Progression is changing with the new Call of Duty, shares over games

Prestige that lasts, even across games. What you need to know Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is the next entry in the long-running first-person shooter franchise. The game brings the franchise back in time from the last title, but still has some new tricks and changes up its sleeve.
