Earlier this month, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 players were happy to see that the Season 1 update included double XP tokens from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone. However, almost as soon as they were added to the game, the tokens were taken back out. In response to the vocal outcry from fans, Treyarch--Activision's developer for Black Ops 6--has explained why the tokens were pulled and when they may return.
Treyarch shared an update on X, where it revealed that the ability to activate legacy XP tokens was a bug that "introduced potential risk to game stability." The team behind the game is currently testing ways to reintroduce the feature without causing more bugs in the game. Additionally, the studio promised an additional update about the situation next week.
With the start of Season 01, a UI bug allowed players to activate legacy XP tokens in Black Ops 6. Unfortunately, it also introduced some potential risk to game stability, which is why it was patched yesterday.
