Before Sector 23 in the Battle Pass becomes available, players must first unlock the adjacent nodes. This can be achieved by using 15 Battle Token Tier Skips, which can be earned by playing any mode in MW3 multiplayer, MW3 Zombies, or Warzone.

The BAL-27 can be obtained without purchasing the Season 3 Battle Pass. It is a free unlock once players reach the sector and complete its challenges. However, purchasing the pass for at least 1,100 COD Points will provide players with a 10% XP boost and allow them to earn Battle Token Tier Skips at a faster rate.
