Updated on February 5, 2025, by Max Candelarezi: With the arrival of Season 2 in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone, BlackCell has been updated with a new set of rewards for those who choose to invest in this premium service. This piece was updated to include all the content included in the Season 2 version of Call of Duty's premium Battle Pass, showcasing each item and reconsidering whether purchasing BlackCell is worthwhile for this season.
What Is BlackCell In Black Ops 6 & Warzone?
Black Ops 6 and Warzone's BlackCell is a premium Battle Pass option that players can purchase for $29.99. Unlike the standard Battle Pass, BlackCell cannot be purchased with Call of Duty Points and requires a direct cash purchase to unlock its exclusive benefits. These benefits include access to a unique sector, exclusive Operator skins, Weapon Blueprints, and additional content with a distinctive black and gold theme.
It’s important to note that purchasing the BlackCell Battle Pass grants access to the complete Battle Pass for the season in which it is bought.
