The return of the classic Call of Duty Prestige system in Black Ops 6 has made XP grinding more popular than ever. Players familiar with recent titles like Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone might have a head start. This guide explains how to utilize Legacy XP Tokens in Black Ops 6.
Understanding Legacy XP Tokens in Black Ops 6
Following the Season 01 update for Black Ops 6 and Warzone, many players discovered a surplus of previously unseen XP tokens in Black Ops 6. These were quickly used to boost XP, Weapon XP, and Battle Pass progression. However, a subsequent November 15th update addressed this, disabling the direct activation of Legacy XP tokens within the Black Ops 6 interface, as noted on the official Call of Duty blog.
These Legacy XP Tokens are unused tokens carried over from previous Call of Duty titles accessible through the COD HQ app, such as Modern Warfare II, Modern Warfare III, or Warzone. These tokens were obtainable through various methods in those games, including DMZ missions, Battle Pass tiers, and promotions with brands like Little Caesar's and Monster Energy. If you earned them, they remain usable in Warzone. Here's how to leverage them in Black Ops 6.
Utilizing Warzone XP Tokens in Black Ops 6
Initially, players could activate their Warzone Legacy XP tokens directly within Black Ops 6. This is no longer directly possible due to the update. However, a workaround existed:
The workaround involved activating the Legacy XP Tokens in Warzone. After activation, the token and its timer would then appear in the Black Ops 6 UI. While this method required switching between games and XP tokens had a real-time countdown, it still provided a significant XP boost.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone are currently available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
