  • There is no word yet as to when the next Double XP weekend will be.

Like earlier Call of Duty titles, Modern Warfare 3 allows players to rack up more experience points during special events held regularly throughout the year. Double XP weekends let you earn twice as much XP as usual in matches. This includes working towards objectives or taking down enemies across its multiplayer modes. You’ll notice unique indicators highlighting “Double XP” events when they occur. Usually, the developers automatically apply bonuses for the weekend, which they also announce in advance.

When is the next Double XP weekend?

The current Double XP weekend started on Thursday, May 23, 2024, and will be live till Monday, June 3, 2024. The event ends at 10 AM PT | 1 PM ET | 6 PM BST. The good news is that Double XP weekends are pretty common, with recent cadence suggesting at least one of them every month. That means we can expect to see another event in June or early July.

How to get Double XP

To get more XP during the Double XP event weekends, simply play the online multiplayer modes. During the event, the game modes will highlight which ones have Double XP. Apart from the weekend event, you can also earn bonus XP tokens from:

  • Complete single-player campaign mode
  • Battle pass tiers
  • Promotional items

Can you stack Double XP tokens during Double XP weekends?

Note that you cannot use these tokens during a Double XP weekend and stack these effects up. So save these tokens for regular days when there’s no such promotion. Doing so will let you earn twice the player XP or weapon XP to improve specific weapons at your convenience. Reaching closer to the MW3 max level gets you access to new weapons, killstreaks, and other gear. You can also work on challenges for Armory challenges, unlocking Aftermarket Parts, or new camo skins for your gear.
