How to earn Prestige in Call Of Duty: Vanguard
Every new season will reset your Season Level to 1, allowing you to work your way back up and claim some more Prestige Ranks on the way. When this reset happens you’ll keep your existing Prestige Rank, which persists across seasons, along with any associated rewards you earned from previous seasons. Because Prestige Rank accumulates this way, the maximum Prestige Rank you can attain will increase with every season.
The developers have confirmed the maximum Prestige Ranks for current and upcoming seasons to be:
As in Black Ops Cold War, Vanguard will feature an integrated Prestige system across all multiplayer game modes, including Zombies; and at some point in the near futureWarzonewill be tied in to everything as well.
Prestige Ranks and Rewards in Vanguard
There are “only” 150 Season Levels in the Preseason, though from Season 1 onwards the usual 1000 Season Levels will be available to work through.
The rewards for reaching the Preseason’s Prestige Ranks are a good indicator of the sort of goodies you’ll be able to claim in full seasons later down the line:
In full seasons, you can expect to earn these sorts of rewards every 50 levels up to level 200.This developer blogsuggests that, unlike previous games, Vanguard’s rewards over the next 800 levels will give players a chance to catch up on Prestige content they missed out on in previous seasons.
There will also be twelve total Prestige Master Ribbons (six carried over and six new) to collect once Vanguard gets fully integrated with Warzone and Black Ops Cold War.
