What you need to know about Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 Double XP and leveling up faster.

The Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 Double XP weekend is live in Multiplayer modes and in Black Ops 3 Zombies, so you can level up fast in both of these popular modes. So far we know when the Black OPs 3 Double Xp weekend starts for Xbox One, PS4 and PC. The timing for PS3 and Xbox 360 is still TBD.

When you complete challenges, perform well in matches and kill more players you earn XP in the game. This adds up to unlock new levels that end up unlocking weapons and upgrades that you can use to better equip your player.

With the Black Ops 3 Double XP weekend gamers will be able to level up faster in Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 than they have so far. If you haven’t had time to play much multiplayer this is a great opportunity to earn more XP for the basic play — and it will help you get better weapons, perks and upgrades faster.

It’s not clear if this will help users earn Cryptokeys faster as they play matches. Cryptokeys allow gamers to buy supply drops which can include common and rare items. It will help some gamers level up enough to use the rare items they earned in a supply drop since many unlock at higher levels.

Is Black Ops 3 Worth Buying?

> 1 / 9

After playing Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 for the last 10 days there are some things that Treyarch needs to fix, but this is by far the most fun I've had in a Call of Duty game. The campaign mode offers more options to customize your character and weapons, a more compelling storyline and the Cybercore capabilities offer a fun addition to the experience. While playing Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 multiplayer on the Xbox One I found the experience to be the perfect mix of fun and frustrating. There are some moments where I think I should win a gun battle, but I'm also winning similar battles. I'm hopeful that with the fast updates we are seeing Treyarch and Activision can iron out any remaining issues. After buying the regular edition of Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 it is a game I would gladly buy again. Yes, Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 is worth buying on Xbox One. Although I haven't played Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 on PC or PS4, the overall fun and value of the game should carry over to these versions as well.
