What Do Warzone 2.0 Battle Tokens Do?

Battle Tokens essentially replace the normal progression model for the Battle Pass, making them required for anyone who wants to progress and unlock all the goodies at those high levels. This lets you decide first which rewards you want to get, but it also means you will need to collect plenty of Battle Tokens to unlock them. If you play matches normally, earning Battle Tokens can be a real grind.

How Do You Get Warzone 2.0 Battle Tokens? 2023

Play Short Game Modes in Modern Warfare II

If you also own Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, any XP you earn in its multiplayer matches will also be converted into Battle Tokens you can use in the Warzone 2.0 Battle Pass. Here are a few game modes that can be completed very quickly and let you grind XP very fast.

  • Play Team Deathmatch. This is a very quick game mode, especially if you are skilled. The more enemies you kill, the more XP you earn.
  • Play Kill Confirmed. Very similar to Team Deathmatch, Kill Confirmed is mostly a hunter-style game, and you can earn slightly more XP just by collecting tags as you play.
  • Finally, the game type with the highest risk of getting a reward is Free-for-All. If you are confident in your top-three finishing skills, this is a great way to earn XP quickly.

Play Battle Royale and DMZ

If you only have the free Warzone 2.0, your game types are limited to regular battle royale and the new DMZ mode. Even so, playing your cards directly in these modes can earn you plenty of XP to reach your next Battle Token. DMZ mode in particular has an additional advantage that will help you grind in every mode too.

  • In Battle Royale, focus on getting a high placement with your team, and also on completing contracts for bonus XP on top of what you would normally get.
  • Although DMZ matches usually take the longest and are very risky, they are the most consistent way to earn Double XP tokens that you can use in other modes to progress even faster. Make sure you pick up missions that have these tokens as rewards before going into a match.

Use Double XP Tokens

As we just mentioned, Double XP Tokens are special items that double the amount of XP you earn for a certain period of time. Obviously, this will greatly reduce your grinding, but they come at a cost. Besides a few DMZ missions and some Modern Warfare II campaign missions that offer them as rewards, you will have to pay to get your hands on them.

  • Buy the Vault Edition. This edition of the game comes with 10 hours of Double XP Tokens as well as 50 Battle Tokens to sweeten the deal.
  • Buy certain Mountain Dew products for tokens ranging from 15 to 120 minutes of Double XP Tokens.
  • Buy certain Jack Links products for a Double XP Token, among other rewards.

Buy the Battle Pass

Again, the final way is for those who would rather spend some money than spend time progressing through the Battle Pass.

  • Buy the Warzone 2.0 Battle Pass to instantly receive 20 Battle Tokens.
  • Players who own the Battle Pass can also buy additional Battle Tokens directly from the in-game store for 150 COD Points each.
