- Player Level
- 1 to 55, earned in Multiplayer and DMZ, and in Warzone from Season 1.
- Prestige
- 10 Prestige levels.
- After that
- Prestige Master, up to level 1,000.
- Two paths
- Classic Prestige resets your unlocks for rewards; Regular Prestige keeps them.
Classic or Regular
🔁 Classic Prestige
Resets your unlocks and Create-a-Class. In exchange you get 20% more XP, a Permanent Unlock Token and extra cosmetics.
➡️ Regular Prestige
Starts you again at level 1 and keeps everything you have unlocked.
🎯 Choosing again
Activision says you pick the path again at each new Prestige level.
Prestige Master
Once all ten Prestige levels are done, your level keeps climbing past 55, up to 1,000.
Weapon Prestige
Activision says that once a weapon reaches its last level you can prestige it: its attachments lock again and it goes back to level zero, in exchange for exclusive camos.
The DMZ level, apart
Two sources say DMZ has its own track, levels 1 to 70. Activision adds that DMZ XP also counts toward the 1 to 55 Player Level, while Multiplayer and Warzone XP do not count toward DMZ.
Cross-checked
Cross-checked on 26 October 2026 against callofduty.com's launch post on progression and Prestige, IGN's Prestige guide and Dexerto's explainer. The DMZ range comes from callofduty.com and Dexerto. Not from a playthrough: nobody here has played it, and what the sources do not describe is not on this page.
