Your choice of a display name is one of the most crucial elements of your CoD <\/em>build, along with weapons and perks. Sometimes, you may want to change this title, whether because of an embarrassing decision you made in your younger days or the desire for a simple refresher.<\/p>

Whatever your reason, you have the power to change your display name in Black Ops 6<\/em>. Here’s how.<\/p>

How do you change your display name in BO6?<\/h2><\/iframe>

You can change your display name on the Activision website or in-game<\/strong>. To do so in-game, go to Settings and choose ‘Account & Network’. Select ‘Activision Account’ to reach the Change Display Name page. Using the Token system<\/strong>, you’ll only have roughly two chances to alter your display name in BO6<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>

One Token lets you change your name, requiring you to restart the game after initiating the alteration. You’ll receive two of these items at the beginning of your Black Ops 6<\/a><\/em> journey. Then, you’ll get another Token after every six months. Since this feature is relatively limited, it’s best to double-check your username to get the right one for you.<\/p>

You may also change your BO6<\/em> display name when logging into your Activision account<\/a> via PC<\/a> or mobile. Head to your Profile section and press ‘Basic Info’. Scroll down to Activision ID and change it from there. The Tokens rule still applies here, with a limit of two annual alterations. You’ll need to verify your email to access specific Activision features like this if you cannot change it.<\/p>

In some cases, you may receive an automatic requirement to change your display name, as several players<\/a> have encountered this occurrence. Those who get this prompt likely have an inappropriate title, so they must find a better-suited one. You won’t be able to access the game otherwise, or Activision may change the title for you.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
