As an alternative of bragging rights and an emblem of expertise, Prestiging supplied unique Operator skins, weapon blueprints, and extra. There was additionally a particular reward package deal for gamers who reached stage 1000 of Status Grasp, with Treyarch retaining this blueprint and pores and skin hidden till the primary participant to succeed in stage 1000 unveiled it.

Some early BO6 Zombies XP exploits allowed gamers to stage up quicker, which is how stage 1000 was reached in only a few weeks.

Treyarch possible didn’t anticipate gamers to succeed in this summit only a few weeks after the launch of Black Ops 6, however that’s precisely what occurred, and the participant who achieved this lofty purpose was rewarded with the Samuels Operator. As a consequence of this character’s near-future armor and presence within the Black Ops 2 marketing campaign, it didn’t take lengthy for gamers to surmise that Name of Obligation 2025 can be a successor to the beloved 2012 launch, one thing that was finally confirmed months later. Whereas Treyarch possible anticipated stage 1000 to be reached nearer to the time of BO7’s full reveal, this intelligent try and tease its subsequent sport was nonetheless entertaining.

Black Ops 7 takes the very same method to Status rewards as its predecessor, that means that gamers will unlock new Operator skins, blueprints, and so forth each handful of ranges. It additionally means that there’s a new “secret” pores and skin to chase this 12 months, and going by what Treyarch did with this huge payoff throughout the BO6 period, there’s an actual probability that it makes use of BO7’s secret stage 1000 pores and skin as a teaser for what’s subsequent. Maybe it hints at a post-apocalyptic setting for Black Ops 7, with a personality in some raggedy, Fallout-like armor.
