Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Call of Duty: Warzone Battle Pass and BlackCell

An overview of the reward system in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Call of Duty: Warzone

Launching in Season 01 and shared across Call of Duty®: Black Ops 6, Call of Duty®: Warzone™, and Call of Duty®: Warzone™ Mobile, the Battle Pass offering features a brand-new page-based progression system.

The new Battle Pass system functions as a combination of previous versions. For example, like the classic Battle Pass, your journey through it is linear along a pre-set path of Pages featuring Tiers of reward opportunities. However, similar to Sectors on the recent map-based Battle Passes, you can choose to unlock rewards in any order on each Page.

Battle Pass options include:

The free Battle Pass: Available to all players, the free Battle Pass includes several rewards. With this version of the Battle Pass, you will not earn Battle Pass Tokens. Instead, rewards are unlocked in numerical order through normal gameplay.

Base Battle Pass: For 1,100 Call of Duty Points, you can upgrade to the Battle Pass to instantly unlock rewards on the Instant Rewards Page, gain access to over 100 unlockable rewards, and receive a 10% Battle Pass XP Boost

Battle Pass Bundle: For 2,400 Call of Duty Points, you can upgrade to the Battle Pass Bundle to instantly unlock rewards on the Instant Rewards Page plus 20 Battle Pass Tokens, gain access to over 100 unlockable rewards, and receive a 10% Battle Pass XP boost.

BlackCell: Get a head start on unlocking rewards with BlackCell, which includes:

  • Access to the Battle Pass plus 20 Battle Pass Tokens
  • New BlackCell Operator and Mastercraft Weapon Blueprint
  • 1,100 Call of Duty Points
  • BlackCell Instant Rewards Page
  • Unlockable BlackCell Operator Skins and Weapon Blueprints
  • The ability to unlock any single Page from the Battle Pass, ignoring the usual minimum Tier requirements. From here, you can unlock the Tiers within that Page, and progress forwards (or backwards) from the Page provided the subsequent Tier unlock criteria is met.
  • Receive a 10% Battle Pass XP Boost

Battle Pass Pages

The Battle Pass features rewards contained in a series of Pages, with Page 1 unlocked by default at the beginning of each Season. Each Page contains several rewards, also known as Tiers, along with one High-Value Target (HVT). Tiers can be unlocked and claimed in any order you wish using Battle Pass Tokens.

Once all Tiers on a Page are unlocked, the HVT becomes available. Unlocking and claiming the HVT completes the Page and unlocks the next Page of the Battle Pass.

All Pages can be previewed before they are unlocked.

Please note: Players without the Base Battle Pass, Battle Pass Bundle or BlackCell earn the rewards marked Free on each Page. Upgrading to the Base Battle Pass, Battle Pass Bundle or BlackCell will entitle you to previous rewards.

 

Unlocking New Battle Pass Pages

While you need to unlock and claim all Tiers on a Page to gain access to the HVT, you only need to unlock and claim five Tiers on a Page to unlock the next Page of the Battle Pass.

 

Battle Pass Tokens

The XP you earn across all public game modes in Black Ops 6, Warzone, and Warzone Mobile contributes to earning Battle Pass Tokens. Battle Pass Tokens are then used to unlock Tiers in the Battle Pass.

Battle Pass Tokens can also be purchased with Call of Duty Points.

Please note: Players with the free Battle Pass do not have access to Battle Pass Tokens.

 

Unlocking and Claiming Rewards

Each Tier on a Page must be unlocked to complete the Page and progress to the next Page of the Battle Pass. Unlocking a Tier on a Page also claims the reward. Rewards marked Free are available to all players but still need to be claimed.

 

Battle Pass Token Bank

As you earn Battle Pass Tokens through gameplay, they will be added to your Battle Token Bank. You can see the balance of your Battle Token Bank when entering the Battle Pass.

 

Auto-spending Battle Pass Tokens

The Battle Pass is designed to let to choose which rewards you want to unlock on an unlocked Page. However, you can also set your Battle Pass to Auto. When turned on, this feature will automatically unlock and claim Tiers in numerical order as you earn Battle Pass Tokens.

 

BlackCell Bonus: Unlock One Page Early

When you enter the Battle Pass for the first time, Page 1 will be unlocked by default. However, BlackCell owners have an option to begin unlocking Tiers on any Page of the Battle Pass before unlocking Tiers on Page 1.

For example, let’s say at the beginning of a Season, you see a reward you want right away on Page 7. You can start your Battle Pass on that Page and begin unlocking and claiming rewards. However, once Page 7 is complete, you will not unlock Page 8 unless you have also completed Pages 1 through 6. Instead, your journey continues on the lowest Page that is unlocked but not yet complete.

1. Are there different versions of the Battle Pass?

Yes, each Season includes a brand-new Battle Pass containing rewards that were not previously available.

The free Battle Pass is free to all players, offering several rewards.

The Base Battle Pass  available for 1,100 Call of Duty Points — includes full access to the Battle Pass, instantly-unlocked rewards on the Instant Rewards Page, access to over 100 unlockable rewards, and a 10% Battle Pass XP Boost.

The Battle Pass Bundle — available for 2,400 Call of Duty Points — includes full access to the Battle Pass, 20 Battle Pass Tokens, instantly-unlocked rewards on the Instant Rewards Page, access to over 100 unlockable rewards, and a 10% Battle Pass XP boost.

BlackCell includes full access to the Battle Pass, 20 Battle Pass Tokens, instantly-unlocked rewards on the BlackCell Instant Rewards Page, and other BlackCell rewards.

2. Do I need the Battle Pass to play Black Ops 6 or Warzone?

The free Battle Pass is available to all players. However, upgrading to the Base Battle Pass, Battle Pass Bundle or BlackCell is an optional addition to your Call of Duty experience. Base Battle Pass, Battle Pass Bundle or BlackCell rewards are cosmetic and do not provide any gameplay advantages.

3. Can I buy individual rewards from a Battle Pass?

Aside from Call of Duty Points, rewards within the Battle Pass can only be obtained by unlocking them with Battle Pass Tokens.

4. Can I buy the Battle Pass from previous Seasons?

No. The Battle Pass for a specific Season expires when a new Season begins.

5. If I upgrade to the Base Battle Pass, Battle Pass Bundle or BlackCell during a Season, will I need to start at the beginning?

No. With the free Battle Pass, you progress through Pages and Tiers, claiming the Free rewards along the way. If you upgrade to either the Base Battle Pass, Battle Pass Bundle or BlackCell, you’ll be entitled to claim all previous rewards up to your current Page and Tier.

6. Will my Battle Pass progress and unlocked content be available if I play on other platforms (upgrade from Xbox One to Xbox Series X|S, play on a console and PC, etc.)?

Yes. Battle Pass progress and rewards you unlock are tied to your Activision account. Therefore, Battle Pass progress and rewards will be available on all platforms as long as you play on the same linked Activision account where you originally earned the progress and rewards.

Please note: Call of Duty Points you earn through the Battle Pass can only be spent on the platform you are playing on when you unlock the Call of Duty Points.

7. Do Battle Pass Tokens carry over from Season to Season?

At the end of each Season, any unspent Battle Pass Tokens you have earned or purchased will be automatically spent on remaining Battle Pass rewards along a pre-set path to complete the Battle Pass. When the next Season begins, you will be presented with an overview of the rewards that were unlocked.

8. If I purchase the Base Battle Pass or the Battle Pass Bundle, will I be able to upgrade to BlackCell later in the Season?

Yes. In addition to the exclusive rewards you can unlock with BlackCell, you will instantly receive the 1,100 Call of Duty Points you spent on your original Battle Pass purchase from that Season when you upgrade.

9. How do I get the bonus The Replacer BlackCell skin?

Season 01 BlackCell owners who purchase the Tracer Pack: The Replacer bundle receive the bonus The Replacer BlackCell skin in addition to all the regular bundle content.

Please note: To receive the bonus The Replacer BlackCell skin, players must own the Season 01 BlackCell prior to purchasing the Tracer Pack: The Replacer bundle. The bonus skin will not be granted if the Season 01 BlackCell is acquired after purchasing the bundle.

10. How does the BlackCell Loyalty Bonus work?

Starting with Season 02, BlackCell owners can get special boosts to help them level up faster.

When you buy BlackCell for the second time, you will get a 10% bonus to both Player XP and Weapon XP. Each time you buy BlackCell again in a new Season, the boost will go up by another 10%. Bonuses will remain active until the end of the final Black Ops 6 Season. 

For example, if you had BlackCell in Season 01 and buy it again in Season 02, you will start getting the 10% boost. If you buy it again in Season 03, your boost will increase to 20%.

If you skip a Season, your boost level does not reset. For instance, if you bought BlackCell in Seasons 01 and 02, skip Season 03, then buy it again in Season 04, your boost will still go up to 20%. 

These XP boosts from the BlackCell Loyalty Bonus work in addition to other 2XP Tokens or 2XP Weekends, so you can get both boosts at the same time.
