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 progress, a November 15th update resolved an issue preventing their activation within the Black Ops 6 interface, according to the official Call of Duty blog.
These Legacy XP Tokens are unused tokens carried over from previous Call of Duty games accessible via the COD HQ app, including Modern Warfare II, Modern Warfare III, and Warzone. These tokens were earned through various methods such as DMZ missions, Battle Pass tiers, and promotions with brands like Little Caesar's and Monster Energy. Any tokens earned in these games remain usable in Warzone. Here's how to use them (or how they were used) in Black Ops 6.

Using Warzone XP Tokens in Black Ops 6
At the Season 01 launch, players could directly activate their Warzone Legacy XP Tokens within Black Ops 6. However, this functionality was temporarily removed. A workaround existed: activating the tokens in Warzone then launching Black Ops 6, where the token and its timer would appear. This method, while requiring switching between games and having a real-time countdown, provided a faster leveling path in Black Ops 6.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone are currently available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
