Year of the Dragon celebrates the Lunar New Year, and 2024 is all about the dragon. This year’s CoD event is also heavily dragon-themed with multiple cosmetics and XP tokens to earn throughout the event by earning XP while the event is active.

The Year of the Dragon event is live from Feb. 9 until Feb. 14 at 12pm CT, at which point it will come to an end and the rewards will no longer be unlockable. Thankfully for players, things like double XP tokens and special bundles exist for those who are looking for a boost to make sure the final reward is unlocked. Get ready to grab a new special, limited-time weapon camo if you grind enough.

Here’s everything to earn and how much XP it takes to unlock it in MW3’s Year of the Dragon Field Rep event.
