Over the years, the Call of Duty franchise has evolved, introducing numerous gameplay features with each part of the series. This includes elements like operators, which are present in the latest entry, Black Ops 6.
To put it short, operators are skins for your player character in Call of Duty multiplayer modes. These skins are usually characters known from single-player campaigns, like Frank Woods, the face of the Black Ops franchise. Not every operator is available from the get-go. In fact, there are different criteria for unlocking them while playing Black Ops 6.

How to level up quickly to unlock operators in Black Ops 6
As you’ve probably realized by now, you can unlock a handful of the operators in Black Ops 6 by elevating your Player level. While you will do so by enjoying the multiplayer or Zombie mode, a few ways give you more experience than others, giving you an early edge in terms of levels if that’s your goal. Here are a few of them.
Complete Daily and Weekly challenges
Like every Call of Duty installment for the past couple of years, Black Ops 6 has no shortage of weekly and daily challenges. Completing them is a bit timely but far from impossible, and doing so will not only reward you with tons of experience but will often come alongside other rewards. It’s always best to track your challenges and ensure you’re doing them regularly.
Play with your friends
Those who played Call of Duty online modes know all too well that sometimes carrying a game by yourself is impossible. That’s why queuing up with your friends will increase your chance for victories, which naturally rewards you with more experience. On top of that, it’s simply more fun, which is the primary goal, right?
Focus on the objectives instead of the kills
Far too often players end up playing Domination or another mode where killing the enemy players isn’t the target, but they still focus on that. As a result, while they might finish on top of the scoreboard, they will often lose the game and miss out on tons of experience. If you aim to increase the amount of the latter you gain, making objectives your main goal in each game is the way to go.
Use your Double-XP tokens
As you level up, you will receive Double-XP tokens. Their name is self-explanatory. When you use them, you earn double the experience you usually would. That’s why it’s worth stacking them and using them in your long-night sessions with friends or on your own. In those games, it’s usually best to implement the other advice we mentioned above so that your gains are as big as possible.
