Prestige Could Return

MW2 - Prestige

Prestige is a traditional system in older Call of Duty games where players that have already reached the max level can choose to reset their rank and start progressing through the levels again. Players would be given a medal to display on their profile indicating they are doing a Prestige run and could usually get up to Prestige 10.

2019's Modern Warfare did not have the Prestige system instead allowed players to level up their Officer Rank. A blog post published by the Call of Duty Staff mentioned Race to Prestige and level up your favorite weapons for MW2 and while this doesn't explicitly say that the Prestige system is back, it's definitely something to keep an eye on.

How to Reach Max Level Fast

You can reach the max level quickly by activating Double XP Tokens and completing Daily Challenges. Double XP Tokens are particularly effective in Objective-based Game Modes.
