Double XP tokens, a Call of Duty staple to help players level up faster, are harder to source than ever in Black Ops 6.
Compared to most games, where there are a variety of in-game ways to unlock tokens, Black Ops 6 mainly relies on external campaigns or giveaways for those all-important accelerated XP gains.
This page explains how to get Double XP tokens in Black Ops 6 at launch, and where to use Double XP tokens when you have some.
How to get Double XP tokens in Black Ops 6
Double XP tokens — whether it’s for player levels (XP), weapons (WXP), or battle pass (BXP) — can be sourced in the following ways:
Beyond XP tokens, there are other ways to get a healthy dose of XP boost in-game — such as completing three Daily Challenges each day, targeting Calling Card Challenges, and completing Mastery Badges, as well as anything you’d earn naturally through playing matches on Black Ops 6’s maps.
Finally, each Call of Duty game hosts Double XP weekend event on a semi-regular basis, so follow in-game and social media messaging for when the next one rolls around.
How to use Double XP tokens in Black Ops 6
To activate a Double XP token in Black Ops 6, go to the multiplayer or Zombies lobby. If you’re using a controller, press L3 by clicking in the left stick (or if using another control method, enter the button prompt that appears in the bottom right corner of the screen) to bring up the Double XP menu.
Here you’ll find all available Double XP tokens, which you can redeem when ready.
Note that all Double XP tokens will count down in real time — so if it says 30 minutes, that will include everything from waiting in lobbies and loading screens to the matches themselves. As such, it’s best to only pop these when you definitely know you’ll get some solid playtime in to maximize your returns. After all, these tokens are harder to get this year than ever!
