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 discovered ways to accelerate this process using Legacy XP Tokens. This guide explains how.
What are Legacy XP Tokens in Black Ops 6?
Following the Season 01 update to Black Ops 6 and Warzone, many players found themselves with numerous previously unseen XP tokens. These were quickly used to boost XP, Weapon XP, and Battle Pass progression. However, a November 15th update addressed an issue allowing these tokens to be activated within the Black Ops 6 UI, as noted on the Call of Duty Blog.
These Legacy XP Tokens 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 games offered various ways to earn XP tokens, including 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 in Black Ops 6.

Using Warzone XP Tokens in Black Ops 6
Initially, players could activate Legacy XP Tokens from Warzone directly within Black Ops 6. This functionality was temporarily removed. However, a workaround existed:
Activate your Legacy XP Tokens in Warzone. The token and its timer would then appear in your Black Ops 6 UI. While this method required switching between game menus and XP Tokens counted down in real-time, it still provided a significant XP boost.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone are currently available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
