Overview
- The MW4-linked Warzone update will go live Friday, Nov. 6 at 5am UK time and arrives with Season 1 as confirmed by developers.
- Two new maps from MW4 — Hajin for battle royale and Zodiac for Resurgence — are added at launch while Verdansk and Rebirth Island are scheduled to return mid-season.
- MW4 weapons and mechanics, including the ability to drag downed allies, will become the main Warzone loot pool while older weapons remain usable but cannot be edited in Gunsmith.
- The update introduces gameplay changes such as a Zipline Launcher field upgrade, perk rebalancing, and MW4 killstreaks, and developers say they will continue tuning balance after launch.
- Because DMZ and MW4 are paid content, players who bought the full game may start with loadout and progression advantages, and earlier prelaunch patches for DMZ highlight that further fixes and adjustments are likely as the ecosystem settles.
