How To Use Legacy XP Tokens in Black Ops 6

by Sadie Feb 12,2025

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 CoD titles like Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone might have ways to accelerate their progress. 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 to Black Ops 6 and Warzone, many players discovered a surplus of previously unseen XP tokens within Black Ops 6. This led to efficient XP, Weapon XP, and Battle Pass progression on launch day. However, a November 15th update addressed this, disabling the use of Legacy XP tokens directly within the Black Ops 6 interface, as noted in the Call of Duty Blog.

These Legacy XP Tokens represent unused tokens carried over from previous CoD titles, accessible via the COD HQ app, such as Modern Warfare II, Modern Warfare III, or Warzone. These tokens were obtainable through various means in those games, including DMZ Missions, Battle Pass Tiers, and promotions with partners like Little Caesar’s and Monster Energy. Any tokens earned in these games remain usable in Warzone. Here's how to apply them to 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 functionality was temporarily removed. However, a workaround existed allowing players to leverage these tokens to boost XP, Weapon XP, and Battle Pass progression 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 some menu switching and real-time token countdown, this method significantly aided leveling up in Black Ops 6.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone are currently available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
