Black Ops 4 Blackout Challenges list: all Career, Operations, Professional, Survivalist, Heroic and Vehicular challenges listed

Black Ops 4 Blackout Challenges work a little differently compared to other Battle Royale games.

All present from the start, they are split into two types - Career and Operations with another two sub-categories - Professional, Survivalist, Heroic and Vehicular respectively - within each of them.

Each one has tiers, too, keeping you busy during your Blackout career.

Black Ops 4 Blackout Challenges explained - what are challenges and how do they work?

Challenges are pretty simple in Blackops 4 Blackout, especially compared to their ever-rotating counterparts in fellow battle royale games like Fortnite and PUBG.

In Blackout, they're simply one static list of things to do, varying from the theoretically simple, like winning a game of Blackout, or the more complex, like killing enemies while blinded or exacting revenge on those that took out your squadmates.

The majority of them come in several stages, but with those stages seemingly effectively asking you to repeat the same challenge again but a greater number of times, we've just included the first stage and main objective of each challenge in the tables below, so you know what you're up against.

All of them offer Merits as rewards - the in-game form of Experience Points that contribute to you levelling up through what Blackout calls Echelons (more on these in our explainer on Merits and Echelons themselves) - and naturally those increase as you move through the tiers or levels of complexity.

There's also another set of challenges, named Dark Ops, which are secret objectives that only reveal themselves when you actually complete them. Unless you know what they are before hand - which the prior link can help with.

Otherwise, that's largely all there is to it. The challenges can of course only be completed in Blackout mode, and you'll find many of them are the sort of thing you'll naturally chip away at as you play the game and improve over time. Still, it's nice to have something to chip away at for a sense of progression.

Remember, there are a handful of 'secret' objectives to complete too, named Dark Ops, which only reveal themselves when you complete them. Of course, if you know what they are before hand you can complete them faster - which is what the prior link can help out with.
