Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 players are constantly seeking ways to accelerate their progression, and double XP remains a key strategy. While Treyarch regularly hosts double XP weekends, many players want to maintain that boost beyond these events. The solution? Double XP tokens, which allow for twice the experience gains across player level, weapon progression, and the battle pass.
The demand for these boosts is high, especially as Black Ops 7 introduces new weapons and the Warzone Armory, expanding XP-based rewards. Here’s a breakdown of how to obtain and effectively use double XP tokens in the latest Call of Duty title.
Can You Stack Double XP?
No, double XP tokens cannot be activated during official double XP weekends. Attempting to do so will result in the tokens being grayed out, preventing use until the event concludes. Any active token time will be frozen and resume once the universal boost ends.
Earning Free XP Tokens
Despite the prevalence of microtransactions, several methods allow players to acquire double XP tokens without spending money:
- Multiplayer Prestige: Although Black Ops 7 itself doesn’t directly award tokens for prestige, carrying over tokens from Black Ops 6 through prestiging is a viable option. Each prestige in Black Ops 6 grants a 1-hour token, which carries over to Black Ops 7 for use in multiplayer, zombies, and Endgame modes.
- Seasonal Battle Pass: The Black Ops 7 Season 1 Reloaded battle pass includes double player and weapon XP tokens on free tiers, making it accessible to all players. Premium battle pass tiers also offer additional tokens, but require Call of Duty Points.
- Official Giveaways: The Call of Duty X (formerly Twitter) account occasionally hosts giveaways with double XP token codes. Monitoring these channels is a quick way to acquire free boosts.
Paid Options for XP Tokens
The fastest way to obtain double XP tokens is through in-game purchases:
- Microtransactions: Certain bundles in Black Ops 7 include double player and weapon XP tokens alongside cosmetic items.
- External Promotions: Call of Duty partners with brands like Monster Energy and Little Caesars. Purchasing products from these partners and redeeming associated codes can unlock Call of Duty Points, exclusive cosmetics, and, importantly, double XP tokens.
The Monster Energy Promotion
Monster Energy is currently running a promotion that rewards players with double XP tokens. Codes redeemed from specially marked cans unlock the following:
- First Code: Energy Flash decal + 15-minute double XP token
- Second Code: Peacekeeper MK1 Hyper Green weapon blueprint + 15-minute double XP token
- Third Code: Green Fury operator skin + 15-minute double XP token
- Fourth Code: VS Recon Green Thunder weapon blueprint + 15-minute double XP token
- Fifth Code: Daylight Ripper operator skin + 15-minute double XP token
Additional codes unlock further 15-minute double XP tokens. The promotion ends March 31, so act quickly.
Leveraging Black Ops 6 Tokens
Players can still use any double XP tokens carried over from Black Ops 6 in Black Ops 7. This is a significant advantage, as token carryover is not guaranteed for future titles. Unlike cosmetics, which do not transfer between games, XP tokens remain usable for the time being.
Given that Modern Warfare 3 tokens did not carry over to Black Ops 6, and Activision controls future token availability, it’s wise to consume existing tokens now to maximize progression.
In conclusion, maximizing XP gains in Black Ops 7 requires a combination of in-game strategies and external promotions. Whether through free methods, paid bundles, or carrying over tokens from previous titles, players have multiple avenues to accelerate their progression. However, with token policies subject to change, utilizing existing boosts now is the most reliable approach.
