Grinding for Prestige on Black Ops 6? Get ready for a massive boost with the start of the game’s first Double XP weekend.
Between November 1 to 4, levelling up should be a breeze on Multiplayer and Zombies. The festivities mark the launch of Nuketown, a remastered version of the original Black Ops map from 2010.
Nuketown is available now in two 24/7 playlists (including a Hardcore version for the most battle-hardened players) that allow you to play the new map on repeat.
The game types available in both playlists include Team Deathmatch, Domination, Hardpoint, and Kill Confirmed. Surprisingly, Kill Order isn’t included in the lineup, despite being the only new mode to be added to Black Ops 6.
Due to its compact size, Nuketown is a great place to rack up kills and, hence, XP. So grab a Marine SP shotgun and start running and sliding up on enemies, leaving a trail of mangled operators in your wake.
As Call of Duty veterans will know, Double XP weekends are a long-standing tradition in the series. During these events, the game essentially doles out a double multiplier to help you progress your rank and weapons faster. This time around, you’ll also get a 2x GobbleGum earn rate on Zombies, giving you the chance to snag more of the ability-enhancing consumables.
Remember: Any Double XP tokens you’ve earned from promotional tie-ins will be disabled during this weekend.
Seeing as Black Ops 6 doesn’t have a Battle Pass yet, there’s no double XP towards that. Though, don’t be surprised if we get another double XP weekend around the launch of the first season on November 14.
That’s when Black Ops 6 will fully integrate with Warzone, bringing the new Omnimovement system and its entire inventory over to the free-to-play game. Activision is also promising a new Warzone map (Area 99), a fresh Zombies map and more multiplayer modes.
For now, players can get their grind on during the double XP weekend to build on their first week’s progress. Graft hard enough and you should be able to reach level 55 and unlock Prestige, resetting your rank in the process and opening up an entirely new lane of special rewards.
