Players in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and Warzone have recently discovered a new way to stand out during matches. A distinctive gold, triangular icon now appears in some Clan Tags, drawing attention across lobbies and social channels. This feature arrived with the launch of Season 1, introducing a fresh layer of customization to player identities.
Previously, Clan Tags were limited to basic letters, numbers, and symbols. The introduction of the gold emblem marks a notable shift in personalization options, prompting many to look for the method to unlock and equip it. Understanding how this feature works helps players keep up with the latest customization trends shaping the new season.
Unlocking the Gold Clan Tag in Black Ops 7
Players can obtain the Gold Clan Tag through the Season 1 BlackCell Battle Pass, an upgraded version of the standard Battle Pass. This premium tier grants access to multiple exclusive items not available in the regular version. Among these are 20 tier skips, unique Operator skins, weapon blueprints, cosmetic rewards, a custom HUD preset, and the coveted Gold Clan Tag.
The BlackCell upgrade costs $30 USD and delivers everything instantly upon purchase. Players with the Vault Edition of Black Ops 7 automatically receive the Season 1 BlackCell content at no extra cost. Even late adopters who buy the Vault Edition during Season 1 still gain access to BlackCell benefits.
| Edition | Included BlackCell | Additional Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | ❌ No | $30 upgrade required |
| Vault | ✅ Yes | Included in purchase |
When comparing value, players can consider alternatives. The BlackCell bundle is slightly more expensive than the 2,400 COD Points Battle Pass Bundle, but adds more exclusive rewards. Those planning to buy tier skips or collectible cosmetics may find the Gold Clan Tag and its related bonuses a worthwhile upgrade.
Equipping the Gold Clan Tag in Black Ops 7
Players who own the BlackCell Battle Pass in Season 1 can display a Gold Clan Tag by adjusting their profile settings. From the main lobby, they should move to the Career tab and open the Customize section. Inside, selecting Profile allows further personalization options.
In the profile settings, the Clan Tag box provides two tag types: a standard version or the BlackCell option. Choosing the BlackCell tag automatically enables the gold-colored emblem beside the player’s name once they return to the lobby screen.
| Step | Action | Menu Location |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Open Career tab | Main Lobby |
| 2 | Choose Customize | Career Menu |
| 3 | Select Profile | Customization Settings |
| 4 | Click Clan Tag | Profile Options |
| 5 | Equip BlackCell Tag | Displays Gold Icon |
This adjustment provides a clear visual distinction for players using the BlackCell upgrade.
