When is the next double XP weekend in Black Ops 6?

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 turns back the clock with classic Prestige mode, where XP and leveling up fast are more important than ever. And that means double XP weekends are key.

The harsh reality of classic Prestige sets in once you enter, and everything gets reset to level one. It’s a bummer each time it happens, but that just means it’s time to have fun unlocking everything all over again in the latest CoD.

The fun settles down once you realize you’re missing your loadouts and weapons, so it’s time to level up as fast as possible. Thankfully, double XP weekends in BO6 are a thing, and they’re the perfect time to maximize your XP gains and burn through a Prestige over the course of a few days with lots of gaming.

Here’s when the next double XP weekend is in BO6 as well as in Warzone so you can plan accordingly.

Next BO6 double XP weekend

Call of Duty’s double XP weekends happen every so often throughout the year. They usually take place during holidays, after the release of new content, and towards the end of seasons, whenever the XP grind is most important as players aim to finish their battle passes.

The next double XP weekend starts on Thursday, June 19, at 11am CT / 9am PT / 12pm ET / 5pm BST, according to the in-game Event tab. It will probably end on Monday, June 23, at the same time. The event may feature double XP and double weapon XP.

We’ll update this when official information becomes available.

Even though double XP weekends are only a few short days whenever they are live, make sure not to burn yourself out on the CoD grind. Another double XP weekend should be coming shortly, so pace yourself and have fun while you can.

Remember, no double XP weekend is worth it if you don’t have the will or desire to play. Prestige Master will come in due time.

Double XP start and end times

Double XP weekends begin at 9am PT / 11am CT / 12pm ET / 5pm BST on a Thursday or Friday, then coming to an end on the following Monday at the same times. However, double XP weekends are often extended, particularly if there are server issues.

The double XP event beginning on June 19 lines up perfectly with the start of the Rivals event, which is highly likely to be XP-based.

Best XP farm in BO6 double XP

Double XP weekends are the best time to play BO6 to make the grind through Prestige levels much faster, but twice the XP is only the start. There are other ways to maximize your XP gains during these special weekends, like these:

• Spam tacticals like concussion, flash, and decoy grenades, along with Scorestreaks like UAV and Counter-UAV, for extra assists and points.
• Use Dispatcher and Bank Roll perks for easy Scorestreaks and better score.
• Save up Mastery Badges to unlock during double XP.
• Play small maps and fast-paced respawn modes (Face Off, Stakeout 24/7, etc.)
• For less effort, zone out and casually play Zombies for XP.
• Complete daily challenges every day that double XP is live.
