As part of the Season 1 Reloaded update, players noticed a new loyalty bonus for those who repeatedly buy theBlackCell Battle Pass.

For those unaware, the BlackCell pass is a more expensive version of the regular Battle Pass. While the regular Battle Pass costs around 1,100 CoD points (equivalent to just under £9), the BlackCell pass comes to around £25.99 / $29.99.
