The Hidden XP Mystery
Call of Duty has kept the exact XP requirement secret this time—you won’t see specific numbers showing how much XP you need. This creates suspense but can frustrate players who want to track exact progress.
What We Know:
- XP accumulates across all game modes
- Progress is account-wide (works in both Black Ops 6 and Warzone)
- There’s no way to skip progression—everyone must grind
- Premium Track purchase (1100 COD Points) doesn’t fast-track free rewards

- Use Double XP tokens if available
- Play during Double XP weekends
- Focus on game modes you excel at for consistent performance
Daily Play Sessions: Consistent daily play accumulates XP faster than sporadic marathon sessions due to potential daily bonuses.

Event Duration and Deadline
The Chucky event has a limited runtime. While the exact end date varies by season schedule, Halloween events typically run 2-3 weeks. Check your in-game event timer regularly to ensure you complete the grind before Spirit Pumpkin becomes unavailable.
Pro Tip: Don’t wait until the final days—server issues or unexpected life events could prevent last-minute grinding.

FAQs
Q1: Can I unlock the Spirit Pumpkin Operator skin without spending money?
Yes! The Spirit Pumpkin is completely free and serves as the final reward on the Chucky event’s free track. You don’t need to purchase COD Points or the Premium Track. Simply play Black Ops 6 or Warzone to earn XP, which progressively unlocks all 10 free track rewards. While Call of Duty hasn’t disclosed the exact XP requirement, consistent gameplay across any mode (multiplayer, zombies, or battle royale) will eventually unlock the skin for free.
Q2: Does buying the Premium Track help me unlock Spirit Pumpkin faster?
No, purchasing the 1100 COD Point Premium Track does not accelerate your progress toward the Spirit Pumpkin skin. The Premium Track only adds 10 additional exclusive rewards—it doesn’t skip or fast-track the XP grinding required for free track items. Both free-to-play and Premium Track buyers must earn the same amount of XP to unlock Spirit Pumpkin, making it an equal grind for everyone regardless of spending.
