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 have a potential shortcut: Legacy XP Tokens. Here's how to utilize them.
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. These were quickly used to accelerate XP, weapon XP, and Battle Pass progression. However, a November 15th update addressed a bug that allowed Legacy XP tokens to be activated within the Black Ops 6 UI.
So, what are these Legacy XP Tokens? They are unused XP tokens carried over from previous CoD titles accessible through the COD HQ app, such as Modern Warfare II, Modern Warfare III, or Warzone. These tokens were earned through various means, including DMZ missions, Battle Pass tiers, and promotions with partners like Little Caesar's and Monster Energy. If you earned them in those games, they remain usable in Warzone. Here's how to use 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 functionality was temporarily unavailable after a patch. However, a workaround existed.
The method involved activating the Legacy XP Tokens in Warzone. Upon returning to Black Ops 6, the token and its timer would appear in the UI. While requiring switching between games and featuring a real-time countdown, this allowed for faster leveling in Black Ops 6.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone are currently available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
