As Battlefield 6’s record-breaking open beta rages on, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 developer Treyarch is showing some love to loyal Black Ops 6 players. The second double XP weekend of the multiplayer shooter’s season 5 is live now, with all four boosts active for players to take advantage of. You’ll be able to speed through account levels, weapon attachment unlocks and battle pass tiers to kickstart your advancement of the latest season 5 content. This double XP weekend runs from Friday to Monday, Aug. 18.
Anyone playing Black Ops 6 during the event period has a universal double account XP, weapon XP, battle pass XP and GobbleGum earn rate applied to their account. If you log in now, you can hop into battle and reap the rewards of this double XP weekend right away, including the PML 5.56 light machine gun and the ABR A1 assault rifle.
This is the first Quad Feed double XP weekend in a while, which means players will be able to benefit from all four customary double XP weekend boosts at the same time. That means your double XP tokens will be locked for the duration of the event.
