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, many Black Ops 6 and Warzone players discovered a surplus of previously unseen XP tokens. While initially usable for boosting XP, Weapon XP, and Battle Pass progression, a November 15th update addressed an issue that allowed these tokens to be activated within the Black Ops 6 interface.
These Legacy XP Tokens are unused tokens carried over from previous Call of Duty titles, such as Modern Warfare II, Modern Warfare III, or Warzone, accessible via the COD HQ app. These tokens were earned through various methods in those games, including DMZ Missions, Battle Pass progression, and brand promotions. While earned in other titles, they remain usable in Warzone.

Utilizing Warzone XP Tokens in Black Ops 6
At the Season 01 launch, players could activate their Warzone Legacy XP Tokens directly within Black Ops 6. However, this functionality was temporarily disabled. A workaround existed, allowing players to use these tokens to enhance XP, Weapon XP, and Battle Pass progress in Black Ops 6.
The workaround involved activating the Legacy XP Tokens in Warzone. After activation, the token and its timer would appear in the Black Ops 6 UI. While requiring switching between menus and real-time token timers, this method facilitated faster leveling in Black Ops 6.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone are currently available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
