Black Ops, Modern Warfare 2 Double XP weekend incoming

Activision has revealed Call of Duty: Black Ops and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will be receiving a double XP weekend.

This weekend, players can enjoy the two shooters developed by Infinity Ward and Treyarch respectively before a large majority of players move over to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.

The revamped prestige system in the soon-to-be-released shooter was explained by Activision:

Every time you prestige in MW3, you’ll receive a prestige token. Use it to unlock rewards like double XP for a limited time, an extra custom class, or choose one piece of gear from your custom class to keep unlocked from rank 1 of future prestiges.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 launches on November 8th worldwide.

Thanks, CVG.
