How to Prestige in Black Ops 6 (BO6)

As someone who has spent countless hours in the trenches of Call of Duty battles, I can confidently say that the return of prestige levels in Black Ops 6 is like a warm, familiar hug from an old friend. The thrill of starting over, the grind for better weapons, and the satisfaction of seeing that coveted Master Prestige emblem – it’s a rush that never fades.


In essence, it’s widely understood that the Call of Duty series primarily focuses on multiplayer gameplay. While the campaign mode is an attractive feature, games like Black Ops IIII have shown that they can thrive even without it. However, developers found that completing all levels in the game was too quick and didn’t sufficiently reward players for their effort. So, they introduced prestige levels to keep dedicated gamers engaged. First appearing in the console version of Call of Duty Modern Warfare (2007), this feature has become a highlight for many devoted players. Now, let’s explore how it operates in Black Ops 6 and whether it differs from previous installments of this franchise.

How to prestige in BO6 explained

For certain enthusiasts reaching the peak level of 55 might suffice, but for those seeking a taste of the past, Black Ops 6 brings back the traditional prestige system before Black Ops IV. Here’s how you can access it: After hitting the maximum level and finishing your last game, you will be prompted whether to prestige. If you select “not yet”, you can perform this action later from the prestige tab itself. Keep in mind that developers might play a trick on you with the famous chicken sound.

With the return of the old system, upon hitting the prestige, the following will be reset:

  1. Your level,
  2. Weapons,
  3. Scorestreaks,
  4. Perks,
  5. Equipment and field upgrades.

Don’t worry, as there are features that will always be accessible, like:

  1. Your weapon progression,
  2. Camos,
  3. Reticles,
  4. Builds,
  5. Challenge progress and unlocks,
  6. Store and battle pass content,
  7. Operators and emotes,
  8. Zombies GobbleGums.

Furthermore, upon reaching the prestige stage, you’ll receive a token that grants permanent unlocks. After achieving prestige level 10, further resets won’t be accessible, but instead, the Master Prestige status will activate, pushing you towards completing 1000 levels. Every 100 levels in this mode, you’ll have the opportunity to select a prestige icon of the corresponding level from all legacy Call of Duty icons.

Progressing through levels quickly in Black Ops 6

A swift method for advancing through the stages rapidly involves playing the “Kill Confirmed” game mode with the “Bankroll Perk Greed”. This significantly increases the experience points earned, which can be quite effortless in this specific mode.

Equipped with this information, you’ll find it easier to advance through the stages of this Call of Duty game and uncover a hidden reward if you reach the 1000th level of Mastery. Best of luck!
