Updates Coming This Week to Modern Warfare and Warzone

From a blog post that was posted by Stephanie Glover from Activision, there are many new updates coming to Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare. There will be a new “Ghost Pack Contingency” bundle coming to the store this week with two weapon blueprints which are a Legendary assault rifle and a new skin for Ghost. The original Hardhat multiplayer map is returning to Modern Warfare which was first featured in Modern Warfare 3. With this addition to the multiplayer maps, this will add another smaller map which will have much more action then the core maps that were released prior to Modern Warfare’s release. There will also be new weapons coming to the Gulag for Warzone with additions of the AK-47, M13, Kilo 141, Ram-7, Striker 45, and more to the gulag. Lastly, there will be a new game mode coming to Warzone called “Classic Battle Royal” which features no Buy Stations, no Contracts, and no Gulag. Call of Duty: Mobile also has released updates to their game which you can see here. You can check more gaming news out here.

All details regarding this week’s update by Activision:

The Lead: Modern Warfare

This week in Modern Warfare play a new Multiplayer map Hardhat, experience a new Gunfight battleground Aisle 9, collect the Cash as Blood Money Quads returns to Warzone, pick up a new classic look for Ghost in Store, and more. 

Operator Ghost in the ‘Classic Ghost’ skin, available in the Ghost Pack Contingency bundle

The ‘Ghost Pack Contingency’ bundle arrives to the store this week featuring two weapon blueprints including a Legendary assault rifle and a new skin that gives a Ghost a look that veterans will remember. The bundle includes 10 ghostly items, so you can customize your identity from your Operator to your emblem. Find the ‘Ghost Pack Contingency’ bundle in Store and take this look into the battlefield of Modern Warfare including Warzone. 

Hardhat, a Multiplayer map at the scene of construction site, is now available in its own 24/7 playlist. This map, first seen in Modern Warfare® 3, is a haven for close quarters, fast-paced, and frenetic combat, but also features some longer sightlines, so a variety of loadout types can find success. Re-experience Hardhat or jump in for the first time to learn the ins and outs of the map, and hopefully achieve victory in your next match. 

Aisle 9, the latest Gunfight map, is available in its own unique playlist – ‘Clean Up on Aisle 9’. The 3v3 playlist will host TDM, Kill Confirmed, Grind, and Domination, so players can discover multiple ways to fight on this small map. Aisle 9 will also be playable in the Gunfight map rotation, so stock up for a fight. 

Blood Money Quads drops back into Verdansk, so players can expand their trio. Find your fourth and get to collecting Cash, completing Contracts, and of course eliminating opponents to end up on top in Blood Money.

Two updates have arrived in Warzone – a change to Gulag weapons and a new item. 

First, players will now find SMGs and assault rifles in the Gulag. While you can still receive a shotgun or pistol, be aware that different weapon classes are now being handed out in this fight for your life. The new weapon choices include the AK-47, M13, Kilo 141, Ram-7, Striker 45, and more. SMGs and assault rifle both expand the range of engagements in the Gulag, so be careful if you decide to rush your opponent. 

The Armor Box is a new item available in all modes in Warzone.  Similar to a Munitions Box, this item can be used by the entire team to replenish their armor before or after an engagement. Find the Armor Box in ground loot, Supply Boxes, or purchase it at a Buy Station to make sure you’re protected before you get into a battle. 

Brush up on the fundamentals in a new limited-time mode – Classic Battle Royale. This mode strips down Battle Royale and features no Buy Stations, no Contracts, and no Gulag. If you’re out, you’re out. Survive the enemies and the ever-collapsing circle to be the last team standing.
