Treyarch is extending Call of Duty Black Ops 6's double XP event after identifying an issue that "occasionally" limited the amount of bonus XP awarded to some players.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 marks the return of developers Treyarch and Raven, a project four years in the making since Black Ops Cold War. In that time, there's been a technical upheaval of sorts.

Using IW9, we'll soon see the gameplay systems in Black Ops 6's campaign roll out to its battle royale mode as well, including the so-called omni-movement that lets players sprint and dive in all directions.
