Summary
- Double XP event in Black Ops 6 on Dec 13 includes 2X Weapon XP, Battle Pass XP, & GobbleGum Earn Rate.
- Recent Double XP events faced controversies with XP rate issues.
- Treyarch's frequent Double XP events in Black Ops 6 engage players.
Treyarch has confirmed that Double XP is returning to Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 on December 13, on what will be a big day for the game. This comes shortly after the previous Double XP event in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
Since the launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, there have already been several Double XP events in the game. This allows dedicated players to speed up their leveling while en route to Prestige Master. However, these events haven't all gone smoothly so far. There has been tons of controversy surrounding Black Ops 6 Double XP, with many players reporting that they earned below 1.5x the standard XP rate, as opposed to the alleged 2x multiplier. These problems were still prevalent as of the most recent Double XP event, so hopefully Treyarch manages to fix them this time around.

Rumors of Black Ops 6 crossovers have been rampant, and new evidence suggests the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles could be on the way.
In a tweet, Treyarch confirmed that on December 13, Double XP, Double Weapon XP, Double Battle Pass XP, and Double GobbleGum Earn Rate will be turned on. This will coincide with the launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's multiplayer and Zombies free trial, allowing players jumping in for the first time to enjoy increased XP rates and catch up to other players much faster than usual. As of right now, Treyarch has not confirmed how long this Double XP event will run.
Double XP is Coming to Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 on December 13
Prior to this, the most recent Black Ops 6 Double XP event began on November 27, lasting the weekend through to December 1. With Double XP already back just 12 days later, it seems that Treyarch is being frivolous with these kinds of events this time around. There's no doubt that it keeps players more engaged throughout the year, especially for players who drop the game and return periodically for these events. With this in mind, it makes sense that Double XP would already be back so soon, especially with many gamers settling in for the holiday season.
Given the typical 12-month lifecycle of Call of Duty games, it's still very early doors for Black Ops 6. Treyarch has already released plenty of content for the game, including the recent Season 1 Reloaded update. There's sure to be plenty more to come, too. One recent rumor even suggests that a classic map from the original Call of Duty: Black Ops is set to return in Black Ops 6. Nothing is confirmed yet, but it would be great to see Treyarch revisit some of its older maps in the new game.

Forced to go rogue. Hunted from within. This is Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
Developed by Treyarch and Raven, Black Ops 6 is a spy action thriller set in the early 90s, a period of transition and upheaval in global politics, characterized by the end of the Cold War and the rise of the United States as a single superpower. With a mind-bending narrative, and unbound by the rules of engagement, this is signature Black Ops.
The Black Ops 6 Campaign provides dynamic moment-to-moment gameplay that includes a variety of play spaces with blockbuster set pieces and action-packed moments, high-stakes heists, and cloak-and-dagger spy activity.
In a best-in-class Multiplayer experience, players will test their skills across 16 new maps at launch, including 12 core 6v6 maps and 4 Strike maps that can be played 2v2 or 6v6.
Black Ops 6 also marks the epic return of Round-Based Zombies, the fan-favorite mode where players will take down hordes of the undead in two brand-new maps at launch. Post-launch, players can look forward to even more exciting maps and groundbreaking experiences dropping into both Multiplayer and Zombies.
