Many players love to grind through every mode in Call of Duty, and Black Ops 6 promises an extensive array of content to explore. In addition to the return of the classic Prestige system and a comprehensive Camo challenge system for all modes, the game introduces Mastery Badges, enabling players to showcase their skills in both Multiplayer and Zombies.
These badges provide a fresh objective to pursue, presenting new challenges as you navigate the various modes in Black Ops 6. Here’s how the Mastery Badge system works and how you can earn them in the game.

Black Ops 6 Mastery Badges System Explained
Mastery Badges in Black Ops 6 are a new feature that enables players to display their “proficiency” with the game's gear in Multiplayer and Zombies, including Weapons, Scorestreaks, Equipment, and Field Upgrades.
How To Get Mastery Badges In Black Ops 6
Black Ops 6 players can earn Mastery Badges by successfully progressing with each piece of gear and completing the three Tiers: Badge I, Badge II, and Mastery Badge. Each Badge Tier will have a distinct in-game appearance: Badge I features a Bronze design, Badge II has a Silver design, and the Mastery Badge showcases a Gold design along with a Stat Tracker display.
It’s important to note that both Multiplayer and Zombies modes feature their own unique Badges, which are tracked statistically and can be unlocked for Equipment usable in both modes.
How To Unlock Diamond Badge Upgrade In Black Ops 6
To unlock the Diamond Mastery Badge in Black Ops 6, you must complete the specified number of item types within each Badge Category, which will automatically grant you the Diamond Upgrade.
Where Are Mastery Badges Visible?
Since earning Mastery Badges will require significant effort, Black Ops 6 allows you to display them in your Social Menu, the Winner’s Circle after Multiplayer matches, and during the KillCam (just the killing weapon Badge). The game will display your top three Badges by default, but you can manually customize the ones you want to showcase.
