July 22nd 2024: With the beta moving into view, we've updated our guide with the latest intel on Black Ops 6 prestige.

The Black Ops 6 prestige system marks a significant change back to familiarity for Call of Duty fans.

With COD Next 2024 and the open beta on the horizon, Call of Duty is scrapping seasonal leveling in favor of a classic prestige system that injects a breath of fresh air into grinding all the way to the coveted Prestige Master rank.

Find all the intel on the Black Ops 6 prestige system in this handy guide.

Black Ops 6 prestige explained

The classic Prestige system from old Call of Duty titles is back for Black Ops 6. Once players have reached Level 55 and unlocked the entire gun list and each perk on offer, they'll receive an option to restart at Level 1, first prestige.

Some of the items on offer will be locked once again requiring players to work to the top rank once again. In total, there are ten prestige levels in Black Ops 6 multiplayer with a wealth of unique rewards to obtain.

Black Ops 6 prestige master explained

After players reach Level 55, prestige ten, they'll reach prestige master which allows players to continue ranking up. At launch, prestige master consists of 1000 additional levels with all kinds of rewards to earn.

Black Ops 6 max rank

At launch, the maximum rank for Black Ops 6 will be Level 1000. There's no seasonal level caps anymore meaning fans don't have to wait until the start of a new season to reach the highest level available.

Black Ops 6 prestige rewards

The Call of Duty blog says players can earn "a valuable set of rewards to equip" in addition to a "classified reward" to uncover once prestige master is achieved.

Once the rewards are revealed, we'll update the guide with the latest intel.
