You ever scroll through the app store looking for something different, only to end up downloading the same recycled shooter with prettier icons? Yeah—same here. But Catalyst Black? That one actually stopped me mid-scroll. It’s a fast-paced team shooter, straight out of Super Evil Megacorp’s lab (yes, the same folks behind Vainglory), and it’s quietly been building serious buzz—especially in the U.S. mobile PvP scene.
What’s wild is how deep the in-game economy goes. You’re not just blasting enemies—you’re swapping masks, unlocking Primals, tweaking loadouts like you’re tuning a race car. And that’s where the redeemable codes come in. You see, these codes aren’t just throwaway freebies—they’re your shortcut to skins, drops, and sometimes even rare gear.
So if you’re looking for the latest Catalyst Black codes, or just figuring out how this whole rewards system works… well, let’s dive in.
Active Catalyst Black Codes for December 2025 (U.S. Timezones Included)
You ever log in and feel like you’re just missing the good stuff? Yeah—I’ve been there. Timing is everything with these Catalyst Black codes, especially with holiday bonuses rolling out and codes dropping weekly like candy canes in a blizzard. If you’re like me and hate missing a free mask or rare drop just because you didn’t catch the timezone, this list should help you stay ahead.
Here’s what’s working right now—as of the first week of December 2025—and yep, all times are synced to Eastern Standard Time (EST) for U.S. players:

How to Redeem Catalyst Black Codes on iOS & Android (Without Losing Your Mind)
Alright, so you’ve scored a code—maybe from a Discord drop, maybe from a friend, or heck, maybe from one of those random Twitter giveaways that actually worked. Either way, here’s how to redeem it properly—without tapping through ten menus wondering if you’re even in the right place (been there more than once myself).
🔁 On Android (Google Play users, this one’s smoother IMO):
- Launch Catalyst Black and let it fully load.
- Tap the gear icon in the top-right to open Settings.
- Scroll down until you see “Redeem Code” (yep, it’s not exactly front and center).
- Enter your code exactly as given—no extra spaces.
- Hit “Claim” and wait a second—it’ll pop up if it worked.
✅ What I’ve found: Android redemption is quicker, and the code entry doesn’t time out as fast. But double-check your Google Play account region—it matters sometimes for U.S.-specific rewards.
🍏 On iOS (a little clunkier, not gonna lie):
- Open the game like usual.
- Go to Settings → Account tab (don’t stop at General).
- Scroll to find “Redeem Code”—it’s buried slightly deeper here.
- Type it in carefully, then tap Submit.
- Rewards should drop in your inbox, but you might need to relaunch the game.
⚠️ Heads-up: iOS redemption can get buggy, especially after App Store updates. If your code “doesn’t exist,” try switching to a Wi-Fi network or restarting the app. That fixed it for me last time.
Where to Find New Catalyst Black Codes (Without Chasing Ghosts)
Let me be real—half the battle is just knowing where to look. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen players post about “expired” codes that were never even real. If you’re trying to score legit Catalyst Black rewards without falling into a rabbit hole of sketchy clickbait, here’s where I personally check, especially during U.S. events and seasonal updates:
- @PlayCatalyst on Twitter/X
Super Evil Megacorp’s official account drops codes here first, usually during patch notes or U.S. holidays like Thanksgiving or New Year’s. Follow with notifications on—I missed a Halloween drop because I blinked. - Official Discord Server
There’s a #codes-and-events channel where active players—and sometimes devs—share early codes. It’s also where timed events and U.S. region-specific giveaways show up first. - r/CatalystBlack on Reddit
U.S. users tend to post redeemable codes within minutes of them going live. Look for posts tagged “[Code Drop]” and always check the timestamp. - Influencer Giveaways (YouTube/Instagram)
You’ll see creators like @MobileHero or @iOSPlays run timed code drops tied to sponsor campaigns. Sometimes it’s just for their U.S. audience, so pay attention to timezone mentions. - Super Evil Megacorp’s Official Blog
Not updated super often, but when it is, that’s when major code batches usually hit. Think season launches or year-end updates.
