Call of Duty developers Treyarch have announced the starting and ending dates for the first Double Weapon XP event in Black Ops 4.

In a tweet put out on November 15, Treyarch revealed that 2X Weapon XP is coming his weekend, with the event slated to start Friday, November 15 at 10 AM PT and last until 10 AM PT on Monday, November 19.

The promo event is for both Multiplayer and Zombies, and will be live across all platforms – PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

In addition, the tweet also revealed that a “very special” 2XP event is coming next week, although no other details about it are available at this time.

“We’re prepping for a very special 2XP event next week,” the tweet reads. “And starting tomorrow, it’s time to unlock those Operator Mods and Kill Counters even faster.”

As the tweet alludes to, with 2X Weapons XP players can level up their weapons faster and unlock attachments sooner.

Once maxed out, the Operator Mods for weapons that have them are unlocked, and players can also prestige their guns to activate a special Kill Counter.

This is the third promo event that Black Ops 4 has had since its release on October 12, with the other two being 2XP and 2X Tiers Boost weekends respectively.

As for the 2XP event scheduled for next week, time will tell what Treyarch have in store for the Call of Duty community, and by calling it “very special,” they are setting the expectation that it will be a level up (no pun intended) from what we’ve been given previously.
