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 methods to accelerate this process. 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 November 15th patch addressed this, disabling the direct activation of Legacy XP Tokens within the Black Ops 6 interface, according to the Call of Duty Blog.
Legacy XP Tokens are unused XP 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 earned through various means in those games, including DMZ Missions, Battle Pass rewards, and promotions with brands like Little Caesar's and Monster Energy. While directly activating them in Black Ops 6 was temporarily disabled, they remain usable in Warzone.

Utilizing Warzone XP Tokens in Black Ops 6
Initially, players could activate their Warzone Legacy XP Tokens directly within Black Ops 6. This functionality was temporarily removed. A workaround existed, however, allowing players to leverage these tokens to enhance XP, Weapon XP, and Battle Pass progress in Black Ops 6.
This workaround involved activating the Legacy XP Tokens in Warzone. The activated token and its timer would then appear in the Black Ops 6 UI. While requiring switching between games and featuring a real-time countdown, this method provided a faster leveling experience.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone are currently available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
