Treyarch has revealed that Double XP will return to Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone starting December 24, giving players a perfect opportunity to level up quickly during the holiday season. The event promises an accelerated XP rate, making it easier for gamers to climb the ranks in Black Ops 6.
Since the launch of Black Ops 6, Treyarch has been generous with Double XP events, providing frequent opportunities for players to advance through the game’s challenging Prestige system. However, these events have sparked some controversy among players, with many claiming that the XP boost feels closer to 1.5x instead of the advertised 2x. Whether this discrepancy will be addressed in the upcoming event remains to be seen.
What We Know About the Upcoming Event
Interestingly, Treyarch has not yet made an official announcement regarding the Double XP event. However, the in-game event menu confirms that the bonus will begin on December 24. This timing allows new players unwrapping a copy of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 on Christmas morning to jump in and immediately benefit from the increased XP rate.
While details about additional bonuses have not been disclosed, past Double XP events often included extras like Double Weapon XP, Double Battle Pass XP, and even Double GobbleGum Earn Rate. Fans are hopeful for a similar bundle of perks this time around.
Are Double XP Events Losing Their Appeal?
The most recent Double XP event in Black Ops 6 began on December 13, leaving a relatively short gap before the upcoming Christmas event. While frequent events undoubtedly boost player engagement, some in the community feel that the abundance of Double XP weekends has diminished their excitement. The challenge for Treyarch lies in striking the right balance—keeping events frequent enough to reward players but rare enough to feel special.
Other Festive Offerings in Black Ops 6
The holiday season brings more than just Double XP to Black Ops 6. The ongoing Archie’s Festival Frenzy event offers seasonal fun, while the fan-favorite Stakeout 24/7 playlist is back, making it the perfect mode for grinding camos.
Players looking to maximize their time in Black Ops 6 this holiday season are spoiled for choice, with both engaging events and gameplay enhancements ensuring a festive gaming experience.
Get ready to make the most of your holiday grind starting December 24! 🎮
