Levelling up and trying out new unlocks is one of the most exciting aspects of Call of Duty’s multiplayer and Call of Duty: Vanguard is no exception. Advancing through level progression unlocks loadouts, perks, lethal and tactical grenades, weapons and brand new ‘Covenants’, which are a brand-new addition to Zombies mode. We’ve put a guide together to explain how the level cap and Prestige works and listed all unlocks in Call of Duty: Vanguard below.
Still not sure about the game? Check out our Call of Duty: Vanguard review.
What is the Max Level in Call of Duty: Vanguard?
The max level in Call of Duty: Vanguard is Level 55: Commander. After hitting the level cap, Prestige works in the same way as 2019’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and beyond. By level 55, all loadout items will be unlocked and the player will enter Seasonal Prestige levels, which, as the name suggests, reset at the end of each season.
The max Seasonal Prestige level is currently unknown, but if it’s anything like Call of Duty: Cold War, it should be around 1,000.
