These double XP periods offer a limited-time multiplier on all game modes, making them essential for anyone wanting to maximize their time spent progressing Multiplayer, Zombies, or even the new Endgame mode after the Campaign is over.

If you’re eager to climb Prestige ranks or simply progress faster, keeping track of these double XP weekends is crucial. Here’s when the next double XP event happens in Black Ops 7 and Warzone.

When is the next double XP weekend in Black Ops 7 and Warzone

The next and third Black Ops 7 double XP event kicked off on Dec. 11 at noon CT and will end on Dec. 15 at the same time.

This is also the first double XP event since Warzone integrated with BO7 on Dec. 4 with the Season 1 update. During this time, you can enjoy double player and weapon XP, and it comes at an ideal time to boost progress in the Rally Point event.

The first double XP event kicked off on Nov. 21 and ended on Nov. 24, following the usual Friday to Monday schedule. Then, Activision gave us another double XP weekend during Thanksgiving and Black Friday in November 2025.

You can expect more of these events aligned with upcoming holidays and seasonal updates. You may as well bookmark this page to stay updated on all the ongoing and forthcoming double XP weekends in BO7.

All primary modes in Black Ops 7, including Multiplayer, Zombies, Endgame, and even the Co-Op Campaign, benefit from the double XP event. Most of the time, Warzone is included as well.

Players can focus on their favorite activities, whether that’s slaying zombies, dominating the leaderboard, or unlocking exclusive rewards across different challenges.​

Best BO7 game modes to farm XP during Double XP weekends

The best game modes to maximise on Double XP weekends are:

  • Kill Confirmed: This mode is one of the best because you earn XP for kills and get additional score for confirming dog tags, which can add up quickly with the right perks and UAV support.
  • Domination: Holding and contesting multiple objective points forces consistent combat engagement, spawning enemies near you for rapid kills and numerous defensive or offensive objective completions, all contributing large XP bonuses.
  • Hardpoint: This mode revolves around controlling a moving objective, rewarding continuous kills, captures, and defenses with high XP output.
  • Zombies Survival Maps: Using items like the Rampage Inducer to spawn more enemies and kiting them in smaller maps leads to rapid XP farming through efficient enemy kills.

So, what I would suggest is focusing on high-XP activities, such as completing challenges, camo tasks, and objective-based modes, to maximize double XP events. Also, play with friends and join large lobbies to take advantage of party XP bonuses.

Remember, double XP tokens don’t work during these events. When the global double XP event is active, Activision automatically disables the use of XP tokens, and any remaining token time is paused until the event ends.

You can boost your progress during double XP events by utilizing the meta weapons in Black Ops 7, and making sure you have these settings sorted before jumping into Multiplayer:
