Do you play Call of Duty: Vanguard besides other CoD titles? If so, you’d be happy to know that you can gain Military Ranks or Prestige levels for Vanguard when you’re playing any recent CoD games. In addition, the Marshal pistol has received some nerfs.
Synchronized Progression
Season 1 of Call of Duty: Vanguard and Warzone is kicking off very soon. One of the highlights of this update is earnable Military Ranks for Vanguard when playing Black Ops Cold War, Warzone, and Modern Warfare.
By rising through the ranks, you will unlock weapons, gain killstreaks, and acquire new equipment and other content by playing the recent Call of Duty title that you like the most.
Furthermore, if you played Vanguard before, you start the season at the Military Rank you’re currently at. If you’re new to the game, you will begin at Military Rank 1. At Military Rank 55, you will have a new Prestige Journey ahead of you, complete with new rewards and levels to unlock across all titles mentioned previously.
When you decide to play in Black Ops Cold War, every Prestige Level will award you with some stuff, including a Prestige Key, Tier Skip, Emblem, and Sticker. At Season Level 50 in Season One, you will unlock the exclusive Duck Hunt Shotgun Weapon Blueprint, which you can use in either Vanguard or Warzone.
