Call Of Duty is famous for making its leveling system very interesting and enticing to grind for with its Prestige Ranks, which is also the case with MW2 since its Season 1 update.
The leveling system also allows players to boast about their skills in a lobby, as the Prestige Rank Emblem will appear next to your ID. If you are curious about how you can get the Prestige Rank Emblem, read on, as we will answer all your queries.
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 – How To Prestige
Entering Prestige Mode in MW2 follows the same function as was in the previous Call Of Duty titles. For Prestige 1, you have to gain XP and level up your standard Military Ranks until Level 55, after which you level up once more, and you will automatically enter the Prestige Ranks.
The good news for all MW2 players is that the Prestige Ranks are not reset anymore with the new Season release, and the Emblems and Ranks are synced to the next Season. Furthermore, entering a Prestige Rank won’t lock any of your unlocked items in the game, unlike the previous Call of Duty games.
Keep in mind that you can’t keep your account from entering Prestige Rank once you reach the designated level for one.
Max Prestige Ranks in Modern Warfare 2
The Max Prestige is 9.
The max number of Prestige Ranks is limited, more of which get released with every Season of the game to raise the cap. After the Season 1 release, the max level you could reach was 250, which was raised to 450 in Season 2. If you’ve started the game after the release of Season 2, don’t worry since you can still unlock all previous Prestige Ranks and climb your way up!

Tips To Prestige Faster in MW2
Although entering Prestige is as simple as leveling up through the Military Ranks, leveling up can become quite bothersome occasionally.
To enter Prestige in MW2 as soon as possible, follow these basic tips to cut through the levels quickly:
- Play during Double XP events
- Complete challenges
- Play kill confirmed
Double XP
Double XP is something COD players love to fish whenever the game has it active. Using Double XP tokens wisely can aid you significantly in leveling up your Ranks and weapons much faster in the game. Furthermore, make sure to be active during the Double XP weekends to collect all that extra XP you can get.
Challenges
Completing challenges in MW2 grants a lot of XP to players, enabling you to Prestige much faster. You can complete three daily challenges for XP, which unlocks an additional challenge that would grant triple the amount of XP on completion. Moreover, be sure to complete the Spec Ops Daily Challenges for some more XP.

Kill Confirmed
The Kill Confirmed game mode can be immensely rewarding with the right setup. The only requirement is to take UAV, Counter UAV, and Cruise Missile as your Scorestreaks in a Kill Confirmed match.
This would allow you to cycle through these Scorestreaks rapidly when you can earn a score much faster by getting a kill (100 XP) and collecting your opponent’s dog tag (75 XP) or retrieving your teammate’s dog tag (25 XP). Furthermore, when your UAV and C-UAV are active, you’ll get an extra 30 XP for every kill your teammates make, stacking up on that XP bar even more.
With the method stated in this guide, you’ll know how simple it is to Prestige in COD MW2 and will get to it in no time. To check out more news and guides on MW2, make sure to check out N4G Unlocked.
