Deciding to get healthier in 2025 came with no shortage of sacrifices I was prepared to make, but I did not anticipate one of them would be Call of Duty double XP.
It's been a good decade and change since I was last super into Call of Duty, but much like a churchgoer who only shows up for holidays, I still enjoy the little rituals: Scrolling past the campaign to play multiplayer with friends immediately, perusing the year's reconfigured perks, and accelerating the CoD relapse with double XP tokens extracted from a Monster Energy can.
