Overview
- Patch notes on October 4 describe Open Moshpit as featuring drastically reduced skill consideration to create more varied match outcomes.
- Open Moshpit mirrors the regular Moshpit with the same maps (Imprint, Cortex, Exposure, The Forge) and modes (Team Deathmatch, Domination, Hardpoint, Kill Confirmed, Overload).
- The playlist is live in the beta for eligible players, including pre-purchasers and some Game Pass subscribers.
- Treyarch frames the change as a test during the beta, with its behavior and availability subject to change before launch.
- Early community feedback highlights faster queue times and a return to a classic feel, and analysts note this as Activision’s first public concession on SBMM.
