With every new Call of Duty comes hordes of players racing to reach a handful of key milestones, like unlocking each Mastery Camo or earning the first nuke killstreak. The most coveted achievement of them all, however, is conquering all Prestige ranks. While this should have taken months to complete, Black Ops 6‘s premier challenge has already been conquered and its secret rewards revealed – unfortunately, it looks like it might not be worth subjecting yourself to the grind.
Having ten standard Prestige levels and the arduous Prestige Master following up with 1,000 additional levels, Black Ops 6 threatens to consume your time with its lengthy grind. On the bright side, it’s debuted as one of the best multiplayer games out right now, so the Black Ops 6 Prestige grind isn’t all bad – so long as you’re not doing it for the rewards.
Please note that this article contains spoilers from hereon in.
While the journey to Prestige Master features some great Operator skins, the same can’t be said about its final tier. A player known as ‘Aldredd’ (also known as ‘Beamishh’ on X) has attained this monumental achievement, and you can judge for yourself whether you’ll be taking on the challenge, too. Note that the player admits that they exploited a series of Zombies glitches to achieve this.
For reaching Prestige Master level 1,000, you will earn the Eric Samuels Operator, a PP-919 blueprint, a spray and emblem, as well as a Gobblegum pack. Who’s Eric Samuels, you ask? Well, he’s a Secret Service Agent from Black Ops 2’s legendary campaign.
It’s certainly a surprise to see Samuels as the pinnacle reward rather than Mason or Hudson given how iconic they are in the Black Ops series, though perhaps it’s teasing his potential return in Black Ops 7. In fact, I’m much more excited about the Sitting Bull Reborn skin for Marshall that you’ll unlock just for reaching Prestige Master, let alone grinding 1,000 more levels.
The PP-919 blueprint is also rather tame compared to what you can find in the in-game store, further ruining my excitement to ever reach the max level. Thankfully, the PP-919 is at least one of the best Black Ops 6 loadouts right now, so it’s probably worth grabbing either way.

If these somewhat disappointing rewards haven’t dissuaded you yet, then you’ll want to keep up with all the latest Black Ops 6 events and BO6 double XP tokens to race through levels in the FPS game.
