Prestige System Explained

Rank Up Your Prestige to Earn Rewards

The Seasonal Prestige system was implemented by Call of Duty into recent games, where you continue to level up past Rank 55, gaining Prestige after reaching specific thresholds.

Each Prestige rank unlocks rewards and a set of challenges you can complete to earn rewards like Emblems and Calling Card challenges for Multiplayer and Zombies.

All Prestige Challenges

Earn Prestige Ranks Every Season

In Season 1, players were able to reach Prestige 5 at Rank 250. However, in Season 2, the cap has been increased to Prestige 9 at Rank 450. Players will now have the opportunity to grind until Rank 450 until the arrival of Season 3.
