How prestige works in Black Ops 6

Call of Duty’s classic prestige system is finally returning.

However, there are a few exceptions.

A tease of the Prestige Master rewards can be seen in the image below.

Reticle challenges return to unlock additional reticle styles for further gun customization.

There are also the hidden “Dark Ops” challenges.

Camo challenges

The camo challenges work a bit differently this year.

Once Military and Special camos are unlocked, a player can begin the Mastery camo grind.

Black Ops 6 calling cards

Reticle challenges and unlocks are bound to each individual optic and not any specific weapon.

This means that a player can make progress towards reticles for their favorite optic with any compatible weapon.

With 10 Prestiges and Prestige Master, that means an additional 11 challenge sets to complete in each mode.
