How to get new Legacy Prestige Icons in Black Ops Cold War
With Black Ops Cold War Season 2 comes new Emblems, Calling Cards, and Icons from previous Call of Duty games that players can unlock and equip – here’s how to obtain them.
Season 1 of Black Ops Cold War introduced the Prestige Shop, which combines the traditional Prestige System with the new seasonal progression. The shop allows players to purchase Emblems, Calling Cards, and Icons from previous Call of Duty titles.
Black Ops Cold War Season 2 has expanded the pool of available Legacy Icons up to Prestige 11. Here’s how to get your hands on them.
How to obtain Legacy Prestige Icons in Season 2
Black Ops Cold War Season 2 has added a plethora of new Legacy Icons and Calling Cards for players to purchase. The new season allows you to purchase Icons and Calling Cards up to Prestige 11 from past Call of Duty games.
To unlock these new Legacy Icons, you need to hit Prestige Master at Season Level 200. This is done by leveling up regularly, completing missions, and utilizing Double XP events and tokens. To maximize your time, you can check out our guide on how to level up fast.
For every 50 levels up to 200 in Season 2, you’ll unlock and wear Black Ops Cold War Prestige Icons. Once you have reached Prestige Master, you’ll gain access to the Prestige Shop. From here, you can purchase Calling Cards, Emblems, and Icons with Prestige Keys – you’ll get a new key every 50 levels.
Once these Legacy cosmetics have been purchased, you can equip them directly from the store.
Many players have been awaiting the prestigious tenth Prestige skull from Modern Warfare 2, which is now available to purchase and wear. And for hitting the higher rungs of Season 2’s progression, you’ll be able to unlock rare Legacy Calling Cards, such as the Blackout Prestige 10 card for hitting level 500.
Unfortunately, as players have discovered in Season 2, you won’t be able to wear your purchased Icons at the beginning of Season 3.
As levels are reset for new seasons, you lose your status as Prestige Master and must reach it again to access your purchased Legacy cosmetics.
