Today, on October 17, a Halloween event starts in Call of Duty: Warzone, where you will meet the Butcher from Diablo 4. If you defeat him, you will receive a unique item. Here on MeinMMO, you will learn how this works.
- Currently, there is a crossover between Call of Duty and Diablo 4. Today, on October 17, new content enters both games: the Halloween event “The Haunting” in CoD and the “Season of Blood” in Diablo 4.
- For Halloween, Activision has brought two new skin bundles to the CoD shop, and they come from Diablo 4 – Inarius and Lilith bring out their firearms.
- During the Halloween event, you will encounter the Butcher from Diablo 4 in Warzone. He drops a unique item when you defeat him.
On the Call of Duty website, it is described that you can secure the coveted Butcher’s Hook if you defeat him in Warzone. However, you should pay attention to a few important steps.
In Call of Duty, Season 6 started on September 27, 2023. Here you can see the maps:
Secure the Butcher’s Hook
This is how you get the unique item: To obtain the Butcher’s Hook for Diablo 4, you must complete a few steps. These are detailed on callofduty.com – we summarize them for you:
- Link your Battle.net account to your Activision account via the profile tab on the CoD website
- Activate a Lilith altar and open a nightmare portal to the Butcher (available on the maps Al Mazrah and Vondead)
- Defeat the Butcher in battle
- The reward will be credited to your Battle.net account, which can take up to 4 days
- If you kill the Butcher before linking your accounts, the reward will still be credited and will not be lost
- Since the item is a scythe, you need to equip a scythe in Diablo 4 to make the transmog visible
- You have until the end of “The Haunting” to kill the Butcher, so until November 6, 2023

What do you think about the crossover and the Halloween event? Will you secure the Butcher’s Hook? Or is the powerful enemy enough of a nuisance for you already in Diablo 4? Feel free to share your opinion in a comment.
If you are still considering which of the two games to spend the evening with today, we recommend Call of Duty for now, as Diablo 4 is currently facing significant issues regarding the launch of the new season:
