As found by Dexerto, a Reddit user named CranberryCarney received aCall of Duty: Warzone 2double XP token that lasts for a full year. The user was perhaps shocked to see it in their account and made a post hoping to find an answer. Some players thought it was an error on Activision’s side and asked CranberryCarney to use it as soon as possible in case it gets taken away. CranberryCarney did as advertised and posted a comment confirming that the token works.

As pointed out by some other fans, this double XP token isn’t a mistake and CranberryCarney won the prize as a part of aCall of Dutypromotional campaign with Mountain Dew. Only 13 of these tokens were made available, so the player was extremely lucky to have received this rare prize.

This deal may sound too good to be true, as there is a downside with the 1-year double XP token. According to the terms outlined on theCall of Dutywebsite, players only receive one hour of double XP each day for the next year, so a total of 365 hours of bonus XP. So, the rest of the bonus XP will likely be redundant due to the daily limit. Also, while this may seem like a lot of XP, CranberryCarney may reach themax level inWarzone 2andModern Warfare 2by simply playing the game regularly.

Call of Duty: Warzone 2is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
