Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II season 2 is officially live and there’s loads of new content to dive into, including the all-new event called Path of the Ronin. In this event, players will need to complete a series of different challenges. Each challenge is based on one of the seven different virtues of Bushido – integrity, honor, sincerity, compassion, courage, loyalty, and respect.
Players must walk the path of the ronin to claim the rewards at the end of each challenge. Be forewarned, though. The path of the ronin is an arduous one. A path fraught with danger and painted with the blood of your enemies. Or perhaps your own blood. Luckily for you, we can help guide you in the right direction. We can’t complete the challenges for you. We can however assist you by giving you the rundown on what is being asked of you. If you want to claim the event’s unique rewards, that is. First, let’s go over what those rewards are. So you can decide if walking the path of the ronin is for you.
The event is live across all platforms where Modern Warfare II is available which includes PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC.
Modern Warfare II – Path of the Ronin rewards: what are they?
As mentioned above, each challenge in the Path of the Ronin event is tied to a unique reward. There are seven challenges in all, and one reward for completion of each of those seven. Here’s what you can look forward to:
- Integrity challenge – Complete this challenge to unlock a new skin for Roze
- Honor challenge – Complete this challenge to unlock a new emblem
- Sincerity challenge – Complete this challenge to unlock a new calling card
- Compassion challenge – Complete this challenge to unlock a new weapon sticker

Modern Warfare II – Path of the Ronin challenges: what are the tasks?
You will need to complete a specific task for each challenge. That being said, you can complete these challenges in either Modern Warfare II’s Quick Play or in Warzone 2.0. Naturally, the set of tasks for completing each challenge is different depending on where you complete them. So we’ll break them down for both game modes.
Walk the Path of the Ronin in Quick Play
For those who aren’t fond of the battle royale gameplay as much, Infinity Ward is giving you a way to complete the challenges in Quick Play. These can essentially be done in any match type. So play whichever one suits you best. But keep in mind that certain match types may mesh better with a particular challenge.
With that said, you’ll find each challenge and the required task for completion below.
Integrity challenge
- Win 15 matches in any multiplayer game mode.
Pretty simple. Play any multiplayer mode and just play to win. The quicker you get to 15 wins, the quicker you complete this challenge.
Honor challenge
- Get 100 objective defense kills
This one will be a little less lenient. You’ll need to specifically play match types that have you defending a point. Which means match types like Domination, Hardpoint, Control, or Headquarters. You’ll need 100 kills while defending the point. Which could make things a little tougher for some. But, stick it out. You’ll be finished in no time.
Sincerity challenge
- Get 50 operator kills using Battle Rage
This is another pretty simple one to do. As all it requires is for you to use the Battle Rage field upgrade, then get 50 kills while under its effects. This can be done on any mode. Again though, it may be easier for you to charge up the Battle Rage field upgrade in certain modes compared to others. This all depends on your play style.
Compassion challenge
This challenge has yet to activate. So we’re not quite sure what the task will be yet. Rest assured, once it goes live we’ll come back to update this post. The challenge goes live in 6 days.
Courage challenge
Like the Compassion challenge, the Courage challenge is not yet live and will activate in 6 days. Once that happens we’ll update this post with the challenge task.
Loyalty challenge
This challenge has also yet to go live. It will activate in 13 days.
Respect challenge
This is the last challenge of the event and like its predecessor, it activates in 13 days.
Walk the Path of the Ronin in Warzone 2.0
If you prefer the chaos of a more large-scale heated battle, not to worry. You won’t be forced to play the Quick Play match types. You can complete the event challenges in Warzone 2.0. That being said, you will have to complete some of the challenge tasks in the new Resurgence match type for Warzone 2.0. So keep that in mind. We have each challenge and its accompanying task listed below.
Integrity challenge
- Finish in the top 10 5 times
A lofty goal for anyone who isn’t used to Warzone 2.0 and the challenges the mode itself can pose to a player. But with enough practice you should be fine here. To make getting into the top 10 easier, you can drop in with a friend who’s no stranger to hitting the top of the leaderboard.
Honor challenge
- Restore honor 5 times in Resurgence matches
This might be a tricky one, but again, shouldn’t be too tough for seasoned players or those who practice a bit. To restore your honor, you’ll need to pick up your dog tags after falling in battle. This opportunity will happen once per match, and dog tags can be found at the location of your death. Restore your honor by re-claiming your dog tags.
Sincerity challenge
- Complete 5 bounty contracts
Simple enough to do if you’re used to doing these already. Launch a Warzone 2.0 match, find the bounty contracts on the map, complete whatever they require. Doing these with a squad makes this easier.
Compassion challenge
Just like with the Quick Play method, this challenge is not yet active. It will go live in 6 days.
Courage challenge
This will go live in 6 days alongside the Compassion challenge above.
Loyalty challenge
The second to the last challenge for Path of the Ronin completion. Right now the challenge isn’t active, and will go live in 13 days.
Respect challenge
The last challenge. Respect your enemies, and earn their respect in return. This challenge will go live in 13 days.
Future event challenges
The current challenges for the Path of the Ronin event in Modern Warfare II will expire in 27 days. So if your time for playing is limited, we’d suggest getting these done as quickly as you can. After 27 days, a new set of event camo challenges will be available. That gives you just under a month to complete all seven of these challenges before the refresh.
Check back next week, and the week after for the remaining four Path of the Ronin challenges and their tasks.
