terms for their region.
The official promotion also supports PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox on PC, Battle.net, Steam, and Nintendo Switch 2. Players should make sure their Activision account is linked to the platform they actually use before redeeming rewards.
Is the CoD MW4 Monster Energy Promo Worth Following?
For players who already purchase participating Monster Energy drinks, the collaboration offers a straightforward way to collect weapon cosmetics, operator skins, and additional XP. The first five cosmetic milestones are the main attraction, while the 2XP tokens provide a longer progression incentive.
The value depends on how much players want the specific cosmetics. Buying drinks solely to reach higher reward tiers may be less appealing, especially when the daily 2XP limit means that submitting many codes does not translate into immediate access to all the bonus XP.
Of course, besides the co-op events and promotional rewards, players can also earn XP and cosmetic unlocks through CoD MW4 bot lobbies. These private matches offer a more controlled environment where players can focus on completing challenges, leveling weapons, or testing loadouts without the pressure of public matchmaking, making them a practical alternative for steady progression.
For anyone planning to participate, the safest approach is to verify the qualifying can, save each tab code, check the My Rewards page, and redeem all Activision codes before the April 30, 2027 deadline.
